Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe offers amazing marriage proposal ideas

March 1, 2017 By Jeffrey Weidel

If you’re a guy looking to make an indelible memory with a very unique marriage proposal, the Ritz-Carlton Lake Tahoe has some ideas to wow your bride-to-be.

Located mid-mountain at Northstar California Resort, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe has Ultimate Proposal offerings, providing guests with the engagement experience of a lifetime. With summer, winter, and year-round offerings, the resort’s team of knowledgeable experts will work to ensure engagements are executed flawlessly and provide lasting memories for years to come. All ideas are welcomed to ensure each proposal reflects the uniqueness of the couple and the specific vision of the individual proposing.

“While we have been celebrating incredible proposals for years. The Ultimate Proposal offerings bring engagements to new heights at the resort,” said Joseph Mattioli, general manager of The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe. “Not only will we customize these offerings to make them extremely personal, but we will ensure that each proposal is a remarkable moment for couples amidst our stunning background.”

Following a relaxing couple’s massage, the couples can meet at the spa’s one-of-a-kind solid copper soaking tub overlooking the pines and share an intimate proposal with champagne and strawberries.

Considered the most beautiful and magical time of the year in Lake Tahoe, a winter proposal surrounded by snow is a picture-perfect setting to pop the question.

WINTER PROPOSALS

Ski Lift Proposal: There are many ways to execute a ski lift proposal. For example, the resort team can prepare to have different phrases written in the snow that are visible to the couple as they are going up the ski lift. Phrases could include dates and milestones for the relationship, nicknames in the snow, and “Will you marry me?”

Private Snowshoe Stargazing Tour Proposal: Led by Tahoe Star Tours, the resort can coordinate a Private Snowshoe Stargazing Tour, where couples can enjoy an engagement amidst the starry night. Additionally, the resort team can set up a candle-lit area on the path complete with rose pedals and champagne on ice. Unique touches can be incorporated based on the vision of each individual on how the proposal will unfold.

Proposal Photo Shoot in the Snow: The resort can coordinate a festive engagement in the snow, with a hidden photographer to capture the special moment. Following the proposal, the couple can take engagement photos, featuring playful and romantic activities like snow fights and snow angels.

Private Gondola Proposal: Along with Northstar California Resort, the hotel can arrange a gondola for a private, over-the-top proposal including a candlelit experience and champagne. Following the proposal, the couple will enjoy a romantic dinner celebration at Manzanita.

As temperatures warm up and the white mountains turn green at Northstar California Resort, guests of The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe can work with the team to plan a dream engagement showcasing the other side of Lake Tahoe’s natural playground and gorgeous surroundings.

SUMMER PROPOSALS

Hike and Picnic Proposal: While enjoying a private guided hike on the mountain, the resort could organize a special picnic for the couple to stumble upon. This will include a picnic blanket, champagne and light bites.

Yacht Proposal on Lake Tahoe: Departing from the resort’s new Lake Club, couples will enjoy a romantic cruise proposal on a yacht featuring live music. Additionally, the cruise could feature a delectable dinner prepared by the resort’s Chef.

Lake Club Proposal: The resort’s team can assist with organizing a private, scenic proposal at the resort’s new Lake Club, using the serene pier or lawn at sunset overlooking North America’s largest alpine lake.

As part of the resort’s signature Marshmology program, the resort can curate a Marshmology proposal, where an engagement ring will be wedged in one of the s’mores made by the signature Marshmologist.

YEAR-ROUND PROPOSALS

Helicopter Tour Proposal: At an additional cost, the resort can arrange for a private helicopter tour over the scenic mountain. The helicopter will land on the top of the mountain, and the couple will enjoy a romantic proposal followed by dinner, complete with specialty cigars, desserts, and port or spirit pairings. (or dinner picnic set-up, see above)

Family Surprise Proposal: The couple can gather at the Lake Club, the private dining room in Manzanita or an extravagant suite, where the couple’s families would be waiting for a surprise proposal. The resort could provide “Will you marry me?” signs and banners, and the families could celebrate the engagement with a lavish party featuring music, food and entertainment.

Chef’s Table Proposal: Taking place at the exclusive Chef’s Table at Manzanita, the resort can execute a special coursed meal highlighting key moments in the couple’s relationship. For instance, courses could include dishes from their first date, their favorite snacks or meals, or the first holiday they spent together. The final course will include a sampling of wedding cakes, the perfect moment for a proposal.

Marshmology Proposal: As part of the resort’s signature Marshmology program, the resort can curate a Marshmology proposal, where an engagement ring will be wedged in one of the s’mores made by the signature Marshmologist.

Copper Tub Proposal: Following a relaxing couple’s massage, the couples can meet at the spa’s one-of-a-kind solid copper soaking tub overlooking the pines and share an intimate proposal with champagne and strawberries.

In addition to the Ultimate Proposal offerings, The Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe offers a Romance Package, for all couples to rekindle and ignite a little romance. Starting at $599 per night, the package includes overnight accommodations, a 50-minute cozy “cabin” couples massage for two, a $100 resort credit and late check-out.

The Ritz Carlton, Lake Tahoe encourages couples celebrating an Ultimate Proposal to use the hashtag #RCMemories in social media posts.
