Candlelight proposal with the Brooklyn Bridge on the background

Brooklyn waterfront is one of the most picturesque places in New York. If you looking for an area that has magnificent Manhattan skyline views and one of the most iconic bridges, this area is just right for you. This neighborhood is famous for its views, history, and upscale dining. It is a perfect site to spend the day at and of course, ideal for surprise romantic engagements and weddings.

The most popular locations for marriage proposals are:

River Cafe garden
Boardwalk behind the Jane’s Carousel
Empire Stores rooftop
Pebble beach
Washington Street

Know before you go

These are very popular locations, so be aware that there will be other people around you. The best time to propose will be early in the morning before 11 am or after sunset. Of course, there is a difference between weekdays versus the weekends.

Also, the park is heavily patrolled, so if you planning to bring your decorations you need to get a permit. The park discourages using confetti, balloons, fake flower petals, and real candles at all times.

This area is known not only for its views but also outstanding dining, so make sure that you book a table in one of these restaurants to celebrate your engagement.
