Max & Bryanna: An Unforgettable Prague Surprise Proposal

The Perfect Surprise in the City of 100 Spires

Max’s commitment to the perfect moment was clear: he traveled to Prague to personally scout a location that was not only incredibly romantic but one that he and Bryanna could return to for years to come. He chose one of the ‘City of 100 Spires’ truly iconic spots for his surprise proposal, resulting in an unforgettable evening.

An Evening of Unscripted Magic

The setting was perfect, but the evening brought its own unique, unscripted moments—from a passing tour group and an older couple who stopped to fondly relive their youth as they embraced and kissed at the location that was evidently an important part of their youth. All the while, Max patiently waiting for the ideal, quiet moment as he sat nearby with Bryanna. Then, as the sky began to change color, he led Bryanna to the iconic spot overlooking the historic castle and Old Town. He quietly dropped to one knee and extended a gorgeous diamond engagement ring. Bryanna, visibly shocked, happily accepted. Following their surprise proposal, they celebrated their engagement by taking an unforgettable walk: exploring, laughing, embracing, and sharing an impromptu dance at Prague Castle before ending up at the historic Charles Bridge.

Fifteen Years in the Making

The radiant Bryanna announced their good news to the world: “beyond excited to officially call my best friend and the love of my life my fiancé.” This new chapter is built on a beautiful foundation of 15 years of friendship, 6 years of long distance, and 11 months of living together. Prague’s timeless beauty was the perfect backdrop for this milestone, and we can’t wait to see what the rest of their lives have in store!

Z&R Prague elopement

Looking for inspiration for your Prague elopement? Wishing to create a truly unique experience for you and your loved one? Look no further than Zoe & Randall.

These two first met while working in college. At first they were just really good friends who would excitedly meet over lunch. After a year, Randall confessed to Zoe that ever since that fateful 1st day of meeting her he had wanted a relationship.

They spent two wonderful years together before Randall proposed to marry. Zoe said yes and then the next chapter in their live began: where to marry? Should they have a big church wedding or perhaps a secret elopement wedding?

While watching videos on Expedia and travel vlogs on YouTube, they stumbled on to the enchanting scenery of Prague. They connected instantly. As Zoe recalls, the unique red-roofed buildings mixed with the historic cobblestone streets looked like a scene straight out of a fairytale. As she stated, her bohemian style was complemented perfectly in this beautiful city.

On a cool summer morning while many people were still asleep we met up with these and led them to some of our favorite locations. One of which they chose to have their beautiful and unforgettable elopment experience at – one that they will never forget.

To Zoe & Randall, we wish both of you much love and happiness in your new lives together as husband and wife!

Kathy & Joshua – Creative & Art Directed Prague Pre-Wedding

A wonderful couple who chose to experience the magical night time romance of Prague for their pre wedding portrait session.

For many couples from Asia, Prague is a gem that has rarely been explored. Most couples know about Paris, London and who can forget those wonderful locations closer to home in Asia. But Prague has been quietly winning over many couples who explore here. With increcible architecture, beautiful gardens and for those adventurous couples who brave the early wake up call – the magical night time romance of its gas lamp lit cobblestone streets always leaves a favorable impression.

For our latest couple, the very sweet and warm Kathy & Joshua – Prague was an experience they will never forget. The bonus: they were able to have pictures (real film) taken during their own portrait session with their antique cameras.

The day of…

We began their session at the riverside in hopes of having a dramatic sunrise. Though it was not as expected, it was still a wonderful experience as they were able to see first hand a romantic sunrise over the historic skyline of the Charles Bridge. They were all smiles as the sun quickly warmed up their bodies and gave them the neccessary energy to explore.

We did stop along the way for several wonderful locations that were picture perfect before heading to the Old Town Square where the historic Astronomical Clock is located. Kathy & Joshua were quite keen on having many images captured here as the medieval clock is such a unique icon of Prague. From here we explored the Old Town square before walking back towards Mala strana. One of their requested locations was a secluded spot over the city – which I always enjoy taking couples to. It is a rare respite from walking around as you can simply sit and enjoy the scenery down below.

Our last location The Vrtba Garden was where they changed in to a second outfit and brought out some vintage cameras. As these two are camera buffs I wanted to incorporate that aspect of their personalities.

Just as quickly as our day started it came to an end. But everyone was all smiles as we headed out from the garden.

Presented here is a wonderful morning these two will be able to relive over and over again thanks to these beautiful moments.

For adventurous couples who desire something truy magical we always recommend getting up early and having a pre wedding before dawn.
