It was just a matter of where and when. He wanted everything to be perfect. The setting had to be just right, the moments leading up to it romantic. But that wasn’t enough. He also wanted to capture all of it, providing them with a way to chronicle this amazing moment in their relationship.

That’s where Paparazzi Proposals came in. With our unique surprise proposal photography, we were able to secretly photograph all of the moments leading up to, during and after his proposal, giving them genuine photos of the actual moment he dropped to a knee and proposed. He set up a private tour and tasting at Orfile Vineyards and Winery, which would provide a stunning backdrop for the moment they would become an engaged couple.

As they quietly sat sipping on wine and enjoying their unbelievably beautiful surroundings sitting amongst the vineyards, Paul made his move. As he professed how much she meant to him and how much he loved her, he dropped to a knee and asked “will you marry me.” Shocked and elated Harriet quickly said “yes!” Our paparazzi-style photographer, who had been discreetly snapping shots of the couple from afar, now popped out, and the two posed for some amazingly beautiful newly-engaged couple portraits. Take a look at all of the pictures from this magical moment here.

Harriet was thrilled Paul had hired Paparazzi Proposals to capture this incredible moment. They would now be able to let their family and friends in on this romantic and monumental event in their relationship, and cherish these mementos for a long time, even sharing with their children some day.

As their lives pulled them in different directions, they eventually lost touch. However, a chance encounter 10 years later reconnected them…and they’ve been inseparable ever since!

Ready to pop the big question, Scott reached out to Paparazzi Proposals for some proposal ideas, location possibilities and our surprise proposal photography service! He chose the beautiful Lovers Key Beach. Beside it’s picturesque views and perfect name for a marriage proposal, it’s also home to one of Christy’s favorite restaurants, “Flippers on The Bay.” So when her friends told her they had planned a beach hang out and dinner afterwards, she had NO reason to believe there was something much bigger about to happen. As they laughed on the beach enjoying the afternoon with their friends, Scott made his move. Pulling her away for a romantic stroll, he began to express how much she meant to him. Pausing and turning towards her, he slowly got down on one knee, and proposed! She said “yes” and they were quickly joined by their friends who were ready to celebrate with some champagne!

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!”

Teaming up with Gondola Adventures, we helped Jose plan a romantic private gondola ride. As the two soaked in the peace and serenity of their ride, Jose decided it was time to make his move.

He slowly turned and looked her in the eyes. As he took hold of  her hand, he professed his undying love and asked if she would spend the rest of her life with him. She responded with a kiss, hug and a resounding…”yes!”

Here’s a special Los Angeles Surprise Proposal 

The post Proposal Ideas – Jose & Janelle’s Newport Beach Gondola Engagement appeared first on Paparazzi Proposals.

It was the first anniversary of their very first date and so Rich wanted to to take Shannon back to the spot where it all had started: the restaurant where they had their first date.

Picture NoMad, the cool part of town North of Madison Square Park in Manhattan. Fall was finally here and  we were ready to help Rich secure his girl! Our paparazzi photographer was waiting out of sight to capture Rich and Shannon arriving and to photograph this amazing proposal. Shannon had no idea and was bowled over by Rich’s gesture.

We loved being part of this proposal as it was simple, evocative and the joy on both Shannon and Rich’s faces is evident. It doesn’t hurt that New York is at her most photogenic at this time of year too, which set the scene beautifully for their proposal photos.

You can see all the beautiful pictures from this proposal here.

Also, sorry Paris but New York is the city of love these days, what with the love on display in Central Park all year ’round, or Brian and Stacey , proving that wine makes everything better with their recent proposal photos taken at Vintner’s Winery, New York has provided the backdrop for hundreds of proposals.

If you are thinking of proposing, or simply want to get some ideas on how the kids are doing it these days, whether in New York or anywhere else get in touch. We love to hear from you!

Under the ruse of going to lunch for a family birthday the couple got all dressed up and headed to Central Park.

As they walked down the steps of Bethesda Fountain Minaz dropped to one knee and asked Taslim to marry him. Bethesda Fountain was an important place for the couple as it is Taslim’s favorite part of Central Park. Our discreet photographer was on hand to capture the moment on camera however the story does not end there.

After saying yes (YAY!), the couple strolled around Bethesda Fountain some more and Taslim was delighted to meet her nieces, who had been in on the plot from the beginning. The nieces were gleefully holding signs saying “She Said Yes!”.

As they all walked to the restaurant little did Taslim know that Minaz had more surprises planner. He had brought together both families for a lunch to surprise her and celebrate this amazing proposal.

You can view all these beautiful pictures here.

From our point of view, the level of thought and planning involved in getting two large families to congregate is what makes this surprise engagement all the more resonant, Minaz knew that Taslim would enjoy having her family involved in her proposal. We can only guess at the number of behind-the-scenes phonecalls and emails Minaz managed to get the whole thing planned and in secret!

Here at Paparazzi Proposals, stories like this make us nostalgic for all of the many proposals that have taken place with us in Central Park, from our very first Central Park engagement photo shoot, with David and Anna way back when in 2011 to the positively filmic snow-filled engagement photos of Mike and Ellyce earlier this year. Central Park delivers on romance, impact and wow factor!

If you agree and are thinking along similar lines, or perhaps want to propose at other iconic landmarks around the city, please get in touch. We’ll be thrilled to help!

Our friends at Gondola Adventures and booked a romantic dinner cruise. After their meal dockside the couple were taken out in a stunning gondola along the canals in Newport beach, with a message in a bottle waiting and a ring in his pocket the scene was set for this amazing proposal.

As always our sneaky snapper was on hand to capture every moment and you can view all the beautiful pictures here.

AKA: New York Riverside provides the perfect scene for a surprise proposal

It was one of those perfect New York days, sunny and crisp, ideal for a romantic stroll along the river and checking out the skyline. Our heroes in this tale of love ‘n’ marriage are Ivan and Joanna, who had come into the city to celebrate Joanna’s birthday. Before dinner Ivan took Joanna to her favorite spot on the river.

Bundled up in coats and enjoying the view from downtown Manhattan, with the sun setting Ivan gave Joanna an early birthday card with a very important question inside.

As Joanna read the card Ivan dropped to one knee and pulled out a gorgeous engagement ring that he had hidden in his coat. The dice was cast! Joanna said yes and the couple then posed for some more photos.

You can view all the pictures from this proposal here. 

New York City at this time of year is unspeakably beautiful and the sun setting behind the Brooklyn Bridge, complete with our windswept happy couple, make these engagement photographs classic and intimate in all the right ways.
