Puerto Rico Marriage Proposal

We’ve previously written a blog about Puerto Rico Proposal Ideas.  After planning this beautiful proposal there, I learned so much more about Puerto Rico and just wanted to share.  It will provide you with inspiration to create your own Puerto Rico marriage proposal.

Puerto Rico Marriage Proposal

First, I want to share the details of this Puerto Rico Marriage Proposal we planned for Abdiel.  Abdiel and Flor were visiting Puerto Rico and he just knew it was the perfect place to propose.  During the interview with Abdiel, we learned that she loves red roses and the Beauty and the Beast movie. Abdiel also wanted to make sure that there was privacy for their proposal moment and of course, that there was a view of the ocean.  We came up with the perfect proposal idea.

We found the perfect venue that had a view of the ocean.  We set up a gorgeous arch with red roses and a sign that said, “The Most Beautiful Story Ever Told.”  On the table, we placed candlesticks and a Beauty and the Beast belle rose.  When Flor stumbled upon our setup, she was totally surprised. Abdiel dropped to his knee and proposed.

After the proposal, the couple celebrated with wine and did a photoshoot on the beach. After the photoshoot, they sat down to enjoy dinner.

If he beach isn’t what you are thinking, there are plenty of other places to propose. Puerto Rico is a land of stunning forests and breathtaking ocean vistas, but it also possesses an illustrious history and deep cultural roots. The cities and settlements of Puerto Rico are historic and captivating, with a distinct tropical charm. Here are a few man-made locations that might make for the ideal proposal spot:

Old San Juan

If the city life is what you both crave, and you’d rather vacation in the hustle and bustle of a steamy tropical city, then Old San Juan is the place for you. This historic city is the heart of Puerto Rico, and the oldest settlement on the island. The buildings of the city are painstakingly restored and maintained to their full 16^th century glory, and provide a tantalizing peek into the history of this gorgeous island. If your girlfriend is a history buff, consider proposing on the ramparts of a historic Spanish fort, overlooking the startlingly blue ocean.

El Morro

If your girlfriend is your princess, perhaps you should take her to a castle for a royal proposal. Castillo San Felipe del Morro, colloquially known as El Morro or Morro Castle, is a sweeping 16^th century citadel teetering on the ocean’s edge. The castle’s buildings and grounds have been restored to authentic condition, and the whole citadel is open to tourists. This castle, the location of many historic battles, is the perfect location to pop the question to the queen of your heart.

Raíces Fountain

Maybe your sweetheart is a little more laid back, a little more shy, and you want a sweet and romantic place to go down on one knee. In that case, we recommend heading back to Old San Juan, down the Paseo del Morro, to the Raíces Fountain. This famous fountain is a stunning piece of art celebrating the founding settlers of Puerto Rico, whose mixed heritage gave rise to its unique beauty and culture. For the most impact, arrive at the fountain at sunset, when the golden light shines through the water and creates a dazzling display.
