Ice skating under the Central Park skyline, a private heated igloo glowing against the snow, and the most magical season in New York to ask the question. As a trusted partner at Wollman Rink, we create Christmas and winter proposals here, on the ice or inside a styled igloo, each one planned end to end by our team.
winter proposals staged at Wollman Rink, on the ice and in the igloos, making us one of the few planners trusted to work at this Central Park landmark.
Wollman Rink sits at the southeast corner of Central Park, the Manhattan skyline rising over the trees and the ice glowing under the lights. For a few months each winter it becomes the most romantic corner of the city—skaters circling, the holidays in the air, and the kind of scene that feels written for a proposal.
Right beside the ice, the rink’s private heated igloos offer something rarer still: a glowing, transparent dome just for the two of you, warm against the cold, framed by the park and the skyline. It is intimate, unexpected, and unforgettable in photographs.
As a trusted partner here, we know how to work both settings—timing a moment on the ice, or styling an igloo into something out of a winter story—while keeping the surprise intact from arrival to the question.
