Adding Some Celtic Magic To Your Feb. 14th Proposal
You don’t have to go to a lot of trouble creating the right atmosphere, as long as you’ve found the perfect Celtic engagement ring.
Your proposal can be made more special by simply tucking a little note into the ring’s special gift box – consider writing (or speaking!) some words in Gaelic – Mo Anam Cara is a great choice here.
These words mean, My Soul Mate, and they will become a part of your proposal forever. You can even choose a gent’s wedding band engraved with the same meaningful words.
Some other great ideas include – playing some lovely Irish music – it doesn’t have to be a traditional “drinking tune” – in fact, it probably shouldn’t be that sort of song! Instead, opt for modern Irish music, such as Enya’s classic Orinoco Flow:
Keeping your Celtic proposal subtle and romantic will help Cupid’s arrow hit its target on Valentine’s Day. A simple line of Gaelic script, some dreamy music, sung by an Irishwoman, and perhaps some Irish Coffees or pints of Guinness will be all you need to celebrate this incredible moment on Feb. 14th.
If you’re of Scottish or Welsh heritage, simply adjust these tips for your ancestral country. For example, Scottish music, tartans (you could wear a kilt!), and a couple of drams of whiskey could make things special. A bunch of wild Scottish Heather tied with a ribbon would make a lovely keepsake as you ask her to be your wife.
For those of Welsh ancestry, consider downloading some traditional Welsh harp music or folk music, and serving some Welsh rarebit or Bara Brith (sweet cakes), along with a lovely cup of tea or other beverage. Simply taking the time to add these little details will make your proposal special.
Pamper her and make her feel like a queen before you ask her to marry you on Valentine’s Day. And be certain to let her know what the Trinity Knots on her new engagement ring signify!
