Benefits of Proposing in Public:

Expert advice

We do a huge number of proposals every year. There is no doubt that a public proposal is not for everyone. The intimacy offered by private venues allows you, in our opinion, to really savor the moment by living it only with two (or more if you want to bring your entourage), without embarrassment or risks around.
