As school and careers pulled them in different directions, they found themselves living on opposite coasts and eventually losing touch. However, fate would dictate a much happier ending!

Twenty years had passed, and Tara had since moved back to New Jersey. Once here, she decided she would go see her friend’s, who were actually Joe’s sisters, run the New York City Marathon. Having not seen Joe in so long, she hesitated. After giving in to a little friendly peer pressure, she gave in went. Little did they both know this would change both of their lives forever!

The two immediately picked up where they left of, and the rest is, as they say, history! When planning the proposal, Joseph wanted to make it as special as Tara made him feel. Having reunited there, New York City was a place that held important meaning to both of them. So he contacted Paparazzi Proposals who helped him plan a magnificent proposal near Central Park’s legendary Bow Bridge. He wasn’t done yet! He also had them provide proposal photography to photograph every second of their amazing engagement moment! They now had genuine pictures of the actual moment he proposed to share with family and friends! Click to see all the pictures from their amazing day.

They met through a mutual friend in college. Attending the same gym as one another, Andre eventually summoned the courage to ask for her number. A friendship quickly developed and they began dating soon afterwards.  Once he was ready to propose, he hired Paparazzi Proposals to help plan and secretly provide proposal photography!

Here’s how it worked. We helped Andre plan a romantic stroll on the Brooklyn Bridge and showed home a beautifully picturesque spot to provide a gorgeous backdrop for him to propose in front of. We also had a paparazzi-style photographer with a telephoto lens secretly snapping pictures as strolled across the bridge. When Andre got down on his knee to propose, we captured every second of actual moment they got engaged, providing genuine photographs of this beautiful once-in-a-lifetime event!

However, what’s even more special is their love story.

Proposing to her meant so much to Mitchell. So he hired Paparazzi Proposals to provide surprise engagement photography and capture this special once in a lifetime moment to cherish forever!

They met a little under 2 years ago.  Mitchell is a sober member of AA and director of a 40 bed drug treatment facility. One day he received a call from a friend asking if he would accept a new patient. After the friend explained how special of a person this young lady was, Mitchell agreed to give her an opportunity.

That’s when he met Bryann.  Within a week of moving in she was declaring “I am going to marry Mitch Brown!”  In the months that followed, she remained sober and became one of the more “responsible” clients of the facility. As time passed, they became very close friends. He was forced to fly to NYC for a family emergency and needed someone to step in and help with drug testing the residents in his absence.  Bree not only accepted that challenge, she handled her responsibilities in a capacity Mitch never expected.  Learning this upon his return, her offered her a  job.  She accepted, and still insisted she would one day marry Mitch!

Months later, as his recovery continued to progress, he finally felt he is was in position to be the type of man she truly deserved. he asked her out and the rest as they say, is history. It’s amazing how the universe conspired to bring two people, one troubled and in pain, together in a way that they could help support and lift each other up with love.

The spot he chose to propose was equally special.  It just so happened to be the exact spot in Washington Square Park where his mother and father met 50 years ago.  This spot had such a special meaning to them, it was the perfect place to accept Bree into their family. It doesn’t get much better than this!

However, it wasn’t until he moved back to Texas that that the two became serious. As an anniversary approached, he decided he wanted to surprise her by proposing. So he reached out to Paparazzi Proposals for some great proposal ideas.

Knowing he wanted a great view to serve as a backdrop for his perfect proposal, and a little help from the staff of the Resort at Pelican Hill, Newport CA, a “private tour” of the resort was scheduled. As the sun began to set, their tour concluded on a private terrace which had been closed off for them. Anand slowly got down on his knee, pulled out a stunning engagement ring from Robbins Brothers, and popped the question. The pictures can tell you the story. Spoiler alert…she said “YES!”

The post Great Proposal Ideas – Anand & Alisha’s Engagement, Newport CA appeared first on Paparazzi Proposals.

All that changed a few years back when they finally met during a chance encounter at an alumni gathering. They hit it off, and have been deeply in love ever since.

While Jewel may have had an idea James would someday propose, she had NO idea where or when it would finally happen. Knowing he wanted to surprise her, James decided to sneakily pop the question while the two were visiting Southern California. Your standard restaurant proposal was simply not going to cut it. So he contacted our friends at Gondola Adventures to arrange for a private romantic ride.

With a little help from the gondolier, a message in a bottle suddenly appeared in the path of their vessel. As Jewel plucked the bottle from the water and began to read the note, she still had no idea what was about to happen. As she read the special message lovingly written by James, which included the words “will you marry me?” James quietly pulled the ring from his pocket. Needless to say, Jewel was floored as James gently slipped the ring on her finger. Little did she know James has arranged for proposal pictures, care of Paparazzi Proposals!

With the help of her brother and a few friends, he brought her to what she thought was a simple rooftop reunion dinner with some old friends. Unbeknownst to her, that was only half the plan!

Once they reached the roof,  a pathway lined with rose petals immediately grabbed her attention. As they made their way towards the end of the path, she noticed a small table lined with some more flowers and champagne. As she wondered where her friends may be and why this odd little table was sitting there, she noticed one last item…a diamond engagement ring! As Alex slowly dropped to a knee and asked her to marry him, their friends and family, who were patiently waiting behind the scenes, began to emerge and congratulate the two. The epic celebration had begun!

Knowing he wanted to capture this once in a lifetime moment, Alex hired Paparazzi Proposals for some surprise engagement photography. Kathy had no idea we snapped photographs of the entire event! Both were thrilled they now had genuine photographs of the actual moment he proposed and they became an engaged couple!
