The Perfect Surprise Proposal

I have such a great way to start the week today, a gorgeous surprise proposal, designed by Sarah of Brilliant Event Planning.  Christian flew all the way from Mexico to New York to create the perfect proposal for his lovely girlfriend Jilma.

Christian lured Jilma to Ramscale Studios, where inside waited an accoustic guitar and Spanish-speaking vocalist performing “Quieres Casar Conmigo” (Will You Marry Me) by Carlos Baute, and a rustic, natural archway with branches and Spanish moss – which was meant to be the backdrop for Christian’s proposal, except he jumped the gun and proposed before he got there!

I adore this sequence of images that Jennifer captured, so joyous and exciting.

After Jilma’s exuberant “YES” they enjoyed a private dinner al fresco and called friends & family to share the news.
