Best places to propose in Dallas

It’s the vibrant heart of Texas, pulsating with energy, charm, and all that the state has to offer. Despite the bustle and dazzle of the cityscape, however, you can find a plethora of places to set the scene for an unforgettable proposal. Here are eight of our favorite places to propose in Dallas, along with coordinating engagement rings. 

Klyde Warren Park 

This beautiful urban oasis has just about something for everyone. Plan the perfect picnic proposal on the vast expanse of the East Lawn at Klyde Warren Park, watch the Nancy Best Fountain come alive at sunset, and take in stunning views of the Dallas skyline. Consider proposing with a radiant-cut moissanite halo ring that’ll light up her face as bright as the twinkling city lights. 

Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden 

Explore more than 66 acres of lush gardens, which include the sculptures and reflecting pool of the Women’s Garden as well as the blooming flowers and colorful trees of The Paseo. With all the local flora, paved pathways, and secluded spots, you’ll easily find a picturesque place for a Dallas Arboretum proposal. Entrance fee to the park is $22 per person, but check the site for discounts before you go. Create a custom engagement ring at the Dallas Helzberg location to match your outdoor proposal. 

Reunion Tower 

Show your fiance’-to-be that your love is sky-high by elevating your proposal game a bit. Start with a guided tour, or book an inclusive couple’s package at Reunion Tower’s GeO-Deck. Pop the question as the sunset paints the sky shades of orange and pink. Then clink glasses and share a meal at the Tower’s Crown Block restaurant. Be sure to buy tickets and make any reservations in advance. Select a Texas-size engagement ring, like this 1.5-carat pear-shaped bridal set. 

carriage ride 

Be the Prince Charming to their Cinderella when you surprise them with a horse-drawn carriage ride and a romantic proposal through the Central Business District, West End, or Klyde Warren Park. Choose from a traditional open carriage, or make her dreams come true with a pumpkin-style Cinderella carriage. A 30-minute ride typically runs around $250; be sure to book reservations in advance. Opt for an unexpected engagement ring featuring an aquamarine princess-cut center stone. 

Dallas Symphony Orchestra performance

Looking for an indoor proposal in Dallas? Make their heart sing when you propose with the backdrop of violins, cellos, horns, and drums. Get tickets to a symphony event at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center, and coordinate with the orchestra about having a musical proposal moment before or after the performance to add to the unforgettable proposal ambiance. Choose a deeply romantic amethyst and yellow gold ring with a marquise center stone. 

helicopter proposal 

Sure, rooftop proposals are nice, but if you really want to up the “wow” factor, go all in with a Dallas helicopter proposal. When you book with Epic Helicopters for a 50-minute excursion, you can depart via Addison or Fort Worth to see all those must-do sites while proposing 1,000 feet in the air. This proposal will set you back about $530. An over-the-top proposal calls for big, Texas-style jewelry. Try a 4-carat lab grown emerald-encrusted engagement ring. 

Perot Museum of Nature and Science 

For something a bit less … extravagant, plan your indoor Dallas proposal at the museum! Once you’ve learned about dinosaurs, Texas’ oil and gas offerings, and native birds, make your way to the planetarium and propose beneath the starry night sky. General admission tickets run $15 to $25, and additional experiences may be added. Choose a scintillating radiant star-cut engagement ring. 

RH Rooftop Restaurant 

Modern luxury and opulence collide when you step into the RH Rooftop Restaurant, situated on the third floor of RH Dallas. Luxurious appointments and thoughtful design, paired with rich-bodied wines and an exquisite, locally sourced menu, provide the perfect understated backdrop for a proposal in Dallas. Just be sure to make reservations ahead of time. Select a timeless round solitaire engagement ring.
