1.8m Brits planning to get engaged in 200806 Feb 2008
It is predicted that 80 per cent of single Brits will propose to their partners this year, according to a new study. Research from cahoots has revealed that in previous leap years one million women in the UK proposed to their other halves on February 29th.Matthew Timms, director of cahoot, commented: "A massive 1.8 million singles are planning to make the most of the leap year by proposing to their partners. But proposals can be expensive, especially if you're splashing out on a special event to mark the occasion. "Of course we can't guarantee that everyone will say yes, but a bit of careful financial planning should ensure that the proposal runs as smoothly as possible!" Figures show that the average marriage proposal costs approximately £1,218, with £743 spent on taking a loved-one away to a special location to pop the question. The study suggests that 703,000 women plan to get down on one knee at the end of the month, making the most of the leap year tradition and giving up on waiting for their partner to make the big move.
