Marriage proposal at Chateau Neercanne: capturing the perfect moment

A romantic surprise proposal in Maastricht

For weeks, this man had been planning the perfect marriage proposal, coordinating every detail to ensure it would be a memorable moment for his girlfriend. We had several conversations, discussing and changing locations along the way. Initially, he had envisioned proposing on the sandy plains of Brunssummerheide, but later opted for Mondo Verde in Landgraaf. However, due to the size of the location and the presence of a violinist, it became too complicated to coordinate, so we decided on a proposal at Castle de Hoogenweerth. But as luck would have it, there was a wedding scheduled there that same Friday.

Chateau Neercanne: the perfect location for a proposal

The violinist then suggested Chateau Neercanne in Maastricht as an ideal alternative. Since we wouldn’t have a chance to meet beforehand, everything had to go perfectly from the start. The proposal had to be captured at just the right moment. I sent him a sample picture of a couple on the terrace of the castle overlooking the beautiful landscape to help him visualize the setting.

The plan was simple: The violinist and I would wait at the terrace, and when the couple arrived, he would start playing. As they enjoyed the view, he would propose, and I would be ready to capture the moment. And that’s exactly how it unfolded! It was an emotional and ecstatic moment for the couple, full of happiness and excitement. I stayed hidden behind a bar, waiting for the right moment, only revealing myself once they had come outside.

Champagne and memories at Chateau Neercanne

After the proposal, the couple toasted with champagne, and we captured a few more beautiful photos around the stunning grounds of Chateau Neercanne. Once the photos were done, I rushed back home to finish editing 3 photos that I needed to send to a photo shop in Heerlen, where he would surprise her with the prints during their dinner.
