Marriage Proposal Traditions around The World


Monday, February 4th, 2013

A marriage proposal around the world signifies the interest of the man to marry the woman to share life together. It is a public declaration of his affection for her. Tradition has always been that the man proposes to the women though in recent times we do see few women proposing to the men. In Scotland, 29th February is the day when the lady can propose to the man.

Japan

Japan is a country loaded with tradition. Find a romantic place to propose to your girlfriend, remember to take the ring and then propose to her. You can add romance to your proposal with a rose held with your teeth and you are down on your knees. This is easy. Tradition needs to be followed for brownie points when you go to meet her parents and speak in Japanese. In Oriental society the father is more important in most matters than the mother. Take a small gift for both parents when you go to meet them. Ask both the parents for their daughter’s hand in marriage but address the father.
