Some proposals feel like pure magic — and Owen’s surprise for Olivia was exactly that.
On a warm August evening, Middleton Place was glowing in the softest golden light. Owen had carefully planned every detail of this unforgettable moment. He chose a quiet, romantic spot near the Chapel, tucked between the historic house and the reflecting pond — a beautiful location surrounded by nature and history.




But the most special touch? Owen brought in glowing “Marry Me” marquee letters, creating a picture-perfect scene for the big question. As Olivia arrived, completely surprised, the golden light and peaceful garden setting made everything feel like it paused just for them.
And just when Olivia thought the surprise was over — both of their families stepped out to join them! Happy tears, big hugs, and so much joy filled this little corner of Middleton Place.
This proposal had everything: love, laughter, family, and a sunset that couldn’t have been timed more perfectly.





Why This Spot at Middleton Place Was So Special
Middleton Place offers endless beautiful locations for a proposal, but I absolutely love this quiet area near the Chapel. It feels private, intimate, and peaceful — perfect for a moment as meaningful as a proposal. Add in sunset light and a view of the pond, and it truly becomes unforgettable.
