Why people are opting for simple marriage proposals now

Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are already winning hearts with their surprise pregnancy announcement. Alia posted a picture on her Instagram handle where she is seen smiling ear-to-ear with her beau, Ranbir in tow, in front of a sonography machine. Everyone from the industry sent wishes their way!

But after a few hours of the announcement, Alia changed her previous Instagram profile picture to the current one, which is in fact, her and Ranbir’s proposal picture! Ranbir Kapoor’s mother, Neetu Kapoor also shared the same picture on her profile, and netizens flooded the comments with love. Their happy, simple, proposal photo is an inspiration for many. Let’s find out how simple marriage proposals are taking precedence over grand ones now.

2/5

A personal touch

Some couples prefer marriage proposals to be simple because it gives a more personal touch to the relationship. These people prefer the proposal to be a special moment that is shared only between partners.

3/5

It puts off the pressure to say ‘yes’

When there’s a public proposal in hand, there is the added pressure of saying ‘yes’ to your partner who has gone done on one knee to present you with a beautiful ring. In such a circumstance, the proposal may not end up being as special as they want it to be, with the prying eyes of other people in public.

4/5

‘Just us’ is more important than a grand proposal

Some couples love a grand wedding proposal with fireworks in the background, people cheering on and congratulating the couple. Whereas, some people love the quiet, calm and peace, because they feel they want to have the most beautiful and important decision of their life in an intimate setting; that’s where the choice to have a simple proposal triumphs.

5/5

The fondness of a familiar place

Proposing to your partner at a place where it holds a special memory can be one of the best ways to propose, in an intimate setting. Take your partner on a stroll to that place and when you reach that spot, where you both hold beautiful, happy memories, propose to them!
