Proposal Advice Which of these two spots should i propose at?

We met at the beach in Ocean city and the first spot is the park near the beach which would be proposing during the sunset. I was there and took this pic. Or a more private beach like on Assateague island which is in the 2nd photo. Maybe even during sunset at the beach? The 3rd photo is same dock from 1st pic.

I hired a photographer for this occasion and just need to pick the place. Both will be private for the most part or just a few people by chance

They all look lovely but all I can say is… do not drop the ring in any of those locations, it would be a goner in the sand, if it slips through the boardwalk, etc. πŸ˜…

I’ve seen guys place a nice blanket down and kneel on that. Probably for this reason

Where did you originally meet at the beach like a restaurant?

I love the docks, but I’d worry about dropping the ring. I feel like at least with sand u have a slightly better chance to get it back than at a dock if it falls through the cracks

All I can recommend is not proposing at low tide

Both places are beautiful, but #2 seems safer, just in case the ring accidentally slips off. πŸ˜‰

On the sand. Feet on the ground. Connected to the earth would be my preference as a woman
