Oscar’s story was that they were going to head up to NorCal for his birthday weekend… but in reality, he had more special plans in mind — much more special! On a nice calm evening, he brought his girlfriend Danielle to the Pacific cliffs with a beautiful (if slightly foggy) view of the Golden Gate Bridge, and took out a shiny surprise out of his pocket. Danielle’s reaction was one of the most precious we’ve ever had the joy to witness [ read more … ]

Charles had the perfect spot picked out for his proposal to his girlfriend Vivian: a spot beside the famed Pacific Coast Highway, up on a cliff overlooking the ocean near Monterey. And just to make extra sure this was the spot, he actually snuck away one day to visit with his dad and dog for a closer look! Presumably, they both approved 😛 [ read more … ]

If I had to choose between popping the question under sunny weather on a crowded beach vs foggy weather with no one around, I’d pick the latter every time. (Well, ideally just one time, but you get the idea…) Matt & Olivia were in town for the Fourth of July, which has historically been the busiest, most crowded day in years past, and forecasts predicted even more sightseers this year. But luckily, the skies were just barely foggy enough to keep people away but not so much as to hinder the beautiful view at this beachy spot, giving Matt the stage for a perfectly quiet Golden Gate Bridge surprise proposal.

Just a few weeks before moving to San Francisco from the east coast, Max & Kara flew in for a visit over the long Fourth of July weekend. Little did she know that he had a Golden Gate Bridge surprise engagement all planned out for her, complete with champagne on the beach… just in time to make San Francisco their special place before their move! Kara was so excited she could hardly contain her jubilation, and Max was just relieved to have the weight of the surprise and anticipation finally off his shoulders, haha. Congrats to the happy couple, and check out a few photos below!

Jayme is very much a planner — in fact, we were in touch more than a month before her proposal to talk about locations and ideas, and after deciding on the ideal spot, she even scouted it out just to make sure it was the perfect place. On the big day, she and her girlfriend Nicole arrived exactly on time, neatly dressed, and walked over to the spot that will now be a special one to them forever. [ read more … ]
