Proposing During a Hot Air Balloon Ride
![]() |
If you're in love with that special someone and are ready to propose marriage -- why not make that moment as amazing as it can be? Your loved one will never forget the moment you proposed to them...especially if you do it while aloft in a hot air balloon!
Hot air balloons have been around since the late 18th century when two French brothers invented and successfully flew the very first one. Since then, hot air ballooning has become a beloved hobby of people around the world. Even people who don't care for heights can enjoy hot air ballooning. The basket where the passengers stand is extremely stable, and will never tip or sway during flight.
Many hot air balloon ride providers have special packages designed for romance. For one price, you can get a private hot air balloon ride with your sweetie, a champagne brunch, photos, and more. And during the balloon ride, while you're marveling at the majesty of the view from the balloon, why not pop the question?
To prepare your sweetheart for the ride, instruct them to wear flat soled shoes and comfortable clothing in light layers. And be prepared to rise at dawn, because the majority of hot air balloon rides happen right after sunrise. This is because the wind conditions are most favorable at this time of day.
You could make a romantic getaway out of a hot air balloon ride. Because balloons are only controlled vertically by the pilot, the horizontal position of the balloon can vary. This means that where you land is often a surprise! One good idea is to rent a hotel or romantic bed and breakfast in the area where you land and spend some time sightseeing, dining and shopping.
Balloon rides can be taken during any time of the year. Different seasons offer different benefits, so the best thing to do is choose your favorite season. Spring and fall are probably the best choices, because the weather, wind, and temperature is most favorable during these seasons. However, don't rule out summer and winter, especially if you like those seasons the most.
Some people have even gotten married on a hot air balloon ride! If you and your loved one are already balloon enthusiasts, this is a potential idea for an innovative wedding.
Check the Internet or your local Yellow Pages for hot air balloon providers in your area that can give you and your loved one the ride of a lifetime!
