Tejas & Shivangi - A London House Proposal

July 29, 2019

Holy guacamole. If you want a full proof proposal plan, then boy do I have news for you. Merely heed my advice and follow these instructions:

Step One: Fly your girl into her favorite city for a weekend away with her best friends. Have them in on the plot, obviously.

Step Two: Get her friends to convince her to doll herself up for a night on the town with the girls. Have them suggest heading over to London House Chicago for cocktails with a view.

Step Three: Contact Manny (a.k.a. The Maestro) at London House and reserve the gorgeous cupola. He’ll hook you up with chocolate covered strawberries, rose petals and a bottle of Dom, of course.

Step Four: Completely shock your girlfriend as she’s led to the cupola by standing there with a giant plastic ring pop containing a GORGEOUS diamond ring.

Step Five: Completely shock your was-girlfriend-now-fiance again by taking her to the Riverwalk where all of your siblings and friends are waiting to help you celebrate your brand spanking new engagement.

Fin.

Need I say more?

Congratulations to this lovely couple! So grateful I was there to capture the action. Scroll on down for some of my favorites <3.
