I have the ring, now I just need to finalize the proposal.
My girlfriend and I are traveling to NYC from the West Coast a few days before Christmas. I have never been to the city and she lived there for a few years. She absolutely loves the city and this trip is a way for her to show me around. Anyway, we have spoken about getting engaged, but my response has been we need a little time to get things in order. She has accepted this response and has no idea I plan on asking during our trip.
So, now is the difficult part. Since I do not know much about the city, she''s going to be the one planning most things. I tend to be more spontaneous then she is, so I am thinking I can use this when we are there as this wouldn''t cause much of an alarm. Kind of like the kid who sees something shiny and wants to go see what it is as.
We are staying near Central Park as this is her favorite place in the city. I do not want to do it in a carriage due to the possible smells. Also, she does not like huge crowds so probably not anything too public. With this being the case, I think the Rockefeller Tree is out, Empire State Building and the other "touristy" proposal spots.
I want to propose before dinner and then go to a romantic restaurant. It will be out first day there so we will be going throughout the city all day.
So, does anyone have any recommendations for proposals in the city, not too public, maybe near or including Central Park? Is there anything that has live piano, violin or similar music? I want to try and take into account the weather possibility as well.
Thank you for all the help.
