Couples can create a truly memorable marriage proposal experience with tailor-made packages from the UAE’s premier proposal planning company
As part of its continuing commitment to help new businesses through SME RISE COLLECTIVE, Market Buzz is working with The Big Proposals to shine a light on a new segment in the luxury wedding sector – the marriage proposal.
The Big Proposals is a Dubai-based events company specialising in organising high-end marriage proposals and romantic occasions with a selection of pre-designed proposal packages as well as tailor-made packages curated exclusively for each couple starting from AED10,000. Launched in September 2019 by seasoned destination wedding specialists, Rhiannon Downie-Hurst and Tasneem Alibhai, The Big Proposals has become the region’s premier proposal planning service with a range of bespoke, memorable experiences for couples to announce and celebrate one of life’s most important and romantic milestones — their engagement.
The duo has successfully helped many men get down on bended knee and ask their future wives to marry them, with a curated selection of unique proposal packages and creative event concepts. The company’s aim is to make dreams come true, with lavish settings organised at the most exclusive venues, for a truly unforgettable proposal.
“At The Big Proposals, we are excited about the possibilities that lie ahead and we are fully prepared to cater to our clients’ needs during the times of COVID-19 and beyond,” says co-founder Rhiannon Downie-Hurst. “We are prepared to go the extra mile for our clients, testing ourselves and the team for the virus prior to any event setups, for example. We wear masks and gloves for every setup and ensure that all of our in-house items are fully sanitised. We have also recently designed and created some exciting new ‘At Home’ proposal concepts and we can’t wait to plan these for clients in the near future.”
From proposing onboard a luxurious yacht to an exclusive private cinema screening, within the sanctuary of a ‘secret’ room at a fine dining restaurant, or at an intimate candlelit dinner on a pristine beach, The Big Proposals provides exceptional tailor-made experiences at a variety of high-end, glamorous venues.
“The Big Proposals only works with licensed and high-quality suppliers, and we pride ourselves on offering sought-after and iconic proposal locations, as well as exclusive, hidden gems,” adds Rhiannon. “Every single one of our proposals has a unique touch and we have never planned the same proposal twice.”
Rhiannon and Tasneem consult with each client meticulously, to discover the couple’s own inimitable personal story, their likes and dislikes, and the aspirations of the fiancée to make the proposal even more special. Many clients have come from overseas, and include Australian, Chinese and British-Indian holidaymakers. Every detail can be arranged over the phone, so the only thing the future groom needs to worry about is his nerves.
