As Saint Louis, MO’s top photographer and event videographer, The Film Perspective is prepared to document every moment, from the proposal to the big day itself. Before you ask your loved one to say “yes,” read their tips.

Plan the Perfect Proposal With These 5 Tips From Saint Louis’s Top Photographer

1. Choose a Sentimental Location

Choose a location that has deep meaning for that special someone, whether it’s the place you first met or had your first date. Consider sentimental moments in your relationship, and bring them back to life with a breathtaking proposal directly on-site. 

2. Invite Friends & Family

Your loved one will already be surprised and excited, so make the moment more magical by inviting friends and family to bask in the joy afterward. The moment will be even better if there are more special people to share it with.

3. Incorporate a Talent or Hobby

Whether you’re a guitar maestro, know how to salsa, or paint like a professional, incorporate your talent into the proposal itself. For instance, you can serenade them or present them with a unique painting of the two of you. 

4. Use Meaningful Elements

Incorporate elements that hold special meaning to your loved one. If they enjoy the movies, set up a private viewing of video footage you have collected over the years, showing clips of your journey as a couple. Make the ending extra special by having the question written out on the screen. 

5. Capture the Moment

Hire a photographer or event videographer to secretly snap or film this once-in-a-lifetime moment. When the proposal is secretly documented, you’ll capture real reactions and lifelong memories that can be passed on from generation to generation. 

As Rochester’s finest team of photographers, The Film Perspective will take photos of the proposal so those memories are never forgotten. And on the big day, the staff will create wedding videos using state-of-the-art videography, capturing the smiles, tears, and laughter that accompany every moment.
