Scavenger Hunt Proposal at Napoli | Saint Louis Photographer
An Epic Scavenger Hunt Proposal at Napoli
When Eric reached out about capturing his scavenger hunt proposal at Napoli, I knew this was going to be extraordinary. He planned a romantic adventure across St. Louis, filled with meaningful stops tied to their love story. Each location had special significance, and the night culminated in a heartfelt proposal at Napoli, surrounded by their closest family and friends.
The Journey Begins at Vin de Set
Eric started the evening by sending Gracie an exciting message: “Wear your best dress and go to the place of our first date.” A private driver arrived to escort her to Vin de Set, the first stop on her scavenger hunt proposal.
At Vin de Set, a sprinter van was waiting, along with her friends Allison and Lindsey. They greeted her with flowers and the first note from Eric. The note reflected on their first date and hinted at the next destination. This stop set the tone for the evening, combining nostalgia and excitement while building anticipation for what was to come.
A Scavenger Hunt Proposal Filled with Memories
Each stop along the scavenger hunt reflected a milestone in Eric and Gracie’s relationship. Friends waited for her at every location with flowers and a note from Eric, which included a clue to the next destination. After each stop, her friends joined her in the sprinter van, adding to the celebratory atmosphere.
•Midwestern: This was where they rekindled their love. Gabby and Krysten were waiting for Gracie with a note reflecting on how their second chance made their relationship even stronger.
•The Ferris Wheel at Union Station: Symbolizing a date that almost happened, this stop was full of growth and love. Gracie and a few friends enjoyed a ride on the ferris wheel, taking in the St. Louis skyline.
•Marlowe: A deeply significant stop, as this was where Eric and Gracie spent their first year living together. At Marlowe, Gracie had her hair and makeup touched up by Ashley, her trusted stylist, to ensure she felt radiant for the rest of the evening. She also paused to watch a heartfelt video from a friend who couldn’t attend.
•Winter Wonderland at Tilles Park: Driving by the glowing holiday lights at Tilles Park, Gracie laughed and reminisced with her friends while savoring the magic of the evening.
The Grand Finale: A Scavenger Hunt Proposal at Napoli
The final destination was Napoli. As the sprinter van arrived, Gracie stepped out to see Eric waiting for her in a burgundy suit. Family and friends surrounded him, holding sparklers.
A singer from The Voice performed while Gracie walked toward Eric. With a radiant smile, she listened as Eric shared his love and commitment. Then, he knelt and asked her to marry him. Gracie’s joyful “yes” was met with cheers and happy tears from everyone present.
