How To Plan and Hire A Photographer For A Surprise Proposal
Is there anything more fun and more stressful than planning the perfect proposal? You want to create an unforgettable experience for your significant other. One of the best ways to create an amazing experience is to secretly hire a photographer for your surprise proposal. Then, you can have a beautiful photoshoot that really shows your happiness. We’re sharing our secrets, so you can know how to plan the ultimate surprise proposal.
Planning a Surprise Proposal by Season
Each season has its own benefits to offer, so you can pick the season that works best for you.
SPRING
Springtime in Lake Tahoe is the perfect weather to create a full outdoor surprise proposal. With the help of Wild Sage Picnic Co or The Hytch., you can set up a fully designed picnic, complete with food, drink, and decor! Their proposal package includes a 2-hour picnic with a table, background arch, decor, food and drink, and all dining items. They even set up and break down the picnic, so you don’t have to worry about a single thing. This gives the two of you a great reason to go on a picnic date, and your partner is sure to be surprised!
SUMMER
When planning a summer surprise proposal, consider a beach setting. The beaches on Lake Tahoe are beautiful in the summer, and there are a few spots we can use. The sunsets on the lake in the summer are stunning! Another beautiful spot in the summer is Sand Harbor. The unique rock formations dotting the lakeshore give you a picture-perfect backdrop. To make this special, and to keep your spouse from finding out about the surprise, suggest a romantic dinner after sunset! Let them know you have dinner reservations, but you want to walk the beach before going to dinner. This way, you both can get dressed up without ruining the surprise.
FALL
For fall proposals, we love fall hikes. The incredible and ever-changing colors make for a memorable proposal. There are many great hiking areas, and we can help you pick the best ones. The vistas and views overlooking Lake Tahoe are one of a kind. If you are a couple who loves a little adventure, you can hike one of our favorite trails. We will be waiting at the top for the two of you, ready to capture the moment!
WINTER
Winter in Lake Tahoe is one of the best seasons to propose. There are countless places to propose. From ice skating rinks to your favorite ski lodge, we can help you find the best spot.
