Rooftop Proposals and Iconic London Views, Whatever the Weather
The beginning of 2026 has been all about London views, rooftops, and iconic backdrops, even in the colder, wetter months. One thing we always guide our clients on is being honest about the experience: will your partner be happy in coats, perhaps with umbrellas, or is it important to have a stunning view with warmth, shelter, and a wet-weather plan?
This is where experience really matters.
With our love for discovering beautiful new venues, alongside working with our trusted long-standing partners, we always strive to create proposals that feel unique, thoughtful, and completely tailored to each couple’s dream, whatever the forecast.
A Private Rooftop Proposal Overlooking Trafalgar Square
In early December, we planned a quiet and intimate rooftop proposal for a well-known footballer at The Trafalgar St. James.
She believed they were heading for breakfast in the hotel restaurant but instead was guided into a private dining room with panoramic views over Trafalgar Square. It was their first time in London, and the sense of surprise and intimacy made the moment incredibly special.
A Thames River Proposal with Iconic London Views
For James, we curated a romantic Thames river proposal with our wonderful partners Thames Limo. He wanted his partner to experience London’s historic skyline while staying warm and dry. A luxury Venetian-style water taxi, glass roof, and private views of the capital’s most famous landmarks created an unforgettable and effortlessly elegant proposal.
A Last-Minute Proposal with Tower Bridge as the Backdrop
Ahmed came to us with just two days’ notice. His partner was about to leave for a long trip abroad, and he wanted to propose before she left. Under the disguise of heading out for dinner along the South Bank, he dropped to one knee with Tower Bridge glowing behind them. The surprise on her face said everything.
A Rooftop Proposal at Cheval Three Quays, Weatherproofed Perfection
For Bela and Daniel, it simply had to be a rooftop proposal overlooking Tower Bridge. The Cheval Three Quays Penthouse was the only view she wanted. The weather tested us, and the heavens truly opened, but thanks to careful planning and flexibility, the proposal moved indoors seamlessly. When the rain eased, we captured their engagement photos on the terrace, with breathtaking views of the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, The Shard and the London Eye.
Whatever the Weather, Whatever the Dream
London doesn’t always give us blue skies but it does give us magic. With the right planning, experience, and trusted partners, your proposal will always feel exceptional.
So whatever the weather, and whatever your vision, we’re here to look after every detail and create a proposal that feels truly unforgettable.
Get in touch today we have some wonderful ideas for Valentine’s Day and beautiful ways to celebrate love, in every season.
With heartfelt thanks, as always, to my incredible team who help bring these moments to life and create memories that last forever. To my wonderful stylists Jo, Clare, Fairy, Erwin and Iva and to the talented photographers and videographers who so beautifully capture each story: Paul (@pgracephoto), Lina & Tom (@linaandtom), AMD studio @amd.foto.video. I’m endlessly grateful to work alongside such creative and trusted partners.
