Well, that’s definitely the most romantic city in the world, don’t you think so? That’s an unarguable statement: how to resist to a marriage proposal taking place right in the middle of Saint Mark’s Square lit at night or on board of a gondola sailing through an off beaten canal while a gondolier sings a love song? Let’s not mention how tricky can be sunsets at the Zattere – one of Venice’s largest embankments – or right at the end of Rio di Cannaregio, with a candlelight romantic dinner to follow in one of the little restaurants on Fondamenta della Misericordia

Here is a nice romantic plan: a bottle of French wine and some fromage and baguette for an evening picnic right on the Seine, to be followed by a walk on the Ile de la Cité, surrounded by Notre Dame, la Sainte Chapel and La Conciergerie. Paris needs no introduction since it has always been the most perfect European capital for a romantic holiday and for grand style marriage or engagement proposal; one of Paris’s most romantic places to check out with your sweetie is Pont de Arts, a pedestrian wooden bridge which crosses the Seine over and links to the Louvre Museum; nobody could say no to a marriage proposal with such a setting .Oh, don’t forget to leave a Love Lock afterwards!
Prague seems as well to have been designed to be a top romantic destination since it ticks all the boxes; it’s has a river, the Vlatava, crossed over by the picturesque pedestrian Charles Bridge, Karlův most: they altogether provide just and unbeatable 360-degree backdrop for a romantic atmosphere. Not to mention the narrow cobblestoned alleys throughout the city, the spires, the tram lines and the Prague Castle, more landmarks which makes this city just a unique romantic escape
