Marriage Proposal on a boat in Italian Riviera
If you are looking for a romantic and unforgettable way to propose to your significant other in Italy, a marriage proposal on a boat on the Italian Riviera is hard to beat.
The gorgeous coastline and crystal-clear waters of the Italian Riviera provide the most stunning backdrop for a proposal that your partner will never forget. It’s no surprise that the Italian Riviera is right up there at the top of the list of the best places to propose in Italy.
A Dreamy Marriage Proposal on a Boat in Italian Riviera
Cinque Terre and beyond
Located in the region of Liguria, the Italian Riviera boasts some of the most breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. The coastline is dotted with charming fishing villages, stunning beaches, and crystal-clear waters. Cinque Terre is one of the most popular destinations along the Italian Riviera, and for good reason, but there are plenty of other places to explore along the coast.
A romantic proposal in Portovenere
When Wayne contacted us to help him capture and plan a surprise proposal for Sheere during their vacation in the Cinque Terre area, he told us how important it was for him to make it really special.
She is a Proposal Planner in Australia and of course, he was extremely committed to making sure that every single detail was “perfect” for her.
His biggest dream was to make her happy and treat her to a day she’ll remember forever.
Coming from abroad for the first time on Italian Riviera, he wanted to propose in a romantic and secluded spot but didn’t know where to start his search and asked for our help as local proposal photographers to plan everything down to the last details.
What we planned for Wayne’s intimate proposal in the Italian Riviera
- A private sunset cruise from La Spezia (the main city near Cinque Terre, which they chose as their base to explore the area easily)
- A welcome Spritz (the most famous Italian Aperitivo) to be waiting for them on board
- Handwritten love notes in Italian, with English translation on the back (of course, the last note was the all-important one: “Mi vuoi sposare?” or “Will you marry me?“)
- One of the most scenic spots along the coast for the proposal (in front of Porto Venere)
- Tour of the three islands (Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto) to discover caves and the most beautiful and unspoiled locations along the coast that can be reached by boat only
- The best Prosecco to celebrate (ah, la Dolce Vita!)
- Their favorite songs playing
- An engagement photo session in Porto Venere
- A romantic dinner in the restaurant with the best view over Porto Venere
She said YES in the Italian Riviera
As the boat cruised along the coast, we pointed out the best spots for photos and stopped at one of the most scenic spots in front of Porto Venere for the big moment. After the proposal, we popped open a bottle of the best Prosecco to celebrate and played their favorite songs to let the party begin!
A Romantic Engagement Session in Porto Venere
After the proposal, we took the couple to Porto Venere for their engagement session. Porto Venere is a picturesque fishing village located on the Gulf of Poets, just a few minutes away from Cinque Terre, and it is known for its colorful houses and stunning sea views. It’s the perfect place for a romantic photoshoot.
We walked around the village, taking photos of the couple among dramatic cliffs and charming corners. The warm glow of the sunset provided the perfect lighting for the photos.
The quintessential Italian Proposal
Now, imagine this… A romantic private boat cruise along the stunning Italian Riviera, bubbles, some good music to dance to and have fun while waiting for the sunset, celebrating Love and living la Dolce Vita.
Could you think of something better to ask the love of your life to grow old with you?
