6 steps to consider when planning a surprise proposal:

1. Determine your partner's preferences and style. Consider their favorite activities, locations, and things, and try to incorporate them into the proposal.

2. Choose a location that is meaningful or special to both of you. It could be a place where you had your first date, a place you've always wanted to visit together, or a spot that holds sentimental value.

3. Plan the logistics of the proposal. Consider the timing, transportation, and any other details that need to be arranged. Make sure to keep the proposal a secret from your partner.

4. Practice what you will say. It can be helpful to have a general idea of what you want to say, but it's also okay to be spontaneous and let the words come from the heart in the moment.

5. Don't forget the ring! Make sure you have the ring with you and that it fits your partner's finger.

6. Relax and enjoy the moment. The most important thing is to be present and authentic. Let your love and commitment shine through.
