And good news, it will be relatively easy to take your partner to the desired place. No need to pretend a lost stay in the middle of nowhere.
Choosing where to ask the famous question is never trivial. A simple decor can transform the moment into a memory engraved forever. A recent study has reviewed the most popular places in the world for marriage requests and it reveals which wins first place in France. There are those who bet on intimacy, around a dinner or a familiar walk, and those who want to mark the occasion in a spectacular landscape.
According to researchers behind this international classification, the choice of place has a considerable weight in the way in which the event is lived and shared. Accessibility, charm, popularity on social networks, sound atmosphere or even security: so many criteria that identify ideal destinations. This work then made it possible to establish a world record which crowns a very specific French address. To establish this comparison, the authors retained thirty destinations known for their romantic power.
Indeed, each site was evaluated according to ten indicators, ranging from the cost of entry to weather stability, including cultural impact or “Instagram capacity”. The principle is simple: award a note from one to ten for each criterion, before calculating a global score. The idea was to identify the places that check the most boxes, while offering realistic conditions to organize a request. Popularity plays a central role: the more a place is visited and immortalized on the networks, the more it inspires confidence in those who are about to take the plunge. But the surprise factor also counts: the study highlights the interest of choosing a framework that arouses immediate wonder, without being too obvious.
So when it comes to designating the number one place in France, a site is clearly essential. Free access, central, with an emblematic view, it attracts millions of visitors each year and is regularly displayed on Instagram with photos of couples. The place in question is the Trocadéro gardens. A breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower, a 100% French atmosphere and a green setting would be the most sumptuous decor to mark this day as it should.
However, as mentioned, this work was not limited to France. Among the first in the world ranking, we find for example the Japanese inspiration gardens of Chicago, a Hawaiian beach or the white dunes of New Mexico. All combine postcard decor and atmosphere conducive to emotion.
