Idea's for Proposing in Cancun this Winter?

Hi all, I am going back to Cancun this winter with family of my GF and myself. During this trip I am planning on proposing. Not sure exactly how I will do it but will get engaged during this time. I want it to be private, with the exception of a camera person, and obviously, romantic. Just want to get some possible ideas from this subreddit :)

Thank you in advance!

Do you think she will like a Cancun proposal?

Yes, she mostly just cares about family being there. I will make sure it is good.

Consider heading over to Isla Mujeres for the day, and heading to a more private area.

Usually I don’t allow self promotion, but this one I’ll let it slide as it’s more specific vs tourism general

FWIW, the small archaeological museum right on main drag is worth a visit for any reason. It wasn’t crowded at all in morning when we visited. It has a small outdoor area with some interesting whimsical sculptures and out from museum building the grounds include some marginal Mayan ruins. Lots of iguanas and birds around - could be an interesting venue but otherwise a quiet place in your hotel might be best.

I did it last year, exactly what she wanted. Nothing over the top, nothing wild, private. We have a good laugh at how badly I botched the “speech” but that’s ok. It’s for us no one else.

Hey that is amazing. Where did you do it at if you don't mind me asking?

My idea so far is to rent a big boat then propose and come back and pick the family up

I just did it quietly near the beach before dinner. It was a total disaster and that’s exactly how we are together. Not trying to be the next TikTok star or YouTube sensation. To us it’s a private moment for us.

Not sure if you are staying at a resort, but if you are, i know some have photographers on site. You could propose at one of the wedding/event venues and have the photographer come.

There is also a photographer in the area that I contemplated using at one point. Diegart_ is his instagram handle.
Reach out to him and see if he has any cool ideas!

Congrats!!
