If you’re visiting NYC for the first time or have not been able to explore it as much, we know that looking for specific things to do can be draining! NYC is truly the city that NEVER sleeps! Let Enchanting Engagements help you find the most romantic and/or celebration settings during your engagement season!
We had previously talked about the importance of relaxing and reflecting before your engagement, as well as celebrating and enjoying the moment with loved ones right after you hear that YES! Below, we will include a couple of activities that can be done right here in NYC to help set the tone of love and connection right before and/or right after you pop the question.
AIRE Ancient Baths:
It is described as an “oasis of tranquility”. Let yourself be guided by the candlelight and the aroma of orange blossom and complete your experience with a massage or ritual to achieve a state of total relaxation of body and mind.
Rooftop Cinema Club:
Arrive early to immerse yourself in the cityscape and enjoy a full bar and food menu from Embassy Suites. Then grab your classic cinema concessions from the box office and select your seats. When the movie starts, you’ll be able to live completely in those movie moments with state-of-the-art wireless headphones and an amazing view of our new LED screen.
Rooftop Reds:
Rooftop Reds is the first urban rooftop vineyard in the world. While most people wouldn’t expect to see a vineyard growing in New York, the founder says it’s all about science. The Rooftop Reds seems to bring together the best of both worlds, and clients can enjoy their privileged view of the city while sitting in the middle of a vineyard.
One if By Land, Two if by Sea:
This restaurant offers gourmet food in a historic setting. Formerly the site of Aaron Burr’s carriage house, the eatery is characterized by several fireplaces, a live piano player, and 200-year-old paintings. The ambiance is one of old-world elegance and romance, with a touch of cool. Established in 1973, One if by Land, Two if by Sea soon became the go-to spot in NYC for engagements, anniversaries, and weddings. More people are said to have announced their engagement here than at any other restaurant in Manhattan.

At Enchanting Engagements, we know that getting engaged is such an exciting time! However, we also understand how overwhelming a marriage proposal can be. Making sure that this turns out perfect for your partner isn’t easy. There are so many components between getting the perfect ring, making sure loved ones are all there, preparing the perfect speech, and making sure every element of this proposal is a memory that they will never forget!
I am a firm believer that what makes a moment like this the most significant and memorable is when it becomes an experience rather than an instance. As you plan your engagement, we would like to help make this more of a memorable experience by talking to you about activities that you can do before and after this huge moment to celebrate this special transition in your love journey!
Relaxation & Reflection to prepare for FOREVER!
BEFORE embarking on this wonderful journey as an engaged couple, you want to make sure you and your partner are relaxed and calm. This will allow that special moment to sink in so much deeper. When we are relaxed, we are so much more present in every moment we are a part of. Some ways to relax and reflect with your partner may include getting a couple’s massage, having a romantic movie night under the stars, having an intimate picnic where you revisit your journey as a couple, and touring the most beautiful views of NYC either by land on a horse carriage ride or a kayak/boat in Central Park, etc.
Celebration and Gathering as you plan for FOREVER!
AFTER hearing the most anticipated words of the night ‘YES I DO!’ , you will want to celebrate this moment with the most important people in your lives! Whether you want to do a classy dinner or party the night away to experience your love along with your loved ones, the most important thing to make sure of is that there is a vibe that matches your energy. If you’re looking for a romantic setting, you can try a restaurant with ambient lighting or a cruise with live music. If you’re looking for a more passionate and flirty setting, you can visit one of many speakeasy bars and/or rooftop wineries /bars in NYC.
There are countless opportunities in NYC to make sure your engagement is MEMORABLE and UNFORGETTABLE! Next week, I will share a couple of my favorite spots that encompass the factors shared above!
