Romantic Marriage Proposal Ideas

A surprise marriage proposal in breathtaking scenery. Surveys consistently reveal that most women desire a surprise proposal or at least a partial surprise. She might sense it’s on the horizon, but not know the exact moment, making it perfect to win her heart.

It is crucial to keep it simple. We may need to change the location at the last minute due to weather conditions.

A proposal can take place while sightseeing, hiking, or during a return trip from the Jungfraujoch.

Keep it simple


We will connect via WhatsApp. I will share contact numbers 12 hours before the event. I’m a stranger to your girlfriend. Just another tourist snapping photos. I'll remain inconspicuous until it’s time for your proposal.


Unfortunately, I have limited control over the circumstances. You might be positioned incorrectly, or the background might lack appeal. Shadows from the sun might fall on her face, or people could be walking by.


Feel free to ask me to take a picture of you both with your phone, or I can offer to snap a photo with your camera.

A Good Position


This is an ideal setup for proposing to your girlfriend. Position yourselves with your backs to the camera on a tripod.


To make it natural, point out something in the distance for her to look at. While she is turned away, you can go down on one knee. When she turns back around, she’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Pop the question during a photo shoot


The photo shoot can be a wonderful birthday gift or a special way to celebrate an anniversary. It's also a thoughtful present for your parents.


I am introduced to your partner and can guide you to the location. I have time to set up my equipment and create a video. I will direct you for the sunshine and position you for the best backdrop.
