Enjoy our five favorite Seattle proposals we’ve helped put together and photograph. You can also browse through all the different customizable proposal photography packages we offer in our Seattle proposal guide. 

1. Space Needle Proposal

What better way to show the infinite depths of your love than by proposing at the top of the world, or the closest thing to it, the top of the Space Needle. Sheldon reached out to Paparazzi Proposals to make sure we captured his future fiancé’s face of bewilderment, caused not only by the stunning views, but the moment he got one knee. He even booked an extra hour of photography to fully capture the whole experience, which won’t soon be forgotten, and thanks to our candid photos, now it never will be.

2. Nature Proposal

From Kubota Gardens to the Japanese Gardens in the Arboretum, Seattle boasts beautiful nature scenes, which make the perfect atmosphere for a proposal. Zach knew the power of nature when he reached out to us to plan his simple, but timeless garden proposal. Our photographer made sure to remain invisible in order to fully capture that picture-perfect moment. Want to see the full story? Check it out. 

3. Grand Central Arcade Proposal

This lovely meeting point was originally Squire’s Opera House, and has been around since 1879. What better way to show the strength of your love than by proposing in front of a cultural landmark? Paul thought so, and turned a walk by one of his partner’s favorite outdoor spots into a surprise proposal. But we decided it shouldn’t stop there and added some originality to a classic. When least expected, she turned to find a blackboard with a checklist of all the paramount moments in their relationship, including the moment she said “YES!” Make sure to check out all of the proposal packages we offer for all your different options.

4. Ferry Proposal

On a romantic ferry ride to Bainbridge Island, with the calming fresh air and serenity of the water, makes for a wonderful surprise proposal. Have the ferry sprinkled with roses and our photographer will be ready to capture the moment you commit to spend your lives together.

5. Helicopter Proposal

Tell them that they mean the world to you by showing them it. A helicopter ride is a perfect proposal to start the adventure you’re about to embark on and get a breath-taking view of Seattle. Show them you aren’t afraid of heights or commitment. If she isn’t blown away by the aerial view of the city, she definitely will be when you pop the question.  But don’t just take our word for it, check out what our clients have to say.
