We asked our audience to “name the best place to propose in Boston.” Some answers provided a good laugh and dose of nostalgia, and others could actually be the perfect setting for a Valentine’s Day proposal! Or to plan a proposal any time of the year, because we’re not all trying to reenact a Hallmark film!
So without further ado, these are the best places to turn that romantic date into that “I do:”
