- During dinner at Rivue.
Yelp / Abby A. Of course, any romantic restaurant would be a nice choice, but Rivue offers the most beautiful view of our city. Act casual and have a fun time drinking and dining before surprising them!

- If you enjoy hiking, pop the question at this secluded waterfall.

This waterfall is located at 9600 Thixton Lane right here in Louisville, and is only about a fifteen minute hike to get to. The area is very secluded, making it perfect for such an important moment.
- If none of these speak out to you, keep it simple and personal.

Sometimes simple and romantic places like your favorite restaurant, park, or the place you first met are the best options to choose from. Good luck to any couples out there looking to tie the knot in Louisville; I hope both the proposal and wedding are your dream come true!
