Some of The Stunning Spots in Australia To Woo Your Girlfriend With a Ring
Roughly 119,000 Australian couples get married every year, ABC reports. A vast and stunning country, Australia has an endless number of picturesque proposal locations. No matter your vision and interests, you’ll have no problem finding the perfect place to pop the question — and here are some of the top spots.
Sydney Harbour Bridge, New South Wales
If you’re comfortable with heights, Sydney Harbour Bridge is an exciting proposal location. The summit lies roughly 134 metres above sea level and the climb pays off with stunning city views. If you’d prefer privacy at the summit, the BridgeClimb staff can arrange that for you when you’re ready to propose. While you’re not allowed to carry any belongings with you on the climb, the staff can also keep a hold of the ring until you reach the top.
It’s also important to carefully consider your choice of engagement ring. A ring that’s on-trend and suits your partner’s preferences will make them happiest when you propose. Diamond solitaire, oval, and blue sapphire gemstones are some popular ring designs at the moment. If, on the other hand, a BridgeClimb is a bit too extreme, you can opt for a relaxed bridge walk. This walk begins at Milson’s Points and ends at the Rocks on the opposite side of the bridge. The picturesque scenery makes the perfect proposal backdrop.
Uluru, Northern Territory
Known as the spiritual center of Australia, Uluru (or Ayres Rock) is the ideal setting for a romantic, meaningful proposal. This massive sacred sandstone monolith is one of Australia’s most famous landmarks (also known as the country’s red centre). The area’s ancient history and abundant plant and animal life creates a special atmosphere just right for asking your partner to spend the rest of your lives together. You may even wish to return to this location for the ceremony. In particular, a Sounds of Silence dinner gives you the chance to dine under the beautiful night sky — the perfect time to propose.
The Blue Mountains, New South Wales
Named after vast eucalyptus forests that create a stunning blue haze hanging over the region, the Blue Mountains is one of Sydney’s most beautiful natural sites. It’s a two-hour drive from Sydney, but there are also trains and coaches running. As a couple, you’ll have 140 kilometres of bushwalking trail complete with panoramic views to explore together. There’s numerous beautiful, peaceful, and private areas along the way ideal for popping the question (photo-ready backdrops included). The area also showcases interesting rock formations and underground caves you can visit. After your hike, celebrate your engagement at the One&Only Wolgan Valley Resort and Spa. With in-room pools, luxurious spa treatments, and fine dining, you can relax and unwind together at the end of the day.
The Barossa Valley, SA
If you’re wine lovers or simply appreciate quaint and scenic parts of Australia, the Barossa Valley is the perfect place for a proposal. A famous wine-producing region, the Barossa Valley offers visitors a wide variety of delicious wine with nuanced flavors. You can take a bike ride around the countryside, browse local artisan stores, and sample the wine with your meals at the Valley’s best restaurants. You can also tour some of the world’s most famous wineries like Jacob’s Creek and Penfolds. At Seppeltsfield winery, you can sample wines made during your birth year and important historical moments.
Planning a proposal can be stressful, but finding the perfect location isn’t something you need to worry about. With an abundance of beautiful and special locations, Australia has the right setting for any proposal.
