6 Boston-Based Ideas for a Perfect Proposal

So, you’ve decided on Boston for your proposal, but you’re not quite sure what part is right for you? Here are some of our top 6 Boston-Based Ideas for a Perfect Proposal.

Boston has played a crucial role in our country’s history. Being home to so many influential figures, events, and places, The City on the Hill possesses a dense collection of impressive attractions. A vibrant college town as well, Boston offers as much outdoor fun for active couples as it does historically significant landmarks.    

Asking for your partner’s hand in marriage is a life-changing moment. Choose Paparazzi Proposals for your Boston proposal, a leading nationwide proposal photography company, to capture and preserve your loved one’s reaction to the beginning of a very exciting time together. 

Here’s a list of different Boston-based locations and activities capable of providing a great backdrop for the announcement of a loving commitment.  

1. Emerald Necklace Park System

A verdant chain of nine parks, each holding a charm of their own, The Emerald Necklace is one of Boston’s most popular public areas.  You’ll have more than a thousand acres and miles of wooded pathways and water features to enjoy if you choose an outdoor proposal here. 

Add a park proposal package to arrive at your chosen location and find a blanket, chilled champagne, two dozen red roses, and your hand-written love note. As well as capturing the build-up, surprise, and reaction moments, your photographer will also get posed portrait shots afterward to help commemorate this special time.

2. Boston Public Library

This impressive historical landmark is one of Boston’s most popular venues. Home to a sizable art collection and dramatic architecture, the building surrounds a beautiful courtyard displaying a peaceful fountain and a manicured garden. If you’re looking for a quiet place to propose, you can’t go wrong with a library.

3. Boston Light

A lively seascape is a breathtaking place to propose. The Boston Light, first built in 1716, is the country’s first lighthouse. Located on Little Brewster Island, there are ferries and popular guided tours that will help you access this remote, but striking location. 

4. Public Garden Swan Boats

Located within The Emerald Necklace, the Public Garden is the nation’s oldest botanical garden. The lake at the center of this landmark site is home to an iconic attraction worthy of individual mention, especially if romance is involved. The city’s beloved antique, Victorian-era Swan Boats are enjoyed by those of all ages as they happily glide along the lake’s tranquil surface.

5. Sail Boston Harbor at Sunset

A private two-hour sunset sailboat tour of Boston Harbor will give you an exciting view of the city during the most romantic time of day. As well as seeing the city’s glimmering skyline, you’ll also be able to enjoy some nautical history as you sail past the massive USS Constitution.
