All Cheyene knew was that she and Cole would be taking some couple photos . What she didn’t know was that he had planned much more than that! With the Tower Bridge as his background, Cole popped the question; while Cheyene was shocked at first, she happily said yes. We caught the exact moment they got engaged and the gorgeous couple pictures that they took around London after the beautiful proposal!
Marlon proposed to Julie on the lush green grass in DUMBO on this summer night, a bouquet of flowers at the ready. The Heart Bandits team set up a little area for their proposal with some candles and a violinist to set the mood for one of the most important nights of their lives together.
Jonathan and Rosalie have been going out for two-and-a-half years now. They met in California, where they both live and grew up. This trip was meant to celebrate her finishing grad school in Occupational Therapy. She has been “subtly hinting” for him to propose for months now. (She even elbowed him a couple times as: “When are you proposing, bud?” He gave me some smiles.)
They went and picked out the ring together – so she knew it was coming soon. But he had made it seem like it wasn’t going to happen in Hawaii because he had a friend who proposed in Hawaii and he didn’t want to copy him. All of that was just to throw Rosalie off his tracks.
She was genuinely surprised. All 40-somewhat people at the waterfall saw and some clapped. She kept saying, “No, no, no, you’re kidding!” And the guy behind us kept saying, “Yes, yes, yes, girl!”
They leave Saturday and have a bunch of plans until then. They were going to head to Haleiwa Bowls for an acai bowl right after the proposal. This is Jonathan’s first time in Hawaii and Rosalie’s 2nd time. They plan to go ziplining, touring the Jurassic Park set at Kualoa, and watching the fireworks at the Hilton on Friday night. They kept mentioning how the hike there almost felt like they were in the Jurassic Park movie.
See more of their gorgeous photos under the cut.
Proposal Planners: The Heart Bandits
Another gorgeous The Heart Bandits proposal in Central Park! They set up a carpet of petals for Richard to get down on one knee on and propose to Juliette while their family watches, hidden behind some plants to add to the surprise!
We photographed Ragnar and Jona’s simple and sweet summer proposal in Central Park. They’re both Icelandic police officers, and a little fun fact we learned is that in their culture, both man and woman get a ring during the proposal!
Their lovely proposal was organized by the awesome The Heart Bandits team.
