Now, that you have found the one and you are really in love, do you want to get the relationship to the next level? Well, it’s something good to behold your affection to one another. A proposal is in many ways as momentous as the wedding itself. Getting it right is paramount. It is something to remember for a lifetime.
Planning is essential if the proposal is to yield the expected outcome. The considerations to make include; your other half’s likes, your budget (you don’t need to break the bank for it), the safety of the place you intend to propose at, etc. You should settle on somewhere you’re both comfortable. A place you know will work for both of you and most importantly, one that won’t scream of the impending proposal. It has to be a surprise to remember.
The "Big Apple" offers incredible stunning views, many beautiful structures and many excellent restaurants that would be ideal for a perfect proposal. Here are some of the best places to propose to her in New York.
Bryant Park
Bryant Park is an oasis of tranquility away from the hustles of the city. High-rise skyscrapers surround it. Bryant Park is behind the New York public library between the 41st and 42nd street and 6th avenue. Being a city park, Bryant Park features many historical monuments as well as a variety of urban amenities.
The park is set-up to offer numerous options for fun-filled sessions. There are incredible lawns, clean pavements and plenty of beautiful spots.

You may opt for a flash mob proposal. A choreographed flash mob appears in a seemingly spontaneous way. The mob will then perform her favorite song and after a delightful performance, the flash mob presents you with the opportunity to pop the question.
Times Square Billboard Proposal
Times Square embodies the rush that is synonymous with New York. Located in central Manhattan, Times Square is one of the most famous destinations in New York. During the day, the place can be overwhelming. There are enormous crowds, huge billboards, and plenty of noise.
However, the night ushers in the pristine beauty of Times Square. Numerous neon bulbs, theatre ads, and enormous billboards light-up the Square making it look amazing. It is a famous spot for proposals.

In other words, this proposal proclaims your love to the entire world. And is sure not for the shy ones. The billboard proposal service is offered at a fee by a few companies. For convenience, you will need to contact them and iron out details to do with the proposal in advance
