Reilly & Thu's Proposal Story in Dallas
How did you meet?
Friends/Family
What is your love story?
R: I think once you know, you know. I knew I wanted to propose for awhile, and it was mainly a matter of figuring out the best way to do it. We've grown so much as a couple over the past few years, and I wanted to make sure I tried to make a special moment just that.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
R: Flippen Park is a beautiful park with great scenery, in a historic part of Dallas. We had pictures done at this park before for a previous life event, so it was nice to return. I knew I wanted to propose in a more secluded location, and I felt this park was a great place to return to.
What is your proposal story?
T: Leading up to the proposal, Reilly had told me that we were attending a university alumni event. Little did I know, a beautiful setup was waiting for me in the gazebo. Reilly talked about our love story and past memories, got down on one knee, and asked if our future could be one forever together. He surprised me by arranging for our families and closest friends to celebrate together after.

Evan & Bianca's Proposal Story in Boston
How did you meet?
School
What is your love story?
We met in middle school and started dating in our sophomore year of highschool. We have been together for almost 10 years now. I knew she was the one for a very long time. We have grown together from teens to almost fully fledged adults.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
Bianca was visiting our mutual friend in Boston on her spring break. She wasn't expecting me to be there as I had to work. I figured this was my best opportunity to actually surprise her.
What is your proposal story?
After Spending a few days in Boston, Bianca was already suspicious due to a few things. our mutual friend had ask to get their nails done together and asked her to wear something nice on the day I had planned to propose. We had cover stories for these things but you could see how she might get the idea that I may propose. However after spending most of the day walking through the museum expecting to see me around every corner. She started to think she was misinterpreting the signs that she saw and that I wasn't going to be proposing. She finally left the museum feeling dejected but then rounded the corner to see me and the photographer waiting for her.
Best tip for proposing in Boston
It was very cold the day I proposed and lot of the grass was dead. I would probably recommend proposing a bit later into spring so that its warmer and the plants have more of a chance to grow. however, we did have the advantage that there were fewer people outside and had most of the emerald necklace to ourselves

What is your love story?
I am very particular about showing up places on time, and Matilda managed to beat me to the coffee shop where we had our first date. Instant green flag. Not only that, when I arrived she was reading a book, and I love to read, so we bonded over that. And to top it off, she loves baseball. We bonded over the fact that I had been to every major league baseball stadium and that despite being raised in Poland, her father (who is American) raised her to love the St. Louis Cardinals.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
We live about a twenty minute walk from Central Park, so it being nearby made it an easy choice. But we also went there on our third date and that was where we really fell in love.
What is your proposal story?
I had warned Matilda not to schedule work for the day of, so she knew it was coming. But sort of like Romeo and Juliet, even though they spoil the ending in the beginning, what's important is you don't know how you'll get there. So that was the real surprise for her. We walked over to Central Park and she didn't know where we were going. Then when we arrived at the proposal spot, I turned to her and she knew this is where it would happen. I pulled out my phone to take a selfie of us (the signal to Monika to start shooting), and then pulled out the ring. I said "I asked you this a month into us dating, so this is the last time I get to ask. Will you marry me?" and knelt down. She knelt down to kiss me and said yes :)
Best tip for proposing in New York City
Shoot with our photographer, Monika! She was excellent. She made a great recommendation to move our proposal time up 30 minutes, since the weather was unseasonably nice and people would be swarming to Central Park after they got off work.

What made you choose this proposal destination?
I grew up in Japan and remember how beautiful it was during cherry blossom season.
What is your proposal story?
Our flight to Japan was cancelled and then delayed in Chicago. I didn’t have my checked luggage so I had to buy all new outfits. We all were a little sick from the bullet train after a night of partying in Tokyo. Also on the train my partner casually mentions she lost her passport. I told her if she wanted to stay in Japan she could have just told me and not lose her passport. Even after going through all that we still met our photographer at the spot and I still wanted to spend the rest of my life with her.
Best tip for proposing in Kyoto
Kyoto is very busy during cherry blossom season, find the right photographer to give you different options. Trust your photographer they are the experts.

