5 Cozy Fall Proposal Ideas

It's always sad to see the end of summer, but it's hard not to get excited about the beginning of fall. Cozy weather and beautiful scenery make this one of the most romantic times of the year.

Perfect if you're planning to propose to that special someone. Make it a moment you both will never forget with one of these fall proposal ideas.

1. Horseback Riding

A relaxing ride through the countryside or mountains is the ideal way to appreciate the gorgeous fall colors.

Arrange to take a leisurely horseback riding excursion for two. When you stop to take in the view, surprise her with a stunning engagement ring set.

2. Camping

Take advantage of your last chance to go camping before the winter weather sets in. Drive to a campsite with plenty of warm gear, or go the glamping route and rent a secluded cabin with a fireplace.

Enjoy this blissful one-on-one time together with no distractions. Open a bottle of wine, start a fire and make gourmet s'mores with her favorite kind of chocolate. Propose over the firelight.

3. Local Flavor

Find a nearby brewery or winery, and make a reservation for a private tour and tasting. 

Sample the fall-themed beers or the most recent vintage, then arrange for the staff to bring you glasses of something special you know she'll like. Pair your toast with a diamond engagement ring.

4. Corn Maze

Find a fall corn maze near where you live, and have a blast running through it like little kids. When you get lost in the maze, away from the crowd, tell her you want to take a short break. 

Then get down on one knee with the gorgeous engagement ring set she'll love.

5. Surprise Trip

Plan a day trip to a place you've never been before, but don't tell her where you're going. Pick a charming small town or a city with a lot of character. 

Stock the car with her favorite snacks and tunes, and enjoy a scenic drive with a backdrop of changing leaves. Have a romantic lunch, then explore the town on foot. Find a quiet spot to pop the question.
