Let’s Begin!
The Temple of Debod… The chosen place!
The Temple of Debod is an iconic place in Madrid, famous for offering the best sunset view in the city.
Did you know that this ancient Egyptian building was moved stone by stone to Spain in 1968 and placed in its new location to maintain approximately the same orientation it had in its original site, from east to west? Incredible, but true!
This temple was a generous gift from Egypt to Spain in gratitude for the help provided after UNESCO’s global appeal to save the Nubian temples, especially Abu Simbel, which were in danger of disappearing due to the construction of the Aswan Dam.
In this special proposal at the Temple of Debod, we are transported back over two thousand years, as this historic monument is around 2200 years old. A proposal with a lot of history!
A discreet proposal at the Temple of Debod to avoid suspicion
On this occasion, the groom decided to keep everything simple and without decorations to avoid raising any suspicion. His idea was for everything to look like a normal sightseeing tour, so the proposal surprise would be completely unexpected.
The plan was that upon arrival, she would find the photographer and videographer ready to capture the magical moment.
Although we always recommend adding a touch of decoration to make the moment more exciting, such as rose petals, “Marry Me” letters, romantic lights, or any other special detail, in this case, simplicity was key.
Sometimes, less is more, and the authenticity of the surprise made this proposal at the Temple of Debod truly unforgettable.
Nothing more than love in the air and the promise of a future together was needed to make this proposal at the Temple of Debod perfect!
The moment of “Yes, I do”
When they arrived at the location and began being photographed, the bride couldn’t contain her excitement anymore. She realized that the coordinator with the bouquet was there for a special reason. At that moment, the groom knelt down, asked for her hand, and amid tears of happiness and smiles, she said, “Yes, I do.”
The team of photographers and videographers captured every moment of this emotional scene, from the initial surprise to the moment they sealed their commitment. It was a moment full of love and joy, immortalized in images and videos that the couple will cherish forever.
After the “Yes,” flowers, and a stroll
