As anyone who lives there knows, Chicago is the most amazing city. Finding vintage engagement rings in Chicago as well as the perfect place to propose is both difficult and magnificent because of how unique and versatile it is. Kinder than the cities on the east coast and more metropolitan than the west coast, Chicago is the ultimate mashup of everything you are looking for in a city. It is a Midwestern city with culture, class, romance, and style. After you’ve decided on the Knox Jewelers design you are going to give to the love of your life, take her to one of the many beautiful locations in Chicago to ask her to be yours forever.
Millennium Park has an assortment of options for wonderful proposal ideas. Take her to a concert, performance, or a romantic picnic on the lawn at the Pritzker Pavilion and then pop the question with all the joy and romance in the air. Take her on a walk through the beautiful Lurie Garden where you can give her an antique engagement ring to match the stunning floral scenery and your stunning future bride. Of course, you can also propose under the arch of the famous Cloud Gate sculpture, lovingly referred to as “The Bean” by locals.
