School is starting, the weather is sort of cooling down, and the summer is coming to an end. So why is Labor Day Weekend the perfect time to propose? Here are three reasons!
1. Good Weather. While good weather isn’t guaranteed, you have a long weekend to enjoy the outdoors. Go on a hike, plan some “couples pictures” that turn into a proposal session, or plan a family/friends picnic. Get outside and enjoy each other’s company while you have the three days– taking a short break from work and returning on Tuesday to let them know you had the best Monday ever!
2. Family & Friends. Everyone gets a three-day weekend when it comes to Labor Day (for the most part, of course there are always exceptions). While it’s wonderful to have a private proposal moment, if you come from a group of friends who is super close to your relationship, or close-knit families, it’s a great time to include them! Do you have a family tradition for the three-day weekend? Add your proposal on to that agenda!
3. Long Weekend. This is the perfect time to take a mini-vacation to enjoy the end of summer, beginning of fall, and all that jazz! Go somewhere relaxing that’s within driving distance for the three-days. When the time is right, pop the question! How perfect to get away and come back with an engagement announcement.

I completely agree with this! If you’re going to present your lady with a fabulous rock, might as well make a great show of it, right? I especially love how it’s the perfect time to include your close family and friends. That ring needs an audience! Plus ladies just love public proposals, too. Best of luck to you!
