A Luxury Proposal at Anantara Convento di Amalfi
Some proposals are unforgettable not just because of the moment, but because of where and how they happen.
That was exactly the case for this incredibly romantic (and slightly nerve-wracking) surprise proposal at the Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel.
Hidden above the cliffs of Amalfi, wrapped in history and Mediterranean breeze, this former 13th-century Capuchin monastery is now a five-star luxury hotel—one of the most exclusive spots along the entire coast. But it’s more than just luxury. It's a place of peace, privacy, and deep emotional energy.
Let me take you behind the scenes of a story I’ll never forget.
A Proposal Worthy of the Setting
He was nervous. Really nervous.
And rightly so—this wasn’t just a dinner or a date night. It was the moment he would ask the most important question of his life.
To make it all perfect, he didn’t just plan.
He orchestrated.
From the table positioning on the terrace to the timing of the service, everything had to flow with precision. And the staff at Anantara? Absolute professionals.
Chefs, hosts, waiters, concierge—they were all subtly involved, making sure things stayed smooth while the surprise unfolded in the most elegant way.
Meanwhile, I helped calm his nerves and fine-tune the setup. We reviewed locations within the property, coordinated movements, and made sure the light was perfect.
When the time came, with the sun slowly dipping behind the cliffs and the sea glowing below, he dropped to one knee.
She said yes.
And the air stood still for a moment.

For Couples Who Want Elegance, Calm, and Connection
What made this session stand out wasn’t just the ring, the terrace, or even the history.
It was the energy. These two weren’t trying to impress anyone. They just wanted a private, emotional, and timeless experience. No crowds. No interruptions. No pressure.
That’s exactly what Anantara offers.
And that’s what I always try to preserve in every photo I take: not just the setting, but the feeling of the moment.
