Taylor & Nelly’s Sutro Baths Proposal: A Sunset to Remember

Some proposals are a total surprise, and some are expected to a degree, but all are absolutely magical. Taylor and Nelly had been together for four years and had already started planning their wedding, so she knew a proposal was coming — it was just a matter of when and where. And for someone who loves the ocean and a sunset view, Taylor had to make sure the moment was perfect.

Originally, we were going to make it happen on a beach, but with the unpredictable logistics of pulling off a planned surprise, Taylor made a last-minute switch to Sutro Baths. With just a day’s notice, we put the gears into motion for all the pieces to fall into place. And honestly, it couldn’t have been better.

As the sun dipped toward the horizon, casting golden light over the water, Taylor led Nelly to the edge of the old ruins. With the waves crashing below and the sky gradually turning from blue to orange, he dropped to one knee. Her reaction was the kind of emotion that made us feel lucky just to witness it. Actually, not just us… there was a small crowd who silently but excitedly waited for her to say yes, and then erupted into cheers!

In that moment, the two of them just held onto each other, soaking it in against one of San Francisco’s most breathtaking backdrops.

Afterward, we wandered around the cliffs, capturing their post-proposal glow as the sun settled beneath the waves. This was a spontaneous change of plans that led to an unforgettable evening, a reminder that sometimes, the best moments happen when you go with the flow. Congrats Taylor and Nelly, and we wish you many more ocean sunsets together!
