Sean's Proposal Story in Madrid

What is your love story?

We met each other at my friends wedding. She came for the after party and we've been inseparable since. I always had the assumption that couples should get married when their houses were in order. I wish I didn't wait this long as she's always been the one and we would have been married long ago. Nevertheless I'm glad that the timing worked out extremely well with utilizing Flytographer. What an incredible service and it's forever encapsulated the special moment for us to share with our family and friends forever.

What made you choose this proposal destination?

We were already booked to spend three weeks with family travelling Spain and Portugal. None of us had spent time in these two countries. I've been planning this engagement for over a year and I'm glad everything just clicked. A few months before heading there not just one friend but two friends mentioned Flytographer. I'm so glad that they did as it helped put the secret proposal mission plan into effect, from the planning of location to the steps in it the concierge and photographer helped me throughout the process and made me much more confident in how to get it done.

What is your proposal story?

Everything wasn't as smooth, the first option was the Royal Palace but found out only days before that it was closed for a holiday. Couldn't manage to convince the group to still go there. Second option was the Crystal Palace which worked out amazingly. I sent my photographer a selfie with my future fiance and I in the morning and shared my live location through Whatsapp. It nearly almost went flawless except I was supposed to convince my girlfriend to hop a little fence into a grass area to take a selfie but she had zero interest in 'trespassing', secondly I was setting up for 'the selfie' and the photographer was supposed to jump in and offer to take the picture but the girlfriend being street smart said to give the phone to a family member. All options out I went down on my knee and proposed on the spot. The photographer was quick on her feet and captured it all. It all worked out in the end splendidly.

Tom's Proposal Story in Madrid

What is your love story?

After 39 years of marriage, there is no doubt that Charlotte, the sweetest girl I've ever met, is the only one for me. The problem is I never formally proposed over 40 years ago when I gave her my engagement ring. A reproposal on our 39th anniversary while in Madrid was an opportunity to correct that long-standing oversight.

What made you choose this proposal destination?

I've heard that Madrid is a beautiful city with romantic charm. It did not disappoint.

What is your proposal story?

The reproposal was a slight twist on the usual Flytographer proposal approach. One big advantage was the element of surprise, as she was not expecting it at all. It could not have gone better. Surprised? Check. Tears of joy? Check. Made up for my long ago clumsy oversight of proper proposal? Check. Those beautiful brown eyes locked on me with pure affection? Double Check!
