#1 Paris
Proposal Planner

We know Paris, and we know engagements!

Our comprehensive approach to bringing proposals to life makes Kiss Me in Paris stand out.

We focus on creating personalized engagements that are authentic and memorable; they typically contain a part of you, a part of your partner, and a part of the love story you share.

We create experiences. A dream proposal neither starts when you drop to your knee nor ends when your sweetheart says, “Yes.” Instead, think of the experience as a tease, a flirt, a slow dance,… with little surprises building on each other and culminating in an intimate moment she’ll cherish forever.

Our sumptuous proposal setups are widely copied but never really duplicated. Why, you may ask. We want to think it’s because we are passionate, understand our clients’ visions, and appreciate that every love story is unique. We aim to awaken the senses creatively. With a keen eye for detail, we’ll ensure that every aspect of your marriage proposal is well thought out and that things run smoothly.

Paris proposals, like most events, never quite go as planned. Unexpected issues, such as a sick vendor, rain, flight delays,…, may arise. We have the Rolodex and understanding to adapt on short notice.

Think of us as your partner! You’ll gain access to priceless know-how we’ve accumulated over the years. Expect a personalized and memorable experience with unique and inventive ideas tailored to your personalities and preferences. We respect your privacy and maintain discretion throughout the planning process; your proposal remains a surprise with Kiss Me in Paris.

Paris is custom-made for lovers. Cruise along the Seine River at night, steal a kiss under the sparkling Eiffel Tower, stroll the verdant Luxembourg Gardens, and get lost in the winding cobblestone streets of Montmartre.

We may be a tad biased, but Paris is the most romantic city we know to get engaged. Expect fantastic locations for indoor and outdoor proposals, Michelin-star restaurants, uber-chic Palace hotels, and experienced English-speaking vendors.

Suppose it’s just about getting engaged in the City of Love. In that case, you only need a date, a romantic location, a diamond ring, and perhaps a local Paris photographer to document the intimate moment.

However, since you’re reading this page, chances are you’re thinking of creating something utterly special for your loved one. You want to surprise your partner with a fun-filled day with many beautiful mini-experiences that crescendo into an unforgettable marriage proposal.

In that case, it’s about chivalry, effort, and forethought as you personalize a unique Paris proposal concept that delights your sweetie’s five senses and is personally meaningful.

You may want to consider a palace hotel rooftop, Seine River yacht, French chateau, or another private spot where you control every element. It is also a fantastic idea to embellish the actual proposal setting with sumptuous flowers, candles, personal details, fireworks fountains, and much more. Add a master musician to play your soulmate’s favorite song.

Of course, you’ll want to capture this extraordinary moment with professional Paris photography and video. There is much more you can do, but you get the point.

The way we understand cliche is that it’s something that has lost its appeal due to overuse. The truth is that Paris is and will always be special. No other place on the planet even comes close.

Sure, the City of Love is not for everyone and does not even pretend to be. Still, thanks to its iconic locations to propose, uber-romantic hotels and restaurants, and experienced English-speaking vendors, it’s hard to conceive of a more romantic city.

According to The Knot, 33% of marriage proposals take place on a planned vacation getaway.

We continue to see a steady rise in Parisian proposals and feel well-positioned to comment on the current trends.

• Most requests are still for outdoor proposals in plain public view. However, demand for private rooftops is on the rise.
• Eiffel Tower proposal settings are always popular. Still, we’re seeing increased demand for unique locations that ‘say’ Paris, such as quiet gardens, distinctive bridges, Seine River yachts, and fabulous French castles…
• Personalized and creative proposal ideas are hot, such as scavenger hunts that keep your partner guessing. The cookie-cutter approach is out.
• People spend more money on their engagements, including renting luxury venues, private dining for two, master musicians, sumptuous flowers, and a vintage Rolls-Royce…

There are no rules that say you cannot propose on the capital’s most treasured landmark: the Eiffel Tower.

However, it’s undoubtedly not recommended since many curious bystanders will surround you. Getting engaged on a wrought-iron tower in plain public view does not even sound romantic. There’s no real chance for personalization (unless you are Tom Cruise, perhaps), so forget about impressive photos.

The entire idea of an Eiffel Tower proposal is to actually see the iconic 324 meters-tall Iron Lady in your pictures, right?

We suggest exploring the monument with your fiancée after she says “yes” and capturing some fun selfies 108 stories off the ground.

Paris is blessed with the most beautiful and romantic publicly accessible places to propose:

• luscious parks (Luxembourg Gardens, Tuileries Garden, and Parc Monceau);
• gorgeous squares (Place des Vosges, Place Dauphine);
• iconic locations around the Eiffel Tower (Trocadero, Champs de Mars, and Avenue de Camoëns)
• distinctive bridges (Bir-Hakim, Pont des Arts, and Alexander III); and
• off-the-beaten-path spots (Wall of Love, Montmartre, Shakespeare Library, …).

Alternatively, invest in a private proposal location, such as a commercial or residential rooftop, a Palace Hotel terrace, a historic salon, a private Seine River cruise, or a French chateau.

