A Winter Afternoon Proposal in Central Park, NYC

Iconic, is the first word that comes to mind when I hear “I want to propose in Central Park”. In late December New York City is a magical place in every sense. Christmas lights are strung, garland is wrapped, horse drawn carriages are clacking around the park, and the cold brisk NYC wind makes warmth feel so much more deserving. Whether it’s the warmth of a hot chocolate in your hand or your partners hand, something warm feels good.

While the leaves and greenery are long gone from Central Park, the views are abundant. The stark contrast between you and the environment stands out, and when photographed it just hits difference. For Matt’s secret proposal, we chose the area just past the Bow Bridge for it’s privacy and view.

A True NYC Winter Proposal atop Cat's Rock in Central Park

Where and when to propose in Central Park - Cat’s Rock in the morning is the spot that provides privacy and a view.

Photographing proposals in Central Park against nature and the concrete jungle is such a contrast from the typical New York City hustle and bustle proposal. Finding the right spot in Central Park for you really depends on time of day (lighting), if you have a special place in the park, and the seasons. Another factor to consider is how busy will the park be during your proposal? Do mind others in your photos or would you like more privacy?

Cat’s Rock above the Central Park ice skating rink is the spot that provides a view while be convenient. I suggest this spot to many clients when they ask about the park and capturing a view of NYC.
