3 Of the Best Places To Get Engaged in Alaska
The Homer Spit
The views from The Homer Spit that juts out into Kachemak Bay will make it nearly impossible for a no to be uttered. Find your spot along the boardwalk, standing with your backs to colorful shops and staring out over the crystal-clear waters of the Bay, waiting for that perfect moment—you know the one, when the sun is setting, and the sky boasts an array of colors. The ring, the background, and the person you have always known was meant to be your other half will make this beautiful moment one that shines in the retelling.
The Grewingk Glacier
When you say you are visiting Alaska, the very first question out of their mouths will more than likely be, “Are you going to see any glaciers?” Iconic, and offering a frosty beauty that will, of course, pale in comparison to your intended, can you imagine the reactions when you tell your friends and family that the Grewingk Glacier is where he or she said yes? We can say with certainty that a glacier proposal will add a special touch, and although you shouldn’t walk on the glacier itself, there are plenty of hiking spots along the Grewingk Glacier Lake Trail offering a background of snowcapped mountains, the glacier, and adding an ethereal touch to your proposal, making it one of our favorite places to get engaged in Alaska.
Be sure to take plenty of pictures to mark this monumental moment in your life, because you will never want to forget the backdrop of beauty at one of the glaciers near Homer!
Kachemak Bay State Park
We think Kachemak Bay State Park is one of the most beautiful state parks in Alaska and offers ample places for your picturesque engagement, including Bishop’s Beach. When you are on bended knee, with the glaciers, the mountains, and the bay surrounding you, we think you will agree. Offering a breathtaking landscape that will add to the romance of the moment, the pictures of the ring and the newly engaged happy couple will stand out even more because of the background.
