If you didn't read yesterday's, be sure to start there to read Part 1 on perfect wedding proposals. Engagement Planning is a somewhat new service being offered by wedding planners, like Creative Celebrations, Inc., to ensure magic from engagement through the honeymoon. Engagement planning can make a big difference in the small details...my real life example: My hubby, John, did a great job. But, I will say that a few elements (only a few) were missing. He rented a limo (it turned out to be a lemon so he ended up driving me); he took me to the spa for a massage/facial (but massages tend to make you sleepy); he took me to the park for a picnic and planned to proposal at sundown (but he didn't pay attention and the sun was already down); he had a stranger take pics from a tree using a disposable camera - yeah - no focus so you know those pics didn't turn out at all. After I said yes, we headed to The Palm where our close friends and family met us for a private dinner. John did a great job. It was memorable but 1) most guys don't plan this well and 2) there were a few minor tweaks that could have made it simply amazing like having a professional photographer w/a super zoom at the park. My point an engagement planner can help the groom propose in a way that will be memorable, sentimental and a personal representation of what makes your relationship special OR simply add small but needed details that are needed.
Plus, hiring an engagement planner allows you to rapport with your chosen wedding planner on a smaller project before your wedding, so that you know whether they are perfect for you. Gals need inspiration...Guys need action items. Grooms, here are your actions items - 1) Write down: what makes your relationship unique, how you met, what the two of you value, what you do that makes her smile and vice versa...you get the idea. 2) Contact Creative Celebrations to speak with an Engagement Planner and see how they can help plan with the wedding proposal of a lifetime.

They can work with the groom-to-be to develop the wedding proposal of a lifetime - whether it's concept or execution.

Good event coordinators will help make your dreams a reality while ensuring your plan is well thought and well resourced. Two more wedding proposals that represent the couples' personalities
The TV proposal - wouldn't have worked for me because I am much more private and like sentimental over glam but he knew her and made it happen!
The Video Proposal: Are you two cheesy, corny and silly? Something like this might work for you. I can tell a lot about them...by this proposal!
