Forsyth Park Fountain Proposal. This is Savannah’s most famous fountain and for good reason! The fountain itself is beautifully designed. The walk leading to Fountain from the historic district is also dramatically picturesque. The live oak trees create a frame that guides you down the walk way to your proposal destination. The Forsyth fountain is busy so consider the time of day that will be less crowded which will likely be early morning. You also have the option to rent the fountain and walkway.

Propose In A Famous Square. Savannah is known for its great urban design. Originally 24 squares created a grid that the historic district was built around. 22 squares remain; each one is unique and has its own history. There are squares with fountains, gazebos, statues or green grass centers surrounded by lush landscaping. I do suggest researching the history of the square you choose. You may not want to pick a supposed haunted square. Just like reserving Forsyth Park you have the ability to reserve a square for more privacy. Some additional Savannah proposal ideas incorporating a square could include a private concert set up just for her. You could also invite friends and family for a surprise engagement party hosted the square. Some of our favorite squares are Lafayette Square, Orleans Square and Whitefield Square.

Proposal Horse Carriage Tour. Savannah has a deep history. Tour guides on a daily basis tell the history of this great city. The most romantic tour is certainly the many carriage rides. Reserve your carriage ride ahead of time as they do get sold out. Speak to the tour company about your proposal plans. They will suggest the best spot on your tour for a proposal. Pack a bottle of champagne for a toast after she says yes. This is one of our favorite Savannah proposal ideas! SavannahCarriage.com Proposal Tour
Proposal on the water. The Savannah River is really what built this city. The port is one of the biggest on the East Coast, which created the economic means for the city to expand. The economy being tied to the river created a waterfront that today is one of the jewels of the city. What is the best way to see the waterfront views from the river itself of course! You have options for tours from private dolphin tours to large riverboat’s serving dinner. Savannah Water Tour Reviews
Propose on the beach. A short drive away is Tybee Island famous for its white sands and beach vacation fun. It also has Georgia’s oldest and tallest lighthouse. Beach proposals a timeless for good reason. The cool ocean breeze, the cotton candy skies over the water at sunset are why beach proposals always impress. Up the, “wow” factor by creating a romantic picnic with all her favorite foods and champagne. Or surprise her with a rose petal heart in the sand.
Romantic Home or Hotel Makeover. Savannah is filled with historic homes that on a regular day scream romance. Rent a historic home and up the romance factor by decorating it an explosion of roses and flameless candles. (Always choose flameless for safety and it a lot easier to turn on a 100 candles than light a 100 candles. Shop flameless candles on Amazon Here). Savannah AirBNB
Forest Gump Proposal. Is your partner a big movie buff particularly a Forest Gump fan? Take her on a tour to all the famous move scenes throughout Savannah. Start at Debi’s restaurant, as they are only open for breakfast or lunch (The restaurant where, “Jenny” worked). Finish at the Chippewa Square square where the famous bench was for the movie. There is actually no bench where it was in the movie. We suggest renting the square and getting a permit to put a bench for an extra impressive proposal. Of course have a box of chocolate waiting for your arrival. This is certainly one of the most creative Savannah proposal ideas.
