The Knowledge You Need To Find Your Perfect Gemstone
We understand that choosing the right location for your proposal is equally important to the act itself, so we’ve put together a list of exceptional locations to set the tone for an unforgettable experience.
Manchester offers a diverse range of breathtaking places to propose that would suit any personality, but we’ve done the work and spared you the hustle to look any further. From the romance of rooftop views that showcase the city’s beauty to serene gardens and peaceful lakesides, these locations will ensure that you have the intimate space to make your proposal truly magical.
For a scene that feels like it’s straight out of a romance novel, we recommend 2 restaurants located high above the city skyline: 20 Stories and Cloud 23. Imagine asking the question as the sunset paints the sky with warm hues of pink and the city lights magically flicker to life, one by one, just like fireflies.
Complementary to the breathtaking panoramic views, you will also be well looked after by the attentive staff that will ensure to create a truly unforgettable intimate experience. We advise letting the venues know beforehand about your proposal in order to benefit from their most exceptional service, and perhaps a complementary glass of champagne too.
Another one of our personal favourites is The Ivy Collection in Spinningfields that is guaranteed to satisfy even the fussiest of quests. You’ve got 3 beautiful restaurants to choose from with distinctive interiors and mouthwatering food. Just picture yourself and your loved one in the Roof Garden, surrounded by lush greenery and watching the soft golden glow as the evening settles in creating truly magical and romantic scenery. The Ivy is no stranger to proposals or celebrations of any kind, so in this case letting the staff know is advised again. They will help you create the perfect proposal whether it’s by arranging a private corner or adding personalised touch to your dining experience.
For couples who cherish the great outdoors and seek a more intimate proposal setting, Manchester’s natural gems offer a tranquil and romantic atmosphere making their most special moment feel deeply personal, serene, and unforgettable.
Fletcher Moss Botanical Gardens is a hidden gem in the heart of Manchester, providing an enchanting refuge filled with charming pathways, vibrant blooms and peaceful pockets of nature.
Imagine you and your loved one taking a promenade alongside fragrant flower beds and up until you reach that perfect spot. As soon as you pull out the ring and pop the question the time stops. The sun shines gently through the tree canopy and all you can hear is the birds singing in harmony and your lover’s “Yes!!”
For those of you who prefer water views and open spaces, Chorlton Water Park offers an idyllic setting for outdoor proposals. The expansive lake surrounded by lush greenery ensures you will find the perfect hidden spot that offers the needed intimacy and solitude for a meaningful moment.
Now, whether you want to walk the scenic trails hand in hand or have a romantic picnic by the lakeside, you are guaranteed to have a proposal that feels deeply personal and timeless. Chorlton Water Park is an ideal location for couples that find embrace in natural beauty and each other.
