Today, The Heart Bandits Proposal Planners are so excited to share the romantic proposal we created for Darin and Genessa.   Darin is seriously one of the nicest guys we have ever met and when he contacted us he let us know right away that Genessa was the love of his life, and that he would stop at nothing to give her an over the top proposal.  And he did!

Darin and Genessa were visiting Portland and that is where Darin wanted to propose.  Darin is an extremely busy business man which is why he needed to hire The Heart Bandits to plan the details of the proposal.  That doesn’t mean Darin wasn’t involved, not at all!  Darin had his hand in our proposal planning all the way from insisting on birds of paradise flowers, teal vases, and even changing the lyrics of a song to make it more meaningful to Genessa.  And what makes this proposal even more unique is that when we presented some wedding proposal ideas to Darin, he picked 2!  He wanted Genessa to feel as special and amazing as he thought she was so he wanted to give her 2 surprises.  Here is how it went down:

Darin and Genessa went to Multnomah Falls where she thought they were taking a walking tour.  They go up to the bridge and there are a bunch of “tourists” up there.  Darin asks one of the tourists to take their photo.  As he snaps the photo, he begins to sing “Marry Me” by Train.  Genessa soon learned that he was the lead singer of an a capella group and the other members joined in to serenade her.  They all got down on one knee at the end of the song, and Darin got down on one knee next.  Genessa said yes!

But the surprises didn’t stop there.  At 6pm, Darin told Genessa they had a dinner reservation.  Instead of dinner, they were escorted up to the rooftop at Hotel deLuxe.  When Genessa stepped onto the rooftop, she was shocked to see a full live band there just to play for her and Darin.  She walked down an aisle of birds of paradise flowers and candles which led her to a canopy and a table for 2.  Darin and Genessa sat and looked over a photobook of memories and sipped on Dom Perignon.  Then they danced the night away.  See photos below and video here.

      Thanks Jennifer! Your poetry is amazing and having it in a photobook would definitely add a nice touch. That would be amazing and we’ll definitely recommend that to clients.
