We have partnerships across the United States, because have I mentioned- we’re in over 26 cities. One of our favorite partners resides here locally in New York and they’re committed to one thing, perfect picnics. With their help, we’ve been able to capture some amazing picnic proposals, and with the vast amount of beautiful spots in New York, a picnic proposal might be just what you need.

When it comes to proposals, you need an expert. And that’s why when it comes to a picnic proposal in New York, we’re working with picnic experts, Perfect Picnic. We don’t work alone and neither should you. To get the picnic started, we’ve put together some of our favorite locations in New York to indulge in a delicious picnic, but if a picnic proposal isn’t your thing- not to worry. We have a range of packages for you to choose from!

1. Central Park Picnic

The most popular and well-known park in New York (and most visited urban park in the United States), Central Park is an ideal hotspot for a proposal. From Sheep Meadow to Bow Bridge, despite the tourism it attracts, the massive area and landscape offers multiple locations within the park for a more secluded and intimate picnic affair. And wherever you choose to propose in the park is where Perfect Picnic will deliver your picnic.

2. Rooftop Picnic

If nature isn’t your partner’s thing, a rooftop is a picture-perfect picnic idea. Enjoy a glass of champagne, savory treats, and the backdrop of the greatest city in the world. We’ll be sure to capture the moment you get down on one knee and pop out a diamond ring.

3. Washington Square Park Picnic

Enjoy the views of the famous Washington Square Arch & Fountain, while enjoying fresh meats, creamy chocolates, fine cheeses, and bubbly champagne (all offered by Perfect Picnic). Washington Square is perfect for those seeking a smaller park or somewhere closer to downtown. There are also street performers, musicians, and all sorts of other entertaining acts usually happening year-round (well, except the cold winter). Why not arrange for one of the “street musicians” to serenade your big moment? It’ll be like a movie, except better because it’s real.

4. Gondola Picnic

Who says a picnic has to be on land? A proposal has not limits and neither should your picnic. Choose from one of the packages Perfect Picnic has to offer and take it on-board with you for a romantic (and yummy) gondola ride. While your gondolier cruises you through the water, pour some champagne and toast your new fiancée.

5. Hotel Picnic

If the weather isn’t cooperating, (thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows) take your picnic proposal inside. Whether you want to make a getaway with it by booking a suite or doing it in your own home, this will give your proposal more privacy and the freedom to decorate the space romantically. The outdoors isn’t for everyone, but romanticize your lunch by having it styled like a picnic.

A nice gem that’s sometimes hard to find and yet so apparent is Washington Square Park. We understand if you are so overwhelmed with all the choices. Washington Square Park is in the middle of the NYU area and there’s literally something going on in all corners of that park. You’ll see a mime in one end and then someone juggling in the other. So much excitement and this is exactly what you want in your engagement.

The High Line

The city is ever changing. What was once a White Castle might’ve turned into a building or what was once a building might’ve turned into a park. That’s what happened with The High Line. The High Line is park that is on top of buildings in the Meat Packing District part of Manhattan. During the 1930s, a train ran through there and delivered supplies. The project to develop this area began in 2002 and since then, this park has been a hit. It’s one of the best ideas the city came up with. What isn’t there to love about The High Line?

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!
