The Empire State Building
Make a beeline for the Empire State Building, that iconic landmark of the city, at sunset. Yes, yes, some cynics may call it cheesy, but it is the proposal spot perfect for hopeless romantics. And who doesn't love the Empire State Building's pivotal role in movie classics, An Affair to Remember and Sleepless in Seattle (if you didn't melt a little when Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan finally meet at the top, then you're made of stone). Make sure you buy advance tickets to the top deck, so you can skip the line.
Once at the top, admire the view and wait for the right moment. Get down on one knee, and propose with a gorgeous diamond engagement ring. If you want to continue the movie romance experience, celebrate your engagement afterwards at such Manhattan film classics as Gray's Papaya (Fools Rush In), Café Lalo (You've Got Mail), or Serendipity (Serendipity).
Morris-Jumel Mansion
Visit a piece of NYC's history at the Morris-Jumel Mansion, also known as the Roger and Mary Philipse Morris House. It was built in 1765 and today is the oldest house in NYC. This historic house is now a museum open to the public, highlighting the lives of Roger and Mary Morris with works of art and architecture to find inspiration in, and hidden gardens to stroll through. Our couple, Rob & Jonathan, got engaged on a spring afternoon in the gardens of the mansion, embracing the history of the city they have built a life together in, and giving the land a new story that will be part of its history forever.French Bistro
Visit the tiny French bistro La Bonne Soupe. Order the fixed price meal for two, and enjoy decadent French food in an intimate atmosphere, topped with French wine and rich chocolate mousse. During your meal, reminisce about special times you have shared and what makes you so great together.Central Park
When you've finished your meal, hold hands on the short stroll to Central Park, one of the best places to propose in Manhattan. Take a horse and carriage ride around the park. As the driver guides the horses along the meandering paths, pill out your diamond engagement ring and ask her to share her life with you.
