Oliver Brendon, CEO of AttractionTickets.com comments, ‘From natural wonders like the Grand Canyon and Yosemite, to timeless landmarks like the Taj Mahal, these destinations offer more than a beautiful backdrop.
‘Proposing in emotionally-charged locations help anchor the moment to a shared experience, creating unforgettable memories that live long after the holiday ends.
‘Proposing at a theme park, like Disneyland California and Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando continues to be popular, showing that childhood nostalgia and joy can be just as important as traditional romance when choosing where to mark a milestone moment.
‘For those seeking quieter, more intimate moments in the parks, visiting spots like Cinderella’s castle first thing in the morning can help avoid the crowds.’
