On the 19th of February 2022, Chiraag and Bianca got engaged!

It was a beautiful proposal in Rooiels, this area is located past Gordon’s Bay and on the way to Pringle bay. Chiraag booked an Airbnb apartment as this was his dream, to spend a romantic weekend away, escape the city and be together. They are both from Cape Town so they know a lot about the coastal towns and love exploring new places. A perfect proposal for this lovely couple.

The Airb&b he booked had a big wooden deck that overlooked the beach and ocean. It was dependent on whether we used the inside area or the outside deck. He wanted the decor to be romantic and beautiful. He mentioned lots of candles, flowers and a sign. We asked Coral to make the flower arrangements for us, as she is the expert when it comes to flowers.

A photographer, Jodi was hired to capture the moment on film. The final addition was a private chef who cooked them a lovely dinner that night.

On the day, it was early evening when they arrived at the apartment. The weather was PERFECT! Bianca had no idea about the proposal and what she would see on entry. Placed on the outside deck was the decor with the views behind. He asked that magical question and she said YES.

They enjoyed a couples shoot, followed by a private dinner for two, can one get more romantic! We just love it… this Rooiels marriage proposal was stunning, a place that will certainly seal the deal.

Congrats to Chiraag and Bianca on their engagement. We hope you enjoy your future together.

On Sunday 7th February 2021, this wonderful couple got engaged.

We booked 12 Apostles Hotel as the views are amazing from the ceremony lawns.

This lovely couple arrived, walked to the arch which we covered with rose gold balloons. They stood under the arch and he asked the girl of his dreams to marry him. She said yes, which was so magical to watch.

After the proposal, they enjoyed a couples shoot with the photographer. We always suggest booking a photographer so they capture the proposal, followed by a couples shoot. These photos are so wonderful to keep for memories. They can be used in your wedding or save-the-date invites. We can also create a photo book for you, this is amazing as a gift to the family of your special days.

This Cape Town garden proposal was one to remember…

Blue skies, ocean, and mountain views with bright sunshine. We just love it when Cape Town shows off. Cape Town is really a very special place with so much to offer. You can visit mountains, the beach, rivers and Winelands all in one day!

We wish this very happy couple all the best for a happy and successful future together. LIVE, LAUGH AND LOVE 🙂

On the 15th February 2020, Aadil popped the question to the love if his life at a beach sunrise proposal. She said YES!

This lovely couple has been together 5 years, they have been dating since being at Stellenbosch University. Aadil approached her at the Neelsie one day and the rest was history. They moved from Cape Town to Joburg for work but Cape Town has always held a special place in their hearts thus Aadil booked a weekend away to pop the question. We chatted about what he wanted and a beach setup was the chosen location. It was a PERFECT day for them which is so lucky!

Nikita’s favourite colours are blue & white so this worked so well with the beach theme. As they wanted a VERY quiet private proposal, we suggested Beta beach at sunrise. They were the only people on the beach which was magical. Sunrise is one of the most amazing times of day, the lighting is great for photos and hardly any other people around.

On arrival they walked down to the beach, where we captured it on video and Sian took the photos. It really was a perfect proposal. Nikita looked beautiful in her white dress, which she was told to wear at the break of dawn, she had no idea why. Aadil got down on one knee and asked Nikita to marry him, she said YES! There were hugs, kisses and giggles ~ a wonderful celebration of love.

Aadil and Nikita sunrise beach proposal was magical, we wish them all the best for a happy future together.

May your journey be filled with happiness.

P.S Aadil wanted us to use her cute nick of Boo boo in the setup. Just to note as you might notice it in the picture!

On the 9^th November 2019, Garen and Emmie got engaged!

We were thrilled to be part of this couple’s very special day! Garen had wonderful ideas and we just helped orchestrate them. We chatted about what they love best and Emmie loves flowers and the outdoors. His chosen venue was Kirstenbosch gardens. The gardens are beautiful this time of year, as it is springtime!

