So, you’re ready to propose. You’ve got the ring. You know it’s a yes.

But now you’re staring at Pinterest, wondering how the hell people make it look so put together.

That’s what a proposal setup service, like Amore Austin, is for.

If you’re even thinking about hiring a proposal setup service in Austin, here’s everything you need to know.

Proposal setup service

What is a proposal setup service?

Think of it like a wedding planner… but for your proposal.

Except instead of fifteen vendors and months of chaos, you get:

  • A dedicated planner
  • A fully styled, romantic setup
  • Logistics handled start to finish
  • A foolproof plan for the moment you ask

You show up with a ring and nerves.

We show up with candles, florals, a hidden photographer, and your dream yes moment.

What’s actually included in a proposal setup service?

Our custom proposal experiences can include:

  • Venue scouting & booking (even hidden spots you won’t find on Google)
  • Decor styling: candles, flowers, rugs, arches, fully tailored to your story
  • Photography (you’ll want proof of this moment, trust us)
  • Timeline & coordination: so you’re never guessing what happens when
  • Celebration add-ons: champagne toast, dinner reservations, you name it
  • Setup & cleanup: you don’t lift a finger, before or after

Want to bring in your dog?
Include your family?
Add live music?

We’ve done it all. (And yes, of course, it looked amazing.)

How far in advance should I book?

If you want a golden hour slot or a private venue: the sooner the better.

But here’s a rough guide:

  • 1–2 months out: Plenty of time for custom proposals
  • 2–3 weeks out: Still solid, but options may be more limited
  • Last-minute? We’ve pulled it off in 72 hours… but don’t recommend it if possible.

Can it still be a surprise?

YES. In fact, we specialize in that.

We help you build a believable cover story, like a fancy date night or photo shoot. We handle all communication and logistics behind the scenes.

You don’t even have to lie, just lean into being weirdly organized for once.

Because we’ve done this for dozens of couples, we know how to keep the surprise intact without any awkward slip-ups.

What are the best proposal locations in Austin?

Here are a few fan-favorites we love to style:

Lake Austin Dock

Private, scenic, and sunset-ready. Perfect for low-key romantics.

Rooftop With Skyline Views

Modern, moody, and very main character energy.

The Wayback

Chic and charming boutique hotel vibes just outside the city.

Custom Location

Have a spot in mind? Backyard, park, Airbnb? We’ll bring the setup to you.

Do I need a photographer?

Short answer: yes.

Long answer:

Even if you don’t post it anywhere (though you probably will), having those emotional, candid shots is something couples tell us they’re so glad they did.

We work with photographers who know how to be stealthy and who know exactly when the big moment is coming.

Also: photos of you crying happy tears are totally better than a grainy selfie.

Can I bring friends or family?

Absolutely. We’ve planned intimate just-us moments and full-on post-proposal parties.

Whether you want them hiding behind a tree or waiting nearby with champagne, we’ll help plan the timing and the surprise element so it flows perfectly.

What if it rains?

We always have a backup plan.

It’s Austin. The weather changes its mind every five minutes.

We’ll:

  • Keep an eye on the forecast
  • Build in a Plan B of an indoor or covered option
  • Communicate every step so you’re not panicking

Though rain proposals can still be stunning with the right setup.

Do I get to help design it?

Yes, but only if you want to.

We’ll ask you questions to get a feel for your partner’s style, favorite colors, inside jokes, vibe, etc.

Then we’ll turn that into a fully designed experience (with your approval, of course).

It’s like trusting us with the aux cord and knowing that we know the vibe.

So, why use a proposal setup service?

If you want:

  • A proposal that feels intentional, not improvised
  • A moment your partner will never forget
  • No stress, no mess, no “what do I do next?” panic

Then hiring a proposal setup service in Austin is a totally obvious next move.

Ready to pull this off without the pressure?

We’re here when you’re ready.

We’ll handle the candles, camera, and curveballs.

You just show up and ask.
