WOOHOO I PROPOSED! See the last post in this thread for details. What follows is the original "where to propose in SAn Diego thread"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
My gf lives in Los Angeles, and she'll be visiting me in San Diego several weekends in a row, so if I can get a ring, I'd like to propose to her in San Diego. I have a free one night stay at the Hilton San Diego in the Gaslamp quarter that I was planning to make use of. Both of us work long hours during the week and we won't have the energy for anything super involved or athletic, like driving out to Cabos or kayaking in Mission Bay or such. I was thinking of Blue Point Coastal Cuisine (expensive Calif seafood restaurant) for dinner on Saturday night, then somewhere to propose, then to the hotel to celebrate. The "somewhere to propose" is the part I need help with. I was thinking maybe a bar/lounge with a birds eye view or an ocean view for a drink and a the proposal. Or should I propose before the fancy dinner? Or maybe a fancy dinner at George's at the Cove (gotta find out when sunset is) and propose there.
I don't think she would want a highly public or crowded proposal, so maybe the George's idea is no good.
Any gratuitous San Diego or California oriented ring and diamond buying advice would be appreciated (aiming for 1.2c round FGH VS2, solitaire platinum band)
Help!
