Our client, Michael, and his girlfriend, Samantha, have been together for five years, so he wanted to do something really special for Samantha’s proposal! Michael really wanted to get engaged at night time, around dinner, so they’d be dressed up, looking their best for the photos. They were staying at The Arrabelle at Vail Square, so I had the perfect idea for the location. The ice skating rink right outside! I shared the idea with Michael, along with two other ideas, and Michael was really excited about the ice skating rink!
I love how it turned out! As a proposal planner, I always consider how the setup will look with my client kneeling in front of it. Initially I was afraid the staircase would look too boring, so we covered it entirely with candles, and added beautiful floral arrangements and candelabras on each side. It looked so romantic! We also had a rose petal and candle trail leading from the elevator to the proposal. I initially wanted to scratch that, but the florist refused, and she was right! It was the perfect touch!
