The Proposal Concept:
“She loves roses … lots of roses! It must be airy and light and the perfect shade of pink … not too pink, actually in between light pink and peach with hints of ivory, gold, and rose gold. Her favorite song is ‘James Dean & Audrey Hepburn’ from Sleeping with the Sirens. And we can’t forget the rum; she loves rum …” said Henry.
Henry was intent on a Shangri-La Paris rooftop proposal to ensure the most intimate and dazzling views of the Eiffel Tower.
The couple‘s adventure kicked-off with a romantic horse and carriage ride around Paris.
Our planning team jumped into action, transforming the fabulous Shangri-La’s Krug Champagne terrace into a magical pastel garden lit by standing candelabras and hurricane candles. The dining table was simply custom-made for lovers … sporting a luscious cascading runner of roses.
We carried over the romantic feel into their luxury suite, adorning the bed with heart-shaped floral arrangements, balloons, and rose petals.
Henry blindfolded Ella before leading her to the proposal setting, where a guitarist played her favorite song … the lyrics reflecting his feeling at the moment:
… how the hell did you ever pick me. Honestly. Cause I could sing you a song, but I don’t think words can express your beauty …
Henry removed her blindfold and dropped to his knee to ask Ella to marry him … with the Eiffel Tower so close, you could almost touch it.
Hugs, kisses, and love-filled smiles filled the air. Their connection was just magical!
They closed the evening with a decadent private dinner overlooking the Eiffel Tower sparkling at a distance against a vivid blue sky … three courses with lots of rum and coke :-).
Congratulations, Henry & Ella!
