A Surprise Proposal on Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk

When you think of a surprise proposal, what comes to mind? A quiet, intimate moment? Maybe a fancy dinner in a dimly lit restaurant? Or the classic “will you marry me?” in front of a crowd of people? Well, this one was a little different—and by different, I mean incredible.

Let me set the scene for you: It was a beautiful day on the Riverwalk in Fort Lauderdale with the stunning Intracoastal as a backdrop and modern buildings lining the scene. (Because nothing says “I love you” like a couple of million-dollar condos, right?).

But wait—it gets better.

As if the stunning Fort Lauderdale skyline and water weren’t enough, Jason decided to go all in and bring in a massive surprise: A wall of flowers. I’m not talking about a tiny bouquet here. This was a full-on floral display that could probably rival the Rose Bowl Parade, minus the floats. 

As they approached little did she know, her entire world was about to be transformed into an Instagram-worthy moment. You could almost hear the collective “Awwww” of every single person nearby as he knelt down and asked the question.

And just like that, she said yes! 

But here’s the kicker…

It wasn’t just the proposal that made this moment special—it was the way it was captured. You see, moments like these don’t happen every day, and you absolutely want them documented. From the intimate exchange of vows to her honest reaction, capturing these authentic moments is what photographers do best. Whether you’re planning a surprise proposal, a wedding, or just want to document your love story, I’m here to help you tell it in the most beautiful way possible.

So, if you’re planning to pop the question—or if you’re just really into flowers, the Intracoastal, and high-rise buildings—let’s chat. Book a session with me, and let’s make your unforgettable moments truly unforgettable. You might even get a wall of flowers out of it. Just saying.
