The 10 Most Unique Hotel Proposal Packages Around the World

Planning how you will pop the big question can be stressful, but if you do it in an unexpected, magical location then you’re already one step ahead in wowing your significant other. Besides the ring and the words you choose to share with your loved one, selecting the location of your proposal is an essential step in the process. 

When planning a proposal within a hotel or unique property, Janette Roche—Reservations Supervisor at Adare Manor in Ireland (she plans over one hundred proposals a year)—emphasizes the importance of communicating every single detail to the hotel's concierge staff. “Usually our guests are a little nervous at the inquiry stage since proposing is a little secret project, so we find they love the reassurance from our team that they are in very good hands, and that our colleagues have assisted in these occasions with care and pride numerous times,” Roche told us. 

Hotels are increasingly adding new proposal packages to their portfolios with a growing demand for specific interests from foodies to photo-op lovers. Roche recommends asking the properties what they can offer, as there is typically a wide variety of options making it hard to choose on your own.

“We offer a number of packaged inspirations for our proposal menu as a starting point, all of which can be further amended to suit the specific preferences of the guest,“ Roche says. “Proposals can be built-up moments—a once-in-a-lifetime moment for most—and it alleviates any pressure to telephone the concierge and have the efforts conveyed on our guest's behalf.”

Whether it’s a simple coastal beachside picnic or a dreamy African safari experience, what truly matters is your shared love and enjoying these memories as you enter a new chapter in your lives together.
