In which month did you propose?


When men were asked about the month in which they proposed, December was found to be the prominent month. In addition to being a good month to end the year, Christmas, one of the biggest events for couples, seems to be a factor.

June, a popular month for weddings, also has a relatively large number of reports, but overall there is not a large difference, and the reports tend to be generally dispersed.


So why did men choose these months as the timing of their proposals?

Let's take a look at the reasons for choosing August as a proposal date, as well as some recommended dates.


<Proposal in August: On an event date such as a summer festival or fireworks display [36 votes, 7.2%].


August Proposal: Event dates such as summer festivals and fireworks displays


August is a season when couples make many memories. How about confessing your undying love with the help of an event on a summer night with a unique heat and a fantastic atmosphere?


I thought I would make a wish for a proposal at a shrine since it is the day of a local summer festival and then tell my feelings (Date: August 15 / Location: Either of our houses).

There was a summer festival in the area, so I created a situation where we participated in the event together and confessed my feelings (Date: mid-August)

There was a fireworks display, so we made it an annual commemoration (Date: Before Obon)

We met in August and August 10 is a heart day (Date: August 10 / Location: High-end restaurant)

It is the anniversary of our relationship. I proposed on our sixth year of dating (Date: August 3 / Place: Place of our memories)

It is the day we first met and we have celebrated it every year (Date: August 25 / Location: A place of our memories)


Many respondents said they proposed on the occasion of a date at an event such as a summer festival or fireworks display. August, like April, is also a time of many encounters. Many couples report proposing on anniversaries that mark the beginning of their love, such as the anniversary of their first meeting or the anniversary of their first relationship.


In addition, here are some recommended proposal dates in August, based on word combinations and other factors.


Recommended Proposal Dates Reason

August 2: "Honey Day. It is the perfect day for two people who want to stay close and in love forever!

August 7: "Flower Day. A beautiful bouquet of flowers to propose on this glamorous day of married life.

August 8 - "Day of the Last Supper". A day of good luck and irony!

August 10: "Heart Day. The perfect day to pledge eternal love!



Bouquets recommended for August proposals

Here is a ranking of the types of bouquets chosen for August proposals.

No. 1: Roses

No. 2: Sunflowers

No. 3: Birthday flowers/birth month flowers

Note that the birth month flower for August is also the sunflower.


Let's take a look at the reasons for choosing a bouquet of flowers.


Bouquets recommended for August proposals


I knew that the number of roses to be given has its own meaning, so I expressed my feelings with the number of roses (Flower: Roses / Location: Night view, illumination spot).

I chose sunflowers because they are the flower of the summer season and because of my then girlfriend's (now wife) bright, sunny smile (Flower: Sunflower / Location: Either of our houses)

Since her birthday is in July, I gave her a romantic gift of lilies, the flower of the month of her birth (Flower: Birthday flower, flower of the month of birth / Location: A place of their memories).



■August bouquet trends based on the number of preserved and processed items

The number of bouquets brought to our Tokyo Toranomon Salon in Minato-ku, Tokyo, also shows the trend in bouquets chosen for August proposals.


Roses: 97

Sunflowers: 7

Gerbera : 1

Hibiscus: 1


Although roses are by far the most popular flower, sunflowers, which are the flower of the season, also tend to be chosen by a certain number of people.

Looking deeper into rose bouquets, the most popular bouquet by number of roses is 12 (dozen roses), meaning "Please be my wife," followed by 108 roses, meaning "Please marry me.

In addition, pressed flowers tend to be the most popular product ordered in rose bouquets. Pressed flowers are a recommended preservation process, as they are easy to adopt for interior decoration as wall hangings and brighten the colors, making the entire room more colorful.
