Andrew's Private Empire State Building Proposal

Photographing Andrew’s private surprise Empire State Building rooftop proposal is a moment I won’t forget. It made my job as a NYC Proposal Photographer the best job in the world.

Proposing in New York City during March could be hit or miss with the weather. However, on today’s proposal Andrew rolled the dice and came up with the perfect weather. We could not have asked for a more perfect morning. The sun was out, the wind remained calm, and the visibility was stunning each and every way we looked.

How did Andrew propose?

Andrew told Jess they were going for a private tour of the Empire State Building via his friend. Upon reaching the top floor observation deck they walked around. Immediately they were in awe of the view. After a few moments of taking in the view, Andrew proposed.

Planning a Rooftop Proposal atop the Empire State Building takes planning.

Do you want your moment to be private, semi-private, or on the spot with it being open to the public? These are things to think about. If you work with the Empire State Building Marketing team you could have a totally private proposal, or you could do a semi-private proposal with a portion of the viewing deck roped off. You could have unlimited access to the observation deck at hours that are not usually available. It’s totally up to you. Each experience is special and unique, and has its benefits.
