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.

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.

Liam & Maty's Proposal Story in Todos Santos
How did you meet?
Friends/Family
What is your love story?
We met through mutual friends at party in college. She looked beautiful and had/has such a pretty smile. We ended up talking on the couch for hours, paying no attention to time or our friends. I knew I couldn't let the moment fade so I asked her on a date right then and there (apparently I was the first guy to ever ask her on a date face-to-face). Out first date went amazingly but due to some unfortunate life circumstances days after the date we had to remain friends for a while. I never stopped pursuing for almost a year...until she asked me on another date and we have been together for 4.5 years. I knew she was the one since the day we met at that party and we just talked for hours AND we still love just talking to one another about anything and everything.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
We have always loved Cerritos/Todos Santos. But last year due to my work schedule, she had to join my family on a trip here without me. My family truly loved her and got the chance to get to know here 1-on-1 without me and vice versa. She learned more about me and who I am by getting to understand where I came from, how I was raised and what that means for who I am today. It is also just a simply beautiful destination.
What is your proposal story?
It was a normal day (I wanted her to be as surprised as possible). We got brunch, went to the beach, etc. I had made a dinner reservation at the Green Room (beachside restaurant) which on it's own is a highlight of the trip. Once we arrived at the restaurant, we got some drinks and enjoyed each other's company, then I suggested a sunset beach walk which isn't abnormal for the destination. Once we on our own down the beach, I just let her get a steps ahead while I got down on the knee...

Carter & Deee's Proposal Story in Cinque Terre
How did you meet?
What is your love story?
I knew she was the one very early on, but I played it cool and we dated for about 7 years before she finally gave me the “green light” to propose along with many other hints along the way.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
Cinque Terre is unique, picturesque, beautiful, and an amazing backdrop for a surprise proposal with photography. It’s not too cliche like other locations, and it’s relatively private off peak season which allowed for us to have a special moment with few spectators.
What is your proposal story?
On the day of, I tricked her into dressing nice for a fancy dinner in Vernazza. Turns out she knew the whole time something was up! I took her out of the hotel, and she was dreading a super public proposal at the main square of the town. Luckily for me, I picked the scenic overlook on the cliffs, which was much more private and picturesque!
Best tip for proposing in Cinque Terre
Keep an eye on the weather. Have an alternate location in case the weather doesn’t cooperate. Choose the overlook if you want to have something more private. Near sunset is absolutely perfect for the pictures and setting. Choose an off-peak time to travel if you care about crowds because it gets crowded during the summer.

University
What is your love story?
We met very early at university as we lived in the same building. We saw each other a few times in the same places and eventually started to hang out. I remember one night specifically where we stayed up until 4.30AM just chatting in the lobby area since we got on so well! We were dating less than a month later, and we’ve been together ever since, over six years later! I knew she was the one because I have never had that kind of connection with anyone else. We clicked so quickly and have so much in common. I have never looked back and can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with her ❤️
What made you choose this proposal destination?
We wanted to go somewhere special. I had never been to Florence, and she only been when she was very little and didn’t remember being there. Florence is such a beautiful city, we both agreed very quickly that it would be the perfect place to get engaged!
What is your proposal story?
We woke up bright and early so that we could get to Piazzale Michelangelo at the top of the hill, overlooking the city skyline. When we got there, it was nice and quiet and the sun was just beginning to rise. Sanj already knew what was about to happen as she made sure I asked her to dress up nicely 😆 once the top of the stairway at the centre became empty, with the perfect view of the city, I got down on one knee and popped the question, while our photographer Emma was there to capture the moment with some great photos
Best tip for proposing in Florence
If you’re the type of person who doesn’t want to propose in a big crowd, I would definitely recommend getting up early and doing it in the morning. This worked perfectly for me as there were very few people there when I chose to do it. Also make sure to dress appropriately - it’s great to look nice for the photos but it may be colder than you think in the morning, especially at the top of a hill! Take jackets to wear while you are walking around and getting photos taken in different places

Maggie’s father hired me to do some electrical work at her house. Maggie kept calling me back to do “work” at her house even though there was no real work to be done. After the third time, I asked her if she would just want to grab dinner instead of her paying me my minimum to show up for a job. She quickly agreed and the rest is history.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
Before my most recent deployment with the US Army, I told her to choose any country in the world to go on a vacation once I get home. She chose Italy and said she was most excited to go to Venice. So I chose Venice as the city to propose.

Colton & Alyssa's Proposal Story in Florence

School
What is your love story?
My fiancée and I met a few years ago studying abroad in Florence, Italy. Coming from different universities in California we were so lucky to have been sent to the same program! We met on the very first day abroad while taking a tour of the city and I knew she was somebody I wanted to get to know more. The next morning I saw her downstairs and, me being terrible with names and having met soooo many new people the night before, walked up thinking “I’m just going to be brave and tell her I forgot her name” so that’s what I did… her response, “I’m Alyssa… you’re Colton, right?” Instantly I knew I had lost this battle as the person who forgot her name and she remembered mine. Turns out she was playing her own game and wanted to make sure I remembered her name from then on, which of course I did. After that moment we spent as much time together as we could while abroad and continued talking after returning home. We soon started dating, called it official, moved in together after a couple years and now are celebrating our engagement! We couldn’t be happier and we also can’t get enough of telling this story as I’m sure everyone can assume from reading this.
What made you choose this proposal destination?
As mentioned, we met in Florence, Italy so proposing in Florence was the perfect cherry on top of the cake! I did some research on different locations around the city that we could set the proposal and decided that the Miniato al Monte was the perfect place since it over looks the city but also isn’t super busy. She wanted to make sure that our engagement was as special and intimate as possible so I wanted to find a place that felt like we were the only two people who had ever existed. Our Flytographer professional, Emma, confirmed that this was a great place to fit the description and was able to plan all the minor details I wouldn’t have thought of not being a local. With some coordination and a lot of nervousness the proposal turned out perfectly and now we have this story to tell for the rest of our lives!
What is your proposal story?
Leading up to the proposal I wanted to have her sitting around 50% sure it could or couldn’t happen while on our vacation. That way she was surprised when it happened but also not so underprepared that she didn’t have an outfit she liked or her hair/nails done. This balance of deceit and cover-ups lead to a long string of questions like “why are we taking a tour of this church? And why is it three hours long? And why can’t we go back to hotel to change into nice outfits before dinner?” and so on. Eventually, she seemed to have caught on when I recommended she leave her purse (which is not something a boyfriend randomly suggests) and she agreed without questioning. We walked up the hill to our “church tour” where we met with our photographer, Emma. I got down on one knee, so nervous and full of anxiety and excitement I can’t remember a single thing I said, can’t remember how long I was down there for, and can’t remember if she even said yes. She, also feeling similar emotions as I, didn’t give me her finger to put the ring on. This was the moment her and I look back on and are glad that there are photos of and not video. It was the single most incredible moment of my life and I’m so glad to have it saved in pictures because our memories would not have served us so.
Best tip for proposing in Florence
Something to consider is that Florence is a popular place to visit so even in the low travel times there are still people around virtually anywhere but there are always ways to work around people and sort of “phase” them out of the shoot. Times where travel isn’t so busy is nicer. Another thing to note is time of year plays a huge part in the weather. We got SUPER lucky getting engaged in December because the three days leading up to our engagement was heavily windy and the days following was cloudy so we were extremely blessed that our day was perfect.
