It’s summer and it’s hot so now is a great time to look back at times when marriage proposals were done with lots of fluffy white stuff - SNOW - around. Listen, when you’re in lone, ANY time of the year is a good time to propose!

A magical spot for a marriage proposal in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a place called Charlie’s Bunion, nmed after a man’s foot problem. Beautiful, indeed - but be ready to pay some sweat equity to make it happen!

When proposing marriage in the Smokies, Mother Nature does not always ledna helping hand. Rain, snow, ice, wind - what can be done? Two things help: planning and flexibility. Oh, and sometimes just pure grit - so what if you get wet?
