Spring is a beautiful time to propose to the love of your life. As the weather warms and the flowers bloom, it feels like the world is starting anew. It’s the perfect energy for the start of a new chapter as a freshly engaged couple. 

If you’re wondering where to propose this spring, we’re here to help. We’ve gathered up 6 proposal destinations that make the most of the season’s charms. Each location is paired with a matching engagement ring, so you can find a ring as captivating as your proposal locale. 

 

Paris

Paris is one of the most romantic cities in the world–and spring happens to be one of the best times to visit the City of Love. In Spring, the weather is lovely and Paris is bustling, but the city is also less crowded than it is during tourist-heavy summer. 

The Eiffel Tower (or a place with a view of the Eiffel tower) is a classic Parisian proposal spot. We also recommend considering one of Paris’s beautiful city gardens, such as Luxembourg Gardens or Tuileries Garden. These gorgeous gardens have Parisian charm, natural beauty, and a serene atmosphere. 

Capture the elegance of Paris with this art deco inspired ring from the Lori collection. With curving band details reminiscent of the Eiffel tower’s elegant shape, it’s a ring that will truly capture your love story. 

 

Napa Valley

Napa Valley’s wine country has stunning scenery and over 400 world-class wineries. It also happens to have a thriving hot air balloon scene, giving you the option of proposing on a hot air balloon ride. If you’re looking for a romantic proposal idea that’s sure to thrill, popping the question while taking in breathtaking views from a hot air balloon is an ideal choice. 

This nature-inspired design from the Dahlia collection calls to mind the beauty of Napa Valley’s meticulously maintained vineyards. Featuring perfect symmetry and beautiful detail, this engagement ring will be an heirloom right from the start. 

 

Maui

Maui is covered in crystal clear beaches and lush tropical landscapes, so you have no shortage of beautiful backdrops to choose from for your proposal. Consider proposing on the beach at sunset, where you can enjoy the natural beauty of the ocean as it’s bathed in warm golden light. Keep it intimate and private by having it be just the two of you, or coordinate with a proposal photographer that can capture engagement pictures once the special moment begins.

This bohemian ring from the Dahlia collection is a gorgeous, whimsical choice for a Hawaiian proposal. This ring’s leaf accents and floating center stone combine to create the impression of a glittering diamond pineapple. 

 

Newport Beach

Head to Newport Beach’s Crystal Cove State Park and enjoy picturesque views of Crystal Cove Beach. You can pick the perfect proposal location in advance or get down on one knee whenever the moment feels right. 

This three-stone design from the Stella collection is a classic piece with a special touch. This ring features delicate pear cut blue sapphire accent stones, which will serve as a reminder of your beachy proposal spot for years to come.

Glamorous and bold, this design from the Lori collection is perfect for a New York City proposal. This ring’s linear detailing captures the look of city skyscrapers, while swirling milgrain detailing ensures a romantic feeling.

With the city’s rich culture and famously good weather, there are endless opportunities for memorable outdoor proposals in the City of Angels.
