Steps for a Successful Proposal:
Reserve a Wine Tour:
Begin by booking a wine tour at the winery. When making your reservation, let them know that you're planning a proposal. The team at Chateau Chantal is renowned for their hospitality and will ensure everything is perfectly orchestrated. With your date and time locked in, it's time to book your photographer too.

The tour concludes at the scenic archway overlooking East Bay. This is where the magic happens. As you stand under the archway, with the breathtaking view as your backdrop, it's time to pop the question.
Capturing the Moment:
This is where I come in. Positioned discreetly, I'll capture the raw emotion and joy of the proposal without intruding on your moment. My presence will be revealed only after you've received that joyful "yes," allowing you to savor the surprise and spontaneity of the occasion.
A Hidden Surprise:
Meanwhile, your friends and family can gather in the second parking lot and lobby area, staying hidden until the moment is right. After you've had a few moments to bask in your engagement bliss, they can join you in celebration, adding another layer of joy to the experience.
Post-Proposal Photoshoot:
