Where To Propose In Paris

Sarah Horrocks Nov 2009 No Comment Bookmark or Share

If a mini-break signals there’s more to a relationship than just shagging (thanks, Bridget Jones), a romantic trip to Paris is going to set wedding bells ringing loud and clear in her head. She will be expecting you to propose, so it’s important a) not to bottle it; and b) to do it in style.

There’s romance on every corner in the city of love and light, but to help you out here are ten of the best original and clichéd places to pop the question. Remember, public displays of affection are the norm in Paris, so don’t be shy. The French aren’t. Oh, and mind the merde

1 Up the Eiffel Tower

Let’s get the glaringly obvious one over with. By day, this monolithic lump of iron isn’t much to write home about. At night, clever lighting transforms it into a delicate golden lattice that appears to float on the cityscape and reflects in the Seine. The tower also twinkles with starry lights on the hour after dark, so time your big moment to coincide. Why not make like Tom Cruise, who proposed to Katie Holmes at the top? You’re practically at one with the aliens up there. Alternatively, avoid the crowds and souvenir touts by booking a table on the terrace of the Café de l’Homme at nearby Trocadéro, which has some of the best views of the tower.
