Surprise Proposal + Tips for Popping the Question

Surprise Proposal + Tips for Popping the Question

Awww, this surprise proposal just tugs at your heart. It's just so sweet! You see, Alec planned a super romantic picnic proposal for his girlfriend, Sara, at Nashville's Cheekwood Botanical Gardens. Sara was under the impression that she was attending a friend's photography showing in the gallery. And it wasn't until she saw the picnic basket and then watch Alec drop to one knee that she figured it out. Friends and family were cheering from the balcony and the highly emotional moment is written all over Sara's face. We're so excited to share this sweet surprise wedding proposal from Frozen Exposure Photography and Cinematography with y'all today; plus, offer a few tips just in case you're inspired to do some surprising of your own! Congrats to Alec and Sara! Enjoy.

Surprise Wedding Proposal Tips

  1. If you're wanting a public proposal, be reasonably sure that the answer is going to be "YES!" {You'll know in your heart of hearts.}
  2. Know whether your girlfriend is an introvert {intimate surprise} or an extrovert {public surprise}. A public surprise proposal might feel a little uncomfortable to an introvert.
  3. Choose a meaningful surprise proposal location; first date, first kiss, where you met ...
  4. Oh, and be sure to hire a fab photographer {like this one!} to document the day!
