Sunrise Proposal in Gordes.
Gordes, South of France: a moment to remember.
Planning a proposal at sunrise in Gordes, one of Provence’s most picturesque villages, promises a moment as unforgettable as the scenery. Nestled high on a hillside with breathtaking views of the Luberon Valley, Gordes is very wellknown everywhere in the world.
How lucky was I when G. wrote to me about his proposal?
How lucky he was when he saw I was sooooo into it?
My name is Sylvia Calmet. I am a destination wedding photographer where I live and work. I often work with foreigners couples. That’s what happened with this couple from Hong Kong. I can’t wait to tell you their whole story : it was such an amazing morning. Please grab a tea, a coffee or whatever you want to drink : this is a romantic story.
A marriage proposal in front of the Gordes view
Imagine starting the day with a quiet sunrise in front of the view. Right after G. wrote to me, I started to organize everything.
We decided together that we will meet around 7:00 am so they can have the view only for them. The calm of early morning, with fewer tourists around, offers a sense of seclusion and peace.
Here, the panorama of Gordes perched on the hillside, with the first light spilling over the valley, makes for an awe-inspiring setting. As the sun rises, casting golden hues over the landscape, it’s the perfect time to capture this special moment.
She said yes: let’s go downtown:
As the village awakens, imagine the intimate walk through Gordes’ cobblestone streets. Backeries and cafés are just open : you can smell the croissants coming out of the oven. After the proposal, we celebrate with a leisurely breakfast at a local café downtown. We also saw fresh pastries & Provençal fruits at the local market.
If you want to fancy your proposal a little bit : a glass of wine or champagne is possible as well.
A sunrise proposal in Gordes is not just a beautiful setting; it’s a romantic experience filled with the tranquility and timeless allure of Provence. It’s a perfect way to start your forever, embraced by the beauty of southern France.
Sunrise or sunset in Gordes for your proposal :
At dawn, the village is bathed in a soft golden glow. For a sunset proposal, the sky transforms into vibrant hues, casting a warm light over the ancient stone buildings. Both sunrise and sunset offer a romantic and unforgettable start to your life together, immersed in Provence’s enchanting beauty. In the summer you just have to choose if you want to get up very early, and have the village for yourself. Or if you prefer to do a night sunset session and be surrounded by more people.
