Planning the most nervous five minutes of your life

Why a proposal planner?

A proposal lasts five minutes and you only get one. Most of the work happens before it: finding a place that's beautiful but not crowded, building a setup in secret, getting you both there at the right minute and having someone ready with a camera. Doing all that from abroad, without your partner noticing, is a lot. That's the part we take off your hands.

How we work

Your story first

Before we suggest anything, we ask about the two of you. A shy partner who would hate an audience gets a quiet garden at sunrise; someone who loves a big moment might get a rose heart on the beach at sunset. The best proposals feel like the couple, not like a template.

Secrecy is part of the job

We only use the contact details you give us, never mention the proposal anywhere your partner could see it, and help you with a believable reason to be at the right place at the right time.

Honest about places

Some of Lisbon's most famous spots are packed all day, and some don't allow decoration or professional photography without permission. We tell you straight away what's possible, what needs permission and what's simply too crowded.

Ready for the weather

Every plan has a backup. If the forecast turns, we move to a covered spot, a different time or another day of your trip.

We leave places as we found them

Every petal and candle goes home with us. Many of the places we use are parks, beaches and neighbourhoods where people live, and we'd like to keep being welcome there.
