The lighthouse at sunset would be very romantic.

Another idea, assuming you will be eating dinner that evening anyway, would be to propose during dinner at Passions on the beach at the Amsterdam Manor. They have live music and it is very romantic after dark.

Welcome to the forum.

I am sure there will be a lot of nice suggestions; but, I am inclined to agree with Arubalisa's suggestion. A nice dinner; romantic setting after dark, and good live music...a perfect setting, and a good suggestion to get a "Yes,

Hope all goes well.

We went during our anniversary of dating, and i told her we should buy each other a gift, something local, something not expensive, but special. She went out searching for a bracelet for me, i was at the sportsbook, i had my gift, a ring, had to sell it like it was going to be a normal anniversary dinner., wanted her to be surprised. She was suspicious if i had a ring, had to quell that with phoney jewelry searching trip.

Here is what i did:
So we had reservations for Passions, as soon as the sunset on our beach dinner, i got on a knee and asked her to marry me. I gave her a special moment she will never forget. We will be back for our honeymoon in October.

beach+on knee+ring= special moment she will never forget
