You have decided to make one of the most important commitments of your life. It's time to buy the engagement ring (if you haven't already) and start conceptualizing where you want to propose. We have some great ideas about some of the best places to pop the question in Colorado. Botanic Gardens, Denver The Denver Botanic Gardens delights in entertaining us while spreading the collective wisdom of the Gardens through outreach, collaboration, and education. If the person you want to propose to is interested in botany, then this is the perfect place. From spring through fall, the Botanic Gardens hosts multiple weddings in multiple places, which may give you some ideas for your wedding day. Over the winter, the Christmas lights attracts a large crowd. There's a cost to take pictures at the Botanic Gardens, so be prepared.
Hanging Lake, Glenwood Canyon
Imagine proposing at a geologic wonder with awe-inspiring beauty and gentle waterfalls. Hanging Lake is on the edge of Glenwood Canyon's cliffs, the clear turquoise lake, and the waterfalls that spill into it. This is one of Colorado's most iconic hikes, so imagine your trail leads to a Caribbean blue pool. After you take in the majestic sights of the lake, just follow the trail to a waterfall that you can walk behind. Enjoy the mist and its fabulous prisms of color, get down on one knee, and make your dreams come true.
Maroon Bells, Aspen
Magical is a word to describe Maroon Bells, which is a series of distinctive bell-shaped, wine-colored peaks towering 14,000 feet above the pristine Maroon Valley. There are six scenic hiking trails where you can pop the question to the love of your life. Explore and discover how a 300-million-year-journey through jagged stone continues to inspire people from around the world. Pick the trail, and start planning your fairytale proposal!
Pikes Peak, Colorado Springs
Pikes Peak is a 14er with amazing views that would be perfect for a once-in-a-lifetime proposal. Some say that it is best to propose with a view of Pikes Peak rather than on it. But we say that you should propose wherever you feel the magic. The key to this location is proposing at the right time of the day. As you know, after 11 a.m., the risk increases for passing thunderstorms, but the sunsets later in the day make for a perfect backdrop.
Red Rocks Park, Morrison
If this is the place where you took your beloved on dates, it will be a memorable place to ask the big question. Views at Red Rocks are best at sunset when the cityscape lights of Denver start to twinkle, just like the diamond you're about to propose with. Keep in mind that you will need to check the calendar for concerts and events because you don't want to have them overshadow your big day.
We know that there are many other spectacular locations in Colorado to profess your love and propose to your beloved, but we hope these ideas will help. It's a milestone in your life, and we want it to be memorable for you!
