Niagara falls proposal
Niagara Falls is a destination and a special place for a lot of couples. That’s why it can be a perfect destination for a proposal.
This time I had the opportunity to document a double one. Yes, I know, it was exciting.
Elizabeth and Shail had been together for a long time, and at the time of the proposal, they were in a long-distance relationship. Elizabeth was living in Arizona, and Shail was in Toronto. They arranged a formal wedding ceremony in January in their home country, India. Although they were planning their wedding, neither of them had proposed yet. That’s why Elizabeth decided to propose to Shail before January and contacted me to document it.
Niagara Falls holds a very special place for them. That weekend, Elizabeth flew to Toronto, and they decided to spend it in Niagara. Elizabeth and I had never met in person, but we had a video call beforehand to ensure we were familiar with each other.
As they were walking towards the falls, Elizabeth and I recognized each other, and she stopped and went down on one knee. She had handmade a beautiful box filled with photos, each containing a smaller box, with the last one holding a ring for Shail. It was a fake ring with a playful puke-face emoji. To everyone’s surprise, Shail then pulled out a real ring for Elizabeth.
It was a big surprise and a truly beautiful proposal. I’m so happy I was part of it.