Garen left that morning with the excuse he was playing golf all day. He got dressed and left with his golf clubs in hand. Emmie was to enjoy a day out with her cousin.

The overall theme for the day was “ random acts of kindness” as this is something very important to Emmie. Garen recruited a few friends and family to help with the plans, as it was a morning filled with activities. The girls started off by getting ‘free’ bagels in Bree Street. After this, they entered the gardens and we handed over king Proteas as the next act of kindness. The girls continued on their walk across the lawn area to the picnic setup.

On their way, Emmie spotted the setup and “marry me” sign. She quickly started to duck and dive out the way as she was so worried about not disturbing a special moment, little did she know it was all for her.

Finally, she saw Garen, waiting patiently for his bride-to-be. He went down on one knee and asked that important question… “Will you marry me?” She said YES! They popped the bubbly and celebrated a very exciting moment! Her brother was their photographer for the day, thanks for sharing these photos with us.

Garen and Emmie garden proposal was perfect! We wish this wonderful couple a lifetime of happiness. Enjoy all your future adventures!

On the 2nd September 2019, Truman asked the love of his life to marry him, she said yes!

Truman wanted to pop the question on the famous Boulders Beach in Simons Town. Tiffany is a lover of animals, especially penguins. She has always wanted to visit Cape Town and see these fascinating creatures in person. As Boulders Beach is one of the most popular tourist destinations we had to play around with this idea so they could get some privacy. We used the beach area to hang up a ‘marry me’ sign. There were lots of personal details added which we will mention later.

They live in San Francisco and came to explore Cape Town while on holiday. They have been together for 2,5 years and counting. They meet at work and have been in love ever since. Her favourite song is Africa by Toto thus he wanted their proposal story to include a part of “Africa”.

On the day we found a quiet beach spot to place our sign. We had to include leopard print for the animal theme. He also asked that we print out pictures of their cat and new puppy. These pictures we placed on sticks to use as props. To complete the African vibe we used proteas and fynbos for flowers. We also brought in a stuffed toy giraffe and zebra to give to their puppy on their return. We had so much fun thinking of exciting ways to incorporate this wonderful African theme.

When they arrived, they first went to the viewing deck to see the penguins. Then finally made it to the beach where a penguin came to say hello on arrival. We met them at the entrance, pretending to be their ‘tour guide’. We handed over binoculars for her to see the “penguins”. Truman pointed in the direction of where to look and soon saw the “marry me” sign. She was so surprised, he got on his knee and popped the question!!

What a magical day at Boulders Beach. Lesley captured their big day on film and took them exploring to find more penguins to take photos with.

Truman and Tiffany Boulders beach proposal was so much fun! Congratulations on their engagement.

Kuven lives in Cape Town and his girlfriend, Keressa lives in Johannesburg. Keressa decided to surprise Kuven by coming down to Cape Town for the weekend however he found out she was coming so he decided to spring a surprise on her as well. She flew down on Friday and he pretended that he was surprised to see her!

He told Keressa that he had a work function to attend on Saturday so the couple made their way to Silvermist Mountain Lodge in Constantia. Our talented photographer, Kathryn hid in the bush and made sure she was ready and waiting so that she could capture the special moment. As the couple made their way towards the proposal, excitement started to grow for us. They walked in a forest down a pathway that was covered in pink and white rose petals. Beautiful bunting was hung on the railing to lead the way and finally, the couple emerged from the bushes and saw a lookout deck among the forest that had the most incredible views. Kuven got down on one knee and he asked his best friend to spend the rest of her life with him. SHE SAID YES!

The couple popped a bottle of champagne, enjoyed some chocolates and took in this beautiful and special moment. They then went on a couple’s photo-shoot and afterwards they enjoyed the rest of their champagne.

The newly engaged couple enjoyed a memorable dinner at sunset with their close friends and family at The Eatery which is located on the Silvermist Estate.

Keressa’s beautiful engagement ring is beautiful. Good job Kuven!

