5 Most Romantic Ways to Propose on Bald Head Island

You finally found the one you want to spend the rest of your life with. After almost a year of insanity and lock down there is no doubt this person is “the one”. You have the ring. Now all you need is the perfect way to propose. With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, why not pop the question on beautiful, secluded Bald Head Island. Here are a few, tried and true, romantic ideas to get an “I do”.

The pristine beaches of Bald Head Island are a beautiful place to propose. Plan a walk on the beach to catch the sunset. Timing is everything! Make it to the spot where you’ve written “Will You Marry Me?” in the sand just as the sun goes down. When unexpectantly turning around, you’ll be on one knee with ring in hand!

If you’re an adventurous couple surprise your love with an exciting scavenger hunt through Maritime Forest Preserve. Start off with a simple hike through the woods when you spot a clue. One clue leads to the next, ending with a picnic beneath an enchanting canopy of trees where the ring is found, and the question is asked.

For history buffs and something truly unique plan a romantic proposal at the top of Old Baldy. Climb 108 stairs to experience unparalleled views of the surrounding waterways. Getting engaged at the top of a historic lighthouse, now that’s a story you both will never get tired telling!

If you’re a couple who loves gourmet meals and are true foodies, then option four is for you. A romantic dinner for two at The Bald Head Island Grill. Dine exclusively on fresh seafood, Filets grilled to perfection, and fine wine. At the end of the night a delicious dessert is delivered. Chocolate Sable, Espresso Pastry cream, and “will you marry me” etched on the plate with white chocolate sauce. Delicious enough to prompt a loud yes for all to hear!

If you want to include family and friends on the occasion, then put them to work! Go paddle boarding or kayaking and propose in the middle of the ocean. When you get back to shore have family and friends holding up signs that say: “Congratulations” or “Was the answer yes”!

Book a cozy Bald Head Island vacation rental with romantic views of the Atlantic. Then pop the big question however you choose. Bald Head Island wishes you good luck and a happy engagement. Now let’s talk about a fabulous wedding on Bald Head Island!
