Backyard Marriage Proposal

This is the perfect low-key marriage proposal idea! Arrive home early from work, before your partner returns. Have us help you set up a creative display in your backyard, with photos of some your favorite shared memories and experiences. Add a few candles and rose petals to help with the romantic atmosphere.  When she arrives, tell her you have a surprise for her in the backyard. As she walks out, drop to one knee!  Add to your romantic photo display with surprise proposal photography from the moment you propose, like Cliff did!  Watch his proposal unfold in their full proposal slideshow!

Cupcake Marriage Proposal

Nothing shows how sweet you are like a cupcake marriage proposal!  This sugary idea is the perfect creative cover for your proposal plans!  Pick up a pastry from your favorite bakery, somewhere you two go together often or perhaps was the spot you share a significant memory. Nestle the engagement ring into the icing, and watch your partner’s adorable reaction as they realize their dessert has a little something extra!  Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop is one of our favorites!

Rustic Marriage Proposal

This marriage proposal plan is picture-perfect for great surprise engagement photos if you know your special someone enjoys life’s simple pleasures!  Have your proposal planner write a sweet checklist on a blackboard, with the last item being your proposal message!  Head to your favorite outdoor spot and set up the chalkboard and some twinkling lights for atmosphere, and you’re Pinterest-perfect!  Check out the proposal photography package Brendon used to capture each beautiful moment of his engagement!

Park Picnic Proposal

Tell your special someone you’ve planned a walk at your favorite park.  Pack a picnic or have us pack one for you, complete with champagne for a toast after she says yes!  As you meander through the trees, you’ll stumble across a beautiful blanket and picnic basket, set up in just the right location.  When the moment is right, pop the question!  Ask us how you can start planning your own Austin picnic marriage proposal, today!

Colorado River Marriage Proposal

Propose on the banks of the Colorado River for a marriage proposal that’s as romantic as it is scenic!  The Boardwalk at Lady Bird Lake is the perfect place to pop the question.  Ask your partner for their hand against a sweeping panoramic of the Austin skyline.  Consult with your proposal planner on the best times to go, so you can avoid any crowds and get the best lighting for those amazing surprise proposal photos!
