In the heart of SoHo lies a hidden gem perfect for popping the question, as Dan and Syd recently discovered. Elizabeth Street Garden, known for its lush greenery and eclectic sculptures, was the idyllic setting for their surprise proposal, and it could be for yours too.
Dan and Syd, a couple whose love for the city is as deep as their love for each other, chose this garden oasis as it’s a stone’s throw from their home and a place they often wander through. On the night of the proposal, the garden’s secluded nooks provided a sense of privacy and intimacy, allowing for a moment that was theirs and theirs alone, even in the bustling city.
The photographs speak volumes of the surprise and delight that unfolded that cool, quiet evening. I used a wider lens to capture their special moment framed by the garden’s natural beauty, emphasizing the genuine surprise on Syd’s face and the couple’s overall joy.
Elizabeth Street Garden is more than just a proposal spot; it’s a convenient starting point for an evening of celebration in SoHo’s renowned dining scene or a nearby gathering with loved ones.