What is your love story?
I love to live my life very fast paced and love putting myself in high stress envioronments however whenever she’s things get easier. I love to slow down when she’s around and not feel stressed. It’s like a different version of me who can take the time to enjoy things I usually might not.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
My partner is of Irish decent and the last time I visited Dublin solo I had one of my best experiances ever on travel. So when choosing a place I knew it had to be ireland. With us both loving history and nature the castle had to be the place.
What is your proposal story?
I woke up not feeling well honestly and I know now that that feeling was nervousness. A feeling I had not explored in quite some time but the plan stayed the same. Book of Kells in the morning and the castle between the Book of Kells and our next excursion. We ended up finishing Book of Kells much earlier than I expected so I was trying to stall and delay until the right time. Looking back we added an extra 10,000 steps to our day because of the one hour of downtime between Book of Kells and our photoshoot. It was all worth it in the end when the moment came.
Best tip for proposing in Dublin
Wear thick and dark pants! Your knee will get wet and the last thing you might want is it to be stained in the photos.

We were roommates in college. We got to know each other through Wii, card game nights, and a piloting organization. I knew she was the one when she cooked me a meal… and cut the skin off the cucumbers and fruit (I’m a bit of a food snob).

Florence is an artistic, food-loving, architectural beauty. It is lgbtq+ friendly too!
What is your proposal story?
Camilla, my photographer, helped me to prep for our big day. It was entirely a surprise (even to my fiancé who can tell you the end of the movie before it starts). I was supposed to que in Camilla via a selfie, but the moment I stepped under the portico to get on one knee, I sobbed. I cracked under pressure and stood, handed my fiancée the entire ring box in tears, then dropped on one knee in disarray. The photos were beautiful and truly captured my chaotic nature. My fiancée held me in her arms in shock and compassion. It was a perfect moment.

Dale & Jaicie's Proposal Story in Banff
How did you meet?
School
What is your love story?
Me and Jaicie are high school sweethearts and have found a way to keep our love strong through long distance during college, new jobs and relocations and many other trials and tribulations. Just being able to persevere through that showed us how much we truly love each other and can withstand anything life brings our way.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
I chose the proposal destination because I know Jaicie wanted something scenic and private. Doing it in Lake Minnewanka gave us just that and the pictures turned out greater than we expected.
What is your proposal story?
The proposal went great! Martina helped create a great proposal plan that instilled the confidence in me to make the moment special. Jaicie was suspicious our whole trip but was still surprised when the moment came and I couldn’t ask for more.
Best tip for proposing in Banff
My best advice would be to bundle up as for our photo shoot it was -7 C and gave me and Jaicie a little bit of a challenge with our photo shoot.

How did you meet?
School
What is your love story?
She is so impressive in every way and we have the same vision for our lives together. She makes me better just by being who she is, with me just trying to keep up!
What made you choose this proposal destination?
She loves ruins and history so I thought that the forum location with the view available would be the best. We could get pictures in iconic places and the easily accessible viewpoint made a lot of sense.
What is your proposal story?
It was supposed to be an easy walk and proposal in a spot by ourselves. All the way until the morning of, it was not supposed to rain. The morning comes and it would just not stop raining. Of course the photographer and I were sending frantic messages trying to figure out the new timing and location to deal with the rain. The photographer was able to go to the location and essentially wait for us and for the rain. When the rain cleared up for a minute we decided to go with the original plan and pop the question. Very grateful for everyone’s patience and the pictures turned out beautifully.
Best tip for proposing in Rome
Don’t trust the weather app! I would recommend going early in the morning, while it might be inconvenient to have such a long day for your proposal, it is well worth it to not have crowds of people in your pictures.
