25 Places In India Where Your Girlfriend Won’t Say No To Your Proposal

Proposing to your girlfriend, most often than not, can be quite a tricky and anxiety ridden situation. While we won’t be able to help you in other departments, we sure can suggest some dazzling places in India to propose.
Go beyond the regular candle light dinner; profess your love on the highest motorable pass in India or on a starry night in the desert, enchant her with a hot air balloon over the breathtaking wilderness or in an open air Jacuzzi facing the mountains. If nothing else, you would at least be applauded for your ingenuity (which might want her to reconsider into a yes)!
