Paris, the city of love par excellence, conceals hidden treasures perfect for an intimate marriage proposal. The Marais district, with its secret gardens and historic courtyards, offers ideal romantic settings for this unique moment. As experts in wedding proposal organization in Paris, we reveal our favorite spots to create your magical moment.
1. The most beautiful secret gardens in the Marais
• Le Jardin des Archives Nationales Un véritable havre de paix historique, accessible gratuitement et moins fréquenté que les grands jardins parisiens. Ses allées bordées de roses et ses bancs en pierre offrent un cadre romantique parfait.
• Le Jardin de l'Hôtel de Sully Une pépite architecturale du XVIIe siècle, avec ses parterres à la française et ses orangers.
• Le Square Georges Cain Un petit jardin intimiste orné de sculptures antiques et de végétation luxuriante, idéal pour une demande en mariage au coucher du soleil.
