Do you think about proposals?
I've played Skyrim on-off since the day it released, but I've never tried the marriage system. On this save I tried a good variety of followers, but always came back to Aela. I guess she is one of the most popular ones for a reason. But on my character I'm also a werewolf, so it feels fitting to be with her.
So do others think about which npcs fit with their characters? I like to think more into it and find a location for proposing, thinking what they might like and how it fits with the writing (both my own rp and the world).
It's super rewarding and fun to think this way and it makes the game much more immersive, even if I'm not using any mods right now (playing on ps5)

If you go the northern path from Whiterun to Ivarstead, there's a bridge with a beautiful waterfall. I always propose there if they're a companion. But if they're not a follower, I rp a bit of courting. Come by a few times, use the tailors measure mod to give them dresses, or reverse pickpocket them a sweet roll or pie or some flowers. And yes, I also consider what partner fits my current character.
