Engagement proposal Ideas - for your hotel room

decoration:


When it comes to decorating hotel rooms for proposals, it’s all about the details. One of our most-loved ideas is decorating the room with petals in their favourite colour and a heart shape on the bed, a simple yet romantic touch that always makes an impact. Lighting is key, so we often use LED candles to create a soft and magical glow.


By adding in a Will You Marry Me sign, or even Will You Marry Me balloons and personal elements like handwritten notes or photos the room becomes a true reflection of your relationship. You could even incorporate a theme that reflects on a special moment or chapter in your relationship, perhaps a travel memory, or a movie or even something culturally significant to you both. We love to dream up these ideas with our clients and really create something one-of-a-kind. From Harry Potter to Paris we've brought unique concepts to life - all in a bedroom setup.


No two proposals are the same - we believe your proposal should be perfect for you, because your love story deserves something unique and special!



A Shard Proposal - Hotel Room Marriage Proposal above the city:


One of our most recent proposals took place high above the city in a private suite at The Shangri-La Hotel, The Shard - with sweeping views of Tower Bridge and a room transformed into a stunning red and gold escape. 


The brief? Modern, luxurious and romantic.


We started with a rich red and gold colour palette, layering petals to border the room. Dozens of candles lit up the space, while heart shaped balloons floated above, creating a polished look.


At the centre of the room, glowing ‘Marry Me’ LED letters created the perfect proposal moment - framed by clusters of red roses in gold-accented vases placed around the suite. To make it truly personal, we added gold framed photos from throughout our couple's relationship: including holidays, everyday moments, and milestones they’ve shared together. It was a beautiful way to tell their story and fill the space with meaning and love. The windows of The Shard as always delivered outstanding views of the London skyline, with Tower Bridge illuminated beautifully in the background. 


We also ensured the couple's favourite song "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran was playing ahead of the big moment on the speakers and of course brought in our photographer to capture it all.

As they stepped into the room, London was twinkling outside the windows and their own love story was moving on to the next chapter. 


As he dropped to one knee and asked her to marry him, she said "YES", through many happy tears. A thoughtful, intimate moment - exactly as planned. It was private, heartfelt and absolutely unforgettable - everything a hotel room proposal should be.

5 Top Tips for a Perfect Hotel Bedroom Proposal:

  1. A bit of thoughtful planning goes a long way when preparing to propose in a hotel room.

  1. Keeping the proposal a surprise is key. We’ll help you manage the details so your partner doesn’t suspect a thing, by letting us do the coordinating while you’re out it means that the proposal can stay a secret up until the reveal. 


  1. Consider personalising the set-up with their favourite colours, flowers or even a sentimental item that is meaningful to your relationship. Other ways to make it special to you as a couple is by having a personalised playlist, a speech prepared and even a placing the ring a customised ring box (for example if they loves Disney you can place it in a themed box designed as a carriage or an enchanted rose) - these little touches are what make the experience even more special. 


  1. Photography and/or Videography is always a lovely addition to capture the big moment without interrupting the intimacy and can always be followed by a proposal photoshoot. These proposal pictures and memories will last forever and you can always look back at them and share them with your friends and family, now and in the future.
