Nate & Amanda | Berkeley Grizzly Peak San Francisco Bay View Proposal

To help with planning his proposal, Nate enlisted the help of his good friends Richie & Jenny. They had actually planned another friend’s proposal in the past, so this wasn’t new to them!

A few weeks before the proposal, Richie, Jenny, and I met up in the hills of Berkeley to scout out a location. We found the perfect spot — a beautiful cliffside point overlooking Berkeley, Oakland, San Francisco, Sausalito, and the SF Bay. Basically the whole area around SF. But the day before the proposal went down, they actually went back with Nate and found an even better spot, one totally isolated from sightseers and hikers, and spacious enough to set up a picnic table.

Harjot & Zeenia | Palace of Fine Arts Surprise Engagement

Though they’ve been together for seven years and are technically already engaged, Harjot knew he was missing something: a proper proposal for his future wife. After shopping for wedding outfits in the East Bay, the two went over to the Palace of Fine Arts for a walk under the rotunda and around the lagoon, then made their way over to the tree that has become such a popular spot for photos. Harjot got down on one knee, gave the proposal Zeenia deserved, and presented her with a beautiful ring. I loved the thoughtfulness that went into this, and seeing the pure happiness on both of their faces was perfect. Congrats to Harjot & Zeenia!
