Choosing a Las Vegas Proposal Location | LGBTQIA+ Affirming Travel Proposal Photographer

Las Vegas is known as the wedding capitol of the world for good reason, but we all know how the saying goes: first comes love, then comes marriage! So if you’re planning to ask your love the Big Question so you can get to the marriage part, let’s talk all about proposals and choosing the right proposal location for your big moment.

Planning a Good Proposal

Planning your proposal should not be a stressful experience! Of course you want to get everything right and create a magical moment but you have to remember that at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is that the two of you are happy. Write a proposal speech that will sweep your partner off their feet, plan the day and time, hire your photographer (hey hey!), and—arguably one of the most important details—choose a location!

Choosing the Right Proposal Location

The “right” proposal location isn’t about the fanciest, most adventurous thing you can imagine—unless that’s your vibe! I’ve seen some truly extravagant proposals (like this helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon? Wowza!) and they fit those couples perfectly. But if you and your partner enjoy low-key activities, choose a location away from crowds or without lots of moving pieces to keep the moment focused on you. This could be a sunrise picnic in the desert, or a stolen moment in front of the Bellagio fountains, or an elaborate setup involving friends and family. I’m happy to talk through some options with you! You can also check out this list of popular proposal spots in Las Vegas for some inspiration.

Hiring a Las Vegas Proposal Photographer

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: photographers do so. much. more. than just take pictures! I’m full of invaluable advice, over a decade of experience, and countless connections for locations and vendors to help you craft the perfect Las Vegas proposal. Once we have all the details hammered out, my focus shifts completely to capturing every little moment and detail. This moment goes by in such a blur, so having a photographer to document it is invaluable! The story of your relationship and your proposal will play like a movie when you flip through your images together, choosing the perfect ones for your announcements, your parents’ walls, your mantle, or just for fun.

To say I’m excited for your proposal—and every proposal I’m lucky enough to photograph—is a massive understatement. I love love, and I can’t wait to see yours transform into something entirely new!
