If you're reading this after having a festive proposal at the end of 2021 - did your very own engagement location make one of the top listed? Whether your loved one is an ocean-obsessed water sign or a glamorous city slicker who would love to be proposed to with views over the capital, here at County Wedding Magazines HQ we're loving these winners.
The London Eye, London
This iconic London tourist hotspot offers panoramic views of central London and beyond, providing a glamorous setting for a proposal. If the view alone doesn't wow your loved one, suitors can go the extra mile by hiring a private pod or request a bottle of champagne to toast your engagement after you get down on one knee.
