There are few occasions that are as special and memorable as the moment you ask the love of your life to marry you. Make it a moment that you won’t forget. One of the best approaches to creating that special ambiance is to choose an unforgettable setting. Bed and breakfast inns throughout the nation offer some of the most spectacular and romantic locations. Whether its a California bed and breakfast located high in the mountains or an Arizona bed and breakfast inn set against the red rocks, an ideal setting can make for the perfect proposal.

Propose by the Sea

Located in the West Maui Mountains, the Ho’oilo House might also make a great place for the honeymoon, too. With grand views of the ocean (which has some great spots for snorkeling with sea turtles and a wide variety of fish), you can also catch the sun rising on Mt. Haleakala at this inn. But don’t stop there, consider doing the proposal on a helicopter tour or after zip-lining over the treetops. Any number of adventures could make the proposal a special event.

Think Cherry Blossoms

Once you’ve seen the blooming cherry trees of Washington, D.C., in the spring you’ll understand why the Japanese take one to two weeks off every year just to celebrate the beauty of these pink-white blooms. What’s more, by visiting D.C. in the spring you’ll beat the humid heat and touristy swarms of the summer. Treat yourself and your future partner-for-life to urban sightseeing from the sophisticated home base of Embassy Circle Guest House. Located in the middle of the action at Dupont Circle, this lovely inn is also just minutes from the D.C. Metro, which will take you all over town.

Ask on Top of a Glacier

The most adventurous might consider a special trip to Alaska. Built one hundred years ago Alaska’s Capital Inn will surround you with history and spectacular natural beauty. By day, venture out for whale watching, glacier climbing, kayaking, or salmon or halibut fishing. Seafood lovers are in luck, because local seafood is frequently incorporated into the gourmet breakfast served daily.

Propose Under the Expansive Desert Sky

Everything about Adobe Grand Villas is vast. Set against the red rocks of Thunder Mountain, the luxurious Adobe Grand Villas exceeds every expectation. Named one of 2006′s Top Romantic Bed and Breakfast and Country Inns by American Historic Inns, Inc, this bed and breakfast is ideally located for either tranquil retreat or invigorating desert hiking. For an unusual treat, visit the newly opened Out Of Africa Wildlife Park. The grazing zebras and stalking lions will set an adventurous, anticipatory mood for a proposal.

Tall Trees, Mountains and a Romantic Inn

The beautiful Gold Mountain Manor, a Big Bear, California Bed and Breakfast offers the perfect spot to pop the question, and the staff who will help make it fun and memorable. You might consider hiding the ring in a picnic basket while horseback riding or while wheeling under the trees on a jeep tour or cycling. The national forest is a block away.

Whether it’s under the desert skies in Arizona or by a mountain lake in California, make the moment a memoriable one.
