Does your girlfriend love the renaissance fair? Does she dream of fairy tales of her knight in shining armor? Medieval proposals can be one of the most fun things to do! And if she loves medieval times, then you’ll score a lot of points with her.
Have you ever been to the renaissance fair? There are several of them in the United States. Everyone who goes there is encouraged to wear costumes or dress up in outfits from that time period. This is a perfect place to propose to her. Tell him you want to go get your tickets. He then spends some time with her choosing costumes for the two of them to wear. Talk about how wonderful it will be one day with the two of you going there and feeling like you’re in another time period. Compliment her on her costume a few times and keep telling her that you can’t wait to see her in him at the fair. You really want him to get excited about going.
Call the fair ahead of time and let them know you plan to make a medieval marriage proposal. Ask them if there’s anything they do for proposals, or if there’s anything you can include in one of their shows. There are many things at these fairs that ask for audience members, so this could be a great opportunity for you to ask her to marry you. If they don’t offer anything like this, try to get to the fair a day before both of you are going. Walk around for an hour and see what the scenery is like, where the crowds form, if there are any secluded spots, etc. This way, when you get there, you’ll know exactly where you want to go to propose to her. You finally have your knight in shining armor!
Another great idea is to call Medieval Times. They are a company that performs shows in the United States and they have several locations. It is a fun and entertaining event for everyone to enjoy. Seating is arena style and they serve food before the event starts. The food comes out on medieval plates with glasses to drink from. You get a very medieval feel throughout the meal as the waitresses come to wait for you. After dinner, the event begins and the knights go out into the arena! A night of jousting, sword battles, ground combat and even romance follows. Ask them if they have any marriage proposal packages you can get. This whole event is very heavy on crowd participation, so it wouldn’t even be out of the ordinary if both of them were asked to do something. Most likely, she will have no idea what is going on until she actually gets down on one knee and asks her to marry you. Not only will you have the ambient effect in your favor, but also a standing ovation from the entire arena. That’s a great way to start a good life together!
You don’t always have to go that big either. You can have a renaissance proposal without spending a hundred dollars. Search your geographic location for anything that is Celtic and also has that ancient feeling. There are Celtic fairs that take place throughout the year that you can attend. There are also some Celtic estates where people go to meditate, walk or spend a quiet afternoon reading a book. These types of places are great as they are outdoors and usually have some extraordinary landscaping or decor. Proposing by the murmuring creek or on top of the hill as the sun goes down will give good dramatic effects at this time.
So there are a few ways to incorporate a medieval or renaissance theme into proposing to your girlfriend. Rest assured that if you take the time to plan, things will go well for you. I wish you the best of luck! Let us know how it works!