We wish Kuven and Keressa all the best with their upcoming wedding and with their future. Kuven and Keressa forest proposal, a very happy occasion indeed 🙂

Abass came to us asking to plan the “most romantic proposal ever”. He wanted to spoil her and show how much he cares!! They had only been together a short while but as he says… “when you meet ‘the one’ time is really not an issue”. He says soon after they met, they have been inseparable. It’s a very sweet story <3

Abass wanted a venue that was not affected by weather, Beau Constantia was the chosen location. They have a stunning room which we transformed into a romantic space for the marriage proposal. We used lots and lots of red roses as this is her favourite flower. We ordered hundreds of rose petals which covered the floor. We even created a rose petal heart at the entrance <3 The room overlooks the Constantia Valley, we can not get enough of this view, it’s breathtaking.

On their arrival, Jilda the photographer was hiding to capture their special moment. They walked into the room with their favourite song playing: Kevin Garett – Little bit if you. Photos were hung up on the wall to remember happy memories. We used red roses and penny gum as flower deco. The room looked like a sea of red roses…

Abass got on one knee as they entered, he asked that important question, she said YES!! Fairuz was laughing and emotional, a very happy moment indeed. They had some photo’s taken on the wine farm and after this enjoyed a very romantic dinner by Chef’s warehouse.

Abass and Fairuz romantic marriage proposal was beautiful. We could see they are so in love, and can’t wait to spend the rest of their lives together! We wish them all the happiness in the world.

They are both from Johannesburg and came down to the Cape for a holiday (and to pop the question). They met through his cousin and became friends. They started chatting and it soon turned into a long distance relationship. About 3 years ago Namita moved to Johannesburg to be with Nishkar. And their story began here…

Nishkar got in touch with us as he wanted the most romantic proposal for the girl of his dreams. He wanted to propose on Table Mountain. He loved the idea of being high above the clouds and having Cape Town as the backdrop. Beautiful views were important to him.

We asked Nishkar what his perfect proposal was: “For me the perfect proposal is seeing her smiling at me while I ask her the big question, and for her to say YES”

Nishkar’s other request was the proposal must be captured on film. We asked Lesley to follow them up in the cable car. Namita had no clue that there was a sneaky photographer on their tail. They enjoyed the walk around Table Mountain, as there are lots of paths when you reach the top. Nishkar finally found his perfect spot and asked Namita to marry him, she said YES, with a smile from cheek to cheek.

We wish them both a very happy future and we hope they enjoyed their trip to the Cape. Nishkar and Namita Table Mountain Marriage Proposal was a very special occasion.

It was the most beautiful day in Cape Town, a glorious winter’s day! Ruhan called us to help him assist with the big event as they are from out of town and wanted only the best for Jenine! His first thoughts were going up Table Mountain and doing the proposal up there, which is a great idea as it one of the most prominent landmarks in Cape Town.

We planned his proposal around this idea but about a week before the day we heard from them it was closed, they were doing their annual maintenance on the cable cars. We called Ruhan to discuss his options and we decided the beach (looking at Table Mountain) was the best idea! In the end all he wanted was something special that she would remember for the rest of her life.

On the day, we set-up a picnic for two on Clifton beach, as mentioned it was the most beautiful day in Cape town, blue skies and sunshine! They were blessed with great weather that whole weekend. Ruhan asked if we could make a sign (Jenine trou met my) to the picnic as she would be VERY surprised walking across that! We made it in her favorite colour blue and used ribbons & bunting flags for decoration.

They arrived at the beach, walked along and the photographer, Jilda, was capturing their every move. They finally reached the rocks and he popped the question! A very surprised Jenine said YES! A lovely young couple who were very excited to spend the rest of their lives together. That afternoon they enjoyed the delicious picnic food, popped the bubbly and celebrated this happy occasion. A perfect beach proposal… 🙂

We wish them all the best for their future together and happy wedding planning!
