So I have planned a big trip in two weeks with my girlfriend to propose, but I now want to catch her off guard and pull the trigger by doing a very casual picnic (which we’ve done in the past a few times) a week early and use our trip just to celebrate and relax. So I’m trying to see if this Thursday (May 7th) it’s possible to find a spot by the water (ideally on grass) to put a blanket down and have a little picnic, but really ultimately propose in this spot - I want to limit the amount of people around as much as possible. We live in Gold Coast by oak street beach. Lake shore park, Ohio street beach i guess are close by, but i feel like they will be so crowded on a Thursday night on like 7:30. Where else could I go? I just want it to be on grass and with a nice view, I won’t be setting anything up. Planners to have a photographer follow us and be sitting near, ready to take a picture when the moment happens
