Eiffel Tower Engagement

A little Flash back on one of our clients Paris engagement photographer. They flew all the way from Australia to get engaged in Paris. Our dear clients decided on an Eiffel tower engagement at the champ de Mars on a beautiful september afternoon! We set up our traditional gourmet picnic for them on the grass, close enough to the eiffel tower so that our professional photographer could take some gorgeous photos of their surprise proposal.

The Eiffel tower, Paris iconic symbol.

The Eiffel Tower is often considered an iconic symbol for lovers in Paris because it embodies romance, history, and a sense of timeless beauty. There are a few reasons why it’s become such a romantic symbol:

Symbol of Paris and France: The Eiffel Tower Engagement is the most recognizable landmark in Paris and is deeply tied to the city’s identity. Paris is often called the “City of Love.” The Eiffel Tower, as Paris most famous monument, naturally becomes a part of that association. It is certainly the most amazing strusture in the city which lifts you up to the skies.

Cultural Representation of Romance: Over the years, the Eiffel Tower Engagement has been featured in countless films, songs, and artworks, often in romantic contexts. Its portrayal in pop culture solidified its role as a backdrop for love stories, reinforcing its association with romance in the collective imagination.

I first went up the tower with my parents as a child. Years later, I still remember my dad being scared of height & the iron lift case lifting the family up to the third floor. We strongly recommend our clients to go up the tower during their Paris visit. It is a mind blowing experience.
