Most Creative New York Proposals of September

Saying goodbye to September and with October just beginning, we’ve decided to put together some of our favorite and most creative proposals, which we had the pleasure of capturing in New York!

From 21 pizza boxes and roses, to family and friends holding a “Will you marry me?” sign in Grand Central, there was no shortage of creativity and romance in the awesome engagement proposals we had the opportunity of shooting this month. As the nation’s leading surprise engagement proposal photography company,  there’s no idea we haven’t seen, planned or captured. In case you’re in need of some inspiration, we’re sharing our favorites.

1. A Slice of Love

For the past two years, Josh and Lindy had been traversing all five boroughs to visit NYC’s 25 most iconic pizza places. Fast-forward 24 pizza restaurants later, they were only missing one. Given how central a role pizza has played in their lives, Josh knew pizza should be a central theme in his engagement proposal. He set up a trail of empty pizza boxes, each with a written memory from a time that he knew he loved her along with photos. The trail of pizza boxes took Lindy down memory lane, reliving unforgettable moments in their relationship. The last pizza box had a pizza from one of their favorite places and had “Will you marry me?” written on the box. Click here to read how they met and their full love story!

2. Help from Family and Friends

Sometimes, the picture-perfect proposal just needs a little help from family and friends. When walking through Grand Central with Adreana, Sam arranged for all of their family and friends to be waiting upstairs, each holding a sign with a word, putting together a very special question.

3. A Little Party Never Hurt Nobody

And speaking of family and friends, why not make your proposal the theme to a celebration? Nick planned his engagement to be at the center stage of a surprise post-celebration.

4. City Lights

A romantic and picture-perfect engagement proposal doesn’t have to be extremely complicated or expensive. If you get creative with the location and time, it can be amazing. Shane surprised Kimberly with a diamond ring in Brooklyn Park, the entire proposal illuminated by the iconic Brooklyn Bridge and NYC skyline!

5. Perfect Picnic

Always a classic, a picnic proposal is timelessly romantic. Fall weather is the perfect time to plan a delicious and beautifully decorated picnic outside, and the best part is we can do all the setup for you!
