Atlanta is full of wonderful, elegant locations to choose from when it's time to pop the question. Choosing the perfect place is a choice that she will remember for the rest of her life. When deciding on the perfect spot you should first think about the women who you are planning on spending the rest of your life with. What does she like, or not like. Is there a special place that the two of you go often? Does she frequently tell people of the amazing way you meet? Making a special place even more special is always a great choice. For instance, my sister met her now husband while sitting on a bench on campus at UGA. When it came time for him to propose he planned a special trip back to Athens where they took a walk and he proposed on that very same bench. Very romantic! If you are however, like most men and at a loss for ideas and places that would make a wonderful, romantic memory of your engagement then this list is for you. Having lived in and around Atlanta most of my life I like to think that I know a few romantic spots that are perfect for anyone's memory of what should be the perfect moment.

If you're planning on proposing during a meal, perhaps the most popular romantic restaurant in Atlanta is the Sun Dial restaurant Ever since I was 5 years old I can remember driving into Atlanta gazing up at the amazing circular restaurant located atop the Westin hotel at 210 Peachtree St., in hopes that one day I would be special enough to warrant a trip there. This amazingly unique restaurant rotates 360 degrees once an hour to give dinners a magnificent view of the city. By night the lights of the city make the view simply breathtaking. This romantic spot even features live music! The Sun Dial is the perfect, no fail spot to propose in Atlanta. Call ahead for reservations at 404-589-7506.

Another truly romantic restaurant that is an optimal spot for a no fail proposal is the Les Fleur De Lis Café in downtown Atlanta located at 57 Forsyth St Nw. From the charming tables and leather banquettes to the mirrors and lace curtains this place oozes with romance. The food is awesome and very seductive. This restaurant has a wonderful authentic French menu, especially romantic atmosphere and is the perfect place to bring your special sweetheart to make her special night the most memorable ever!

My all time favorite romantic spot in Atlanta is Front Page News, located at 1104 Crescent Ave Ne. This romantic restaurant has a quaint New Orleans theme and features many excellent menu items from that region. For an extra special dining experience sit on the porch which has a wonderful fountain and quiet atmosphere. A table by the fountain would be perfect for a proposal with the soft tinkle of soothing water in the background.

If your sweetie is a sports fan, I have seen a great way to propose at Thrashers games at Phillips Arena downtown. During the game they announce a number to punch into your phone and you can post messages on the score board! If you're lucky after the proposal the love camera will zoom in on you and the two of you can express your love on the big screen! An experience she's sure to remember and tell all her friends about.

Another wonderful location downtown is Centennial Olympic Park located at 285 International Blvd NW. The brick pathways and gentle flowing fountains set a wonderful mood for a memorable proposal site. Sit on by the wishing pool and toss in some money and wish she'll marry you. I bet your wish will come true!

If you into nature, the Atlanta Botanical Gardens is an ideal location to propose in Atlanta. Located at 1345 Piedmont Ave NE that gardens offer tours and self guided walks through native plants that are in bloom any time of the year. They also have great flower exhibits. The atmosphere is romantic and shows sensitivity on your part appealing to her inner flower. The Atlanta Botanical Gardens offers a wonderful, beautiful atmosphere to propose to that special someone.

The William H. Reynolds Memorial Nature Preserve also offers an exclusive and romantic spot to propose in Atlanta. Located at 5665 Reynolds Road in Morrow, the preserve offers all the wonder and beauty of nature and provides the perfect atmosphere for a memorable proposal!

If you're looking for an excellent spot on the east side, you can't go wrong with Turner Lake Park located at 2101 Clark St. in Covington. The paved walking trail and secluded benches by the lake will make a memory she will be proud to share with everyone she meets.

What ever location you choose, make your proposal sincere and keep your heart true and she'll be yours forever!

    You missed the most beautiful view of Atlanta, its secluded, romantic, and breathtaking.

    Not many people know about the place and that is what makes it special.