This is a loaded question. It depends on your proposal budget, the complexity of your concept and design, the number of moving parts and Parisian vendors, and a host of other factors. We recommend you schedule a short complimentary consultation to see where you stand and whether investing in a Paris proposal planner makes sense.

Presumably, the intent of this question is similar to, “Where do you propose in Paris in cold weather?”

It’s possible to propose in Paris year-round. Sure, it can get nippy and occasionally freezing during the cool season, which spans from mid-November through early March.

Then again, cold temperatures may keep unwanted crowds at bay and are not a massive obstacle to pulling off a memorable marriage proposal. Heavy rainfall, however, is a challenge—notably for musicians with string instruments and visual artists (photographers and filmmakers).

Private Parisian hotel rooftops and terraces are not necessarily open year-round. Nonetheless, when you book a suite with a private balcony, it is typically straightforward to request a patio heater. Plus, since you are defacto privatizing the space, you have better timeline flexibility to wait out brief rain showers.

In summary, when it’s cold or it rains, private locations offer greater flexibility than their public counterparts. Our favorite hotels for Paris proposals include the Peninsula, Shangri La Paris, Marignan, and the Four Seasons Gorge V.

There are no hard rules, and it depends on your personality, style, and budget. With that said, people often think a marriage proposal must be over the top to be memorable. We find that it needs to be well-thought-out, display chivalry and effort, and consider your partner first.

For example, does your sweetheart like the outdoors and is passionate about all things French? Then how about a dreamy picnic in a finely manicured Parisian garden, complete with baguette, cheese, and chilled Champagne?

Suppose you find it challenging to come up with creative proposal ideas. In that case, we have almost limitless concepts just waiting for you.

But first, we must understand your love story. Only then can we present ideas that feel natural and make you and your families proud.

We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, PayPal, and wire transfers. When you elect to pay the balance of your proposal package in cash, it is due on the day of your engagement.

Booking with us is fast, simple, and secure.

We understand that life can sometimes get in the way … Paris is a busy city, and you’re on vacation.

That said, a proposal can have many moving parts, and arriving late could affect multiple elements. Not being on time is almost not an option when you intend to propose in a public spot. Also, remember that vendors may already have other commitments after your scheduled proposal.

So, try to be on time, and let us know as soon as possible if you are experiencing any delays.

It’s sometimes just impossible to keep your appointment despite the best intentions.

We’ve seen it all, from airport disruptions and canceled flights to visa issues, strikes, health, broken relationships, job conflicts, and many other challenges.

That said, much of the effort is rendered well ahead of the proposal when it comes to proposal planning. Detailed plans are made, venues are secured, and vendors are booked. Therefore your initial retainer or any monies paid are strictly non-refundable.

We are happy to work with you to find an alternative date. Just note that rescheduling will depend on the availability of places and people.

It depends on the proposal’s scope, the number of vendors, and other factors. The more elaborate and the more moving parts, the sooner you should start planning.

Also, consider the time of the year. The best people and places to propose book out quickly during the peak season (spring, summer, and Christmas through New Year).

We recommend hiring your Paris proposal planner as soon as possible. Still, it should be music to your ears that we have the Rolodex and experience to pull off awe-inspiring engagements on short notice.

Hmmm… let’s check in with a former girlfriend … now, “fiancée.”

“Unimaginable is the word I would use to summarize my dream proposal in Paris. Every detail was so well thought-out and personalized. Yet, the grandeur was not lost in any way. I felt like royalty and was so excited to marry this incredible man. Yes, unimaginable because I could not have conceived or even asked for a more romantic and thoughtful proposal. Kiss Me in Paris made it possible for me to say “Yes” in the beautiful city to the love of my life in the most memorable way. I will forever be grateful to Kiss Me in Paris for creating this memorable experience.”

Your partner will be just over the moon that you took the time to get the professional help you needed to plan an incredible proposal.

In Paris, anything can happen. The weather tends to be unpredictable. Hey, you cannot trust the forecast. In other words, do not worry about unreliable predictions unless they’ve been updated within 6-8 hours from the scheduled starting time of your proposal.

We keep an eye on weather conditions for you. We analyze the situation and recommend going ahead with the proposal or rescheduling for an earlier or later time.

If we absolutely need to reschedule, we will communicate with all the vendors in real time. That is another benefit of working with an influential and well-connected Paris proposal planner.

For our Proposal Idea Generation Service, you can conveniently pay online with any major credit card.
Drop us a line for more involved planning services, such as Full Service Planning. We will confirm the availability of your desired date and send you a contract and payment link. A non-refundable planning fee and a security deposit of 50% of your overall package fee reserve your preferred date and starting time.

We accept all major credit/debit cards.

You can keep all perishable items, such as flowers, Champagne, macarons, fireworks fountains, etc. However, anything non-perishable, such as tables, chairs, candles, lighting, Champagne crystal flutes, macaron or cake stands, etc., remains our property and will be retrieved after your event. If you are unsure, please ask us before ordering.

Our standard rental agreement specifies a specific date (11:59 PM) and location for insurance purposes and, importantly, logistical planning (including vans, staff, and unique props). That said, at a surcharge, we are happy to schedule the pick-up of any non-perishable items for the next day or later.
