Proposing outdoors is a magical experience but it comes with risks. A few days in advance, check the weather and make necessary plan revisions. Sure, in movies, celebrating in the rain is romantic, but if it inevitably happens to you during your outdoor proposal, you might not agree. Set up a picnic, if possible, or choose an activity that the location offers for a truly memorable experience. Don't forget to make the most of New York's beautiful Golden Hour for a more dramatic backdrop.
