Planning out your ideal marriage proposal can be really overwhelming, particularly if you haven’t settled on an ideal location yet. Luckily, there are hundreds of great and unforgettable places to propose in Indiana. If you’re struggling to find a location to pop the question to the love of your life, try these 11 spots for inspiration:
Does your significant other love theme parks? If rollercoasters are their style, proposing at Holiday World could make for an epic proposal story. You can propose at the top of a rollercoaster, water ride, or on the ferris wheel. Just keep the ring safe!
The Indianapolis Museum of Art’s gardens and grounds can be the perfect place to propose to your S.O. From the infamous LOVE sign to gorgeous fields of flowers, paths, and bridges, you’ll be sure to find the perfect, romantic spot here. The only downside? Many couples get engaged here, so it can be a bit trite. Of course, you could look at it as a good look charm!

Indiana’s Dunes are absolutely gorgeous and can make the perfect backdrop for your marriage proposal. Consider the sun setting, the water glistening, and the sand sparkling in your proposal pictures. If you want an intimate, yet memorable proposal spot (and trip depending on where you live), the Dunes are the place for you.

Seriously, have you SEEN this place? If classy and jaw dropping is what you’re aiming for, this is a stunning selection. With European style and decadence, this resort and hotel will help your proposal feel more exotic, romantic, and elegant. Trust me, your S.O. will NEVER forget this moment.
Indy offers a plethora of interesting choices for marriage proposals, and the charming downtown canal is a breathtaking option. Go for a gondola ride and propose over the water or find a small area of grass or sidewalk on the water’s edge to pop the big question.

If you met in college, proposing at your old Hoosier campus could be really endearing. You can find one of the prettiest spots on campus, or get creative. Propose in the classroom (or dorm) you first met in (if possible) or propose in the room where you first fell in love.
Any place with a pretty view makes for a great proposal site. If you’re in Indy, opt for a rooftop restaurant like End of the Line in Fountain Square. Hotels often make great choices for views of your city, town, or surrounding areas.

This one gets a little more creative, but could be adorable if executed well. Hide notes in different antique stores leading up to your proposal spot. Or, if your S.O. is searching for something specific, say a typewriter, talk to the owner about hiding the ring on this item, and have them bring it out at an ideal moment.
If your S.O. loves nature or animals, proposing at Wolf Park is a creative way to propose. It can be fairly private...except for the wolves, of course!
The Indy Zoo has numerous options for proposal sites. Propose underneath dolphins, in the middle of the grounds, on the park’s roller coaster, or in a particularly beautiful spot: the butterfly garden in the Hilbert Conservatory.
These epic Indiana proposals are bound to sweep anyone off their feet. Just make sure the proposal matches the person. Don’t plan a huge public proposal if your S.O. is shy and don’t plan an undocumented proposal if you know they want to share pictures with everyone. No matter the location, make sure they will love it.
