My son is going to ask his girlfriend to marry him. He is 37, she is 42 with four kids (two teenagers, and two older). He wants to do it in a romantic way, without crowds and family around. Neither of them drink so Champagne is out. Any ideas?

Not sure, but I can tell you how my husband proposed. He drove me down Route 66 down a pretty scenic part of the road, then we stopped at a scenic overlook. He then gave me a card that he wrote about how much he loved me. When I was done reading it, I looked up to see he was on his knee. It was a perfect moment.

Do a scavenger hunt. Have her visit places where they've shared special moments. At each place, have one of her kids meet her (oldest to youngest) and join her from that point on. At the final place, he can be waiting for her with whatever "crowd" he wants, and then he can pop the question. Her head will be swimming with the romance of the night and the fun times they've had, and she won't be able to say anything but yes. Good luck!

a walk in the park.
I like nature. So a walk in the park, by a stream, or in a gazebo.
Someplace private and quiet at the right moment. He kind of has to set the scene. Look up at the stars outside while sitting on a blanket. You know that type of thing works well.

You should have him take her to the beach for a day, and just as the sun is setting, do the proposal. My cousins did that, and it worked out perfectly. It makes a perfect romantic theme.

Though I appreciate your desire to help.....If he is asking his Mom for help, as he is the one who is supposed to know her best in her heart of hearts..... there is an issue. This is the moment where a man stands up and says "I want to be your husband". If she found out that his mother came up with an idea, instead of him it does not bode well for having a strong confident husband. Its supposed to come from his heart of hearts as to what he does. It smacks lightly of Mamas boy and mother-in-law interference. As a women you should realize this. Not trying to be mean, just a thought.

He can take her away for the weekend, that way no one will be around, and propose then.
