St. Louis Proposal Ideas

St. Louis offers numerous romantic spots to make your proposal special!

1. Gateway Arch

The Gateway Arch is an iconic monument here in St. Louis, Missouri – with a stunning panoramic view of St. Louis and the Mississippi River. It has a rich history as it symbolizes the westward expansion of the United States. You can arrange for a private tram ride to the top, making the moment even more intimate and memorable.

2. Mississippi River Cruise

Plan a romantic riverboat cruise and pop the question with the city skydive as your backdrop! A dinner cruise on the Mississippi River offers an elegant and timeless setting. The gentle sway of the boat, the twinkling city lights, and a beautifully set table create a loving ambiance for a heartfelt proposal.

3. Forest Park

With beautiful gardens, scenic lakes, and historical landmarks – Forest Park provides a picturesque setting for a pretty proposal. Forest Park is one of the largest urban parks in the U.S. and home to many attractions like the St. Louis Art Museum and Missouri History Museum. Consider proposing at the Jewel Box, a stunning greenhouse made of iron and glass from the 1930s, housing flower displays and a reflecting pool!

4. St. Louis Zoo

For animal lovers, a proposal and the zoo surrounded by exotic wildlife can be a memorable experience. The St. Louis Zoo is renowned for its beautiful settings and variety of animals. You can plan a proposal in the tranquil setting of the Butterfly House or amidst the playful antics of sea lions at the Sea Lion Sound exhibit.

5. Skydive St. Louis

If you really want to blow your loved one away, opt for something more exciting and original – like a skydiving marriage proposal at Skydive St. Louis! Not only will you get amazing, unobstructed views of the beautiful St. Louis landscape while on your tandem skydive, you’ll also experience the greatest adventure of your life with your loved one right beside you – making your proposal one for the books! 

Elevate your proposal – literally – with the thrill of freefalling from 10,000 feet in the air, followed by your partner seeing the “Will You Marry Me?” banner on the ground as you wait patiently on one knee. Skydive St. Louis offers professional photography services to capture every moment, ensuring that you can relive and share the excitement for years to come!
