Our Favorite Proposal Stories

Happy Friday, everyone! There’s nothing we love more than Fridays, except maybe proposal stories…we’re kind of suckers for a good, sappy and romantic marriage proposal. Below is a list of a few of our favorite proposal stories. Enjoy! 

Carly & Brendon  

How They Asked featured Carly and Brendon’s wedding proposal over on their blog, and it is a tearjerker for sure!  Their sweet story begins on the dating app, Bumble, and ends with the most thoughtful proposal ever! Carly and Brendon have spent many beautiful moments while dating exploring the beautiful mountains of Colorado. A few months into their relationship, Brendon planned a weekend getaway in Crested Butte, CO. During their trip, the two shared their first “I love you” in front of a sweet little cafe. Later on in their relationship, Brendon planned another surprise Colorado getaway…only this time he had an even BIGGER surprise for Carly. As they walked the streets of downtown Crested Butte, they came across the same cafe where the two said “I love you” for the first time. Carly quickly turned around to point of the cafe to Brendon, but he was already down on one knee! My heart is swooning over here! To read the full story of Carly & Brendon’s proposal, check them out over on How They Asked! 

Chadwick & Kristelle 

The proposal story of Chadwick and Kristelle is one for the books, to say the least! Chadwick and Kristelle decided to leave their home in the Philippines and go on a trip to South Africa. They would only be on holiday for a few days, so Chadwick decided to give The Perfect Proposal a call and get some help planning how he was going to pop the question. The team got to work and planned a picnic overlooking the scenic mountains right outside of the 12 Apostles Hotel. They Chadwick every step of the way. They put together the picnic, set up a fun “Marry Me” sign, they even organized a photographer and videographer to capture their special moment! If you are thinking about proposing and need some guidance on how to pop the question, check out their proposal packages over on their website! 

Kassidy & Michael 

Now get ready folks…because this proposal is a DOOZY. This groom not only pulled off a surprise proposal, but also a surprise wedding all in the SAME DAY. And his gorgeous bride never saw it coming! He even got her to pick out her very own wedding dress without her putting two and two together. Michael cunningly planned a trip to “visit friends” in California for he and Kassidy, when in reality he hired a small team of vendors and family to help him pull off the most magical surprise of their lives. You can read their full story and check out the rest of their photos over on the Junebug Weddings blog!
