Stunning Sunset Proposal on a NYC Rooftop

Nate and Steph’s proposal story is one for the books! On the rooftop of a luxury condo in Manhattan’s Financial District, with a panoramic view of the Hudson River and the New Jersey skyline, Nate popped the question at sunset. The setting was simple and focused on the incredible view, making the moment feel even more intimate and special!

As the sun was setting, Nate brought Steph over to our spot to “take a selfie”, but instead, he got down on one knee and proposed. The look of joy and surprise on Steph’s face was unmistakable — it was a genuine moment of happiness, captured against a stunning backdrop that only NYC can provide.

After the proposal, the celebration continued in the building’s event space, which was set up with decorations and food. Their closest friends were there to celebrate the engagement, adding to the memorable evening.

This NYC rooftop was a perfect choice for Nate and Steph, offering privacy, amazing views, and a quiet spot to have a moment to themselves in a busy city. It’s a reminder that sometimes the simplest plans can lead to the most extraordinary memories.
