If you want to go with something a little more on-the-go consider a romantic carriage or hot air balloon ride! You can explore the Old City in a horse-drawn carriage nestled together under a cozy blanket if it's cold out. Your driver can share stories about the beautifully built city gates, buildings, parks and monuments and you go by. Let your driver know ahead of time what your plan is and perhaps he'll be able to recommend the perfect spot to present the engagement ring to your dearest. Who knows, you might event spot the perfect place to exchange your vows and wedding bands once along your route!

If you go with the Hot Air Balloon option the two of you will see breathtaking, birds-eye views of rivers, waterfalls, mountains, valleys, and islands. Pull your love close and whisper that they make your heart feel like it's flying every moment you're together. Turn them to face you and ask that very important question “will you marry me?” Present them with the gemstone or diamond jewelry from Knox Jewelers that you had made just for them and tell them that this ring was custom made for them; they'll think that you pulled the stars from the sky to put on their finger with how much it will sparkle.

Another major one to consider, if you and your honey enjoy history and architecture, is the city itself! Québec City is the only fortified city in North America north of Mexico and has almost 4.6 km of walls and imposing gates to explore. The Old Québec/Dufferin Terrace was designated a world heritage treasure by UNESCO, and for good reason! Check out the Château Frontenac (the world's most photographed hotel), the centuries-old architecture, and the historic sites. The friendly atmosphere and affable locals add to the European charm. Whatever the time of year, you'll find horse-drawn carriages, street entertainers, singers, and artists, particularly at Old Québec's own open-air art gallery, Rue du Trésor. High atop Cape Diamond, stroll along the Dufferin Terrace overlooking the St. Lawrence River and the surrounding area. Or come watch the ice making its way down the river in winter.

These are just a couple suggestions, but the whole beautiful city has fascinating architecture and history. You could present your carefully chosen engagement ring, that piece of diamond jewelery that reminds you of the sparkle in your loved one's eyes, and a place they deem “breathtaking”. And keep your eyes out for signs that a location will allow weddings to be held, you could potentially return to the site where you popped the question to exchange your vows and wedding bands. Knox Jewelers is proud to have master artisans who hand make their own filigree and do all hand engraving on our vintage style rings, this unique detail is stunning and really makes your rings special.

A final suggestion lies in the heart of Old Québec. Inside the historic fortifications, on the prestigious Rue Saint-Louis, a small, quiet, intimate hotel awaits you.

They claim to have a “dream team of romance experts” and unsurpassed hotel service which will help ensure that you have the perfect setting for your proposal. They have a variety of packages designed for romance, and they even have one specifically for engagements! Perhaps after spending the day seeing the sights you and your honey will end the day at the hotel, once you're snuggled up in your room for the night you can have the staff deliver the bottle of champagne that comes with the package.
