There’s just something about a springtime proposal that feels extra magical. Maybe it’s the fresh blooms, the golden light, or the pure joy of the moment. Whatever it is, Dylan and Emily’s proposal at The Plaza in Kansas City was full of love, surprises, and the sweetest setup you could imagine!

The Setup: A Romantic Surprise Under Twinkling Lights

Dylan had a vision, and he made sure every detail was perfect. I met him early to capture his setup, and let me tell you—it was beautiful. Under a stunning archway, he and some friends and family had strung twinkling lights to add a warm, romantic glow. A soft blanket was laid out, decorated with fresh red and pink flowers, making the perfect backdrop for such a big moment.

Then, the waiting game began.

The Moment Emily Said “Yes!”

Emily arrived at The Plaza with her friends, thinking it was just a normal day. Little did she know, Dylan was already there, waiting for her. As soon as she spotted him, her friends encouraged her to go to him while they stayed back to watch the magic unfold.

When Emily reached him, Dylan wasted no time. He got down on one knee, looked up at the love of his life, and popped the question. And, of course, she said YES! The moment was full of laughter, happy tears, and the kind of joy you can feel through the photographs.

Celebrating with Friends & Family

After the excitement of the proposal, Emily’s friends and family rushed over to celebrate! There were hugs, cheers, and lots of admiring Emily’s new ring. It was one of those moments where time seemed to stand still—just pure happiness surrounding them.

A Romantic Stroll Through The Plaza

With the celebration in full swing, Dylan and Emily took some time to soak it all in. We wandered through The Plaza, capturing moments of them together, freshly engaged and absolutely glowing.

Emily looked effortlessly elegant in a cream/tan knit dress and tan heels, perfectly complementing Dylan’s brown shoes, khakis, and baby blue button-up shirt. And let’s talk about the golden-hour light—it was perfection. The soft glow added the most romantic touch to their photographs, making the whole session feel like a dream.
