Proposing to the person you love is both exciting and nerve-wracking. It marks the start of a new chapter filled with anticipation, love, and commitment. We know how excited people are when planning the perfect proposal and how it can be overwhelming, but don’t worry we are here to help share tips and guide you through the process.
Consider Asking for Their Parent’s Blessing
Asking for a parent’s blessing, regardless of their involvement in your partner’s life, is a sincere and respectful gesture. This step can show your sincerity and the seriousness of your intentions. Be prepared for any positive or negative response; see it as an opportunity to build and strengthen family bonds.

Find The Right Location
The location is crucial when planning the perfect proposal. Choose a place that has special meaning for both of you. Consider the crowd and weather, and make sure it’s a place you enjoy visiting. You can also consult with our team for help in selecting the perfect spot.
Alternatively, you may choose other places, such as the Brooklyn Bridge, Dumbo or Central Park, take a scenic sunset boat ride around Manhattan, visit a tranquil beach, or cozy restaurant for a romantic dinner. Also, consider the allure of the New York Bridge or the romantic ambiance of the shoreline at Battery Park for a unique experience together.

Perfect Timing
Plan your proposal around the golden hour; the light is gentle and warm shortly after sunrise or right before sunset, giving the scene a cinematic quality. If you’re unsure about the best time for your proposal, don’t hesitate to contact our team. We’ll gladly help you in selecting the optimal time based on our expertise.
Plan Every Detail
To make it perfect:
- Prepare every detail for your proposal, or if you are not sure what to do we can help you with that.
- Plan your words for your other half, how you’ll present the ring, and how to get your partner to the location without suspicion, maybe as a romantic walk or casual outing.
- Rehearse if needed.
- Check the weather and have a backup plan. You may consider indoor locations as alternatives.
Keep It as a Secret
Surprising your partner is critical to a memorable proposal. Keep your plans under wraps to avoid giving anything away—team up with your photographer to plan everything, especially when you pop the question. We will send you instructions the day before your proposal and a picture of the spot few minutes before you arrive. Remember we got you covered, no need to stress, just relax and enjoy your unique moment. This way, we can capture every moment without ruining the surprise.
Take a Photo Session
After your partner says “yes” and your photographer has already caught the moment, after the initial surprise, take some posed photo session to remember the experience. These photos will be treasured memories, capturing your love story’s real emotions and beauty.
Proposing to your loved one is an exciting experience, marking the start of a journey filled with love and commitment. Planning involves timing, location, and surprise to create a magical moment. Tailoring it to your unique love story ensures a cherished memory. Imagine the joy and genuine emotions on your partner’s face in the photos.
