Just to throw an experience from a friend of mines proposal out there...
They often went to the cliffs at Palos Verdes Ca (overlooking the Los Angeles bay area) to hang out and talk... It was a regular thing for them, so she suspected nothing..
When they got there, there was a rental truck sitting there, seemingly unattended.. Parked out on the dirt... You know, the kind of truck that you would rent to move in.. with the box on the back and the roll up door...
Anyways, after a bit, he steered her as they were walking along, to walk past the back of the truck.. When they got close, the back opened up and two of his buddies were dressed in white tuxes, with towels over their arms, and inside the truck was a full table and settings, with a candle lit dinner on the table... in the center was the ring box...
She was 'blown away!' It didn't cost a whole lot, but it was very creative, very romantic, and something they will never forget... I think you could easily modify such a thing to your trip.. The fact that relatives and what not will be there, gives you an easy pool of 'partners in crime' to work with..
May God bless both of you in your life together....... May it be filled with laughter, romance, self sacrifice, children, memories, health, and long years...
Remember this... A man who treats his wife like a slave, makes him nothing more than a slave master.. But a man who treats his wife as a queen, makes him a 'king'...:
