ToggleDowntown Houston Horse-Drawn Carriages
Some girls want to be treated like princesses every day, the day that they are proposed to should be no exception.
What says “princess” more than being proposed to in a horse-drawn carriage? That fairytale can become a reality deep in the heart of Houston, Texas. These carriages roam the streets of Downtown; surrounded by the livelihood of the people, the romantic dim lights of the city, and the sound of the horses’ hooves as they prance on the cobble stone streets, this option makes for the perfect proposal.
Buffalo Bayou
The Houston Skyline is one of Houstonian’s most prized possessions. Buffalo Bayou is a recreational park that has one of the best views of the skyline in the entire city. Buffalo Bayou would be a great location to go on a romantic walk, have a quiet picnic while the sun is setting, and propose the love of your life. The skyline will create a beautiful backdrop for this memorable moment.
Hot Air Balloons
Not many would categorize Houston as the top destination for a romantic proposal. However, not many know that there are Houston-based companies that provide hot air balloon rides. This option has become an increasingly favorable option for individuals looking to propose in a unique way, staying in the city, and without breaking the bank.

The Japanese Garden at Herman Park provides a beautiful and secret getaway for popping the question. The Garden encompasses Koi ponds, unique Japanese plants and flowers, and is the perfect private resting spot to propose after a long stroll in the park.
