Tier 3, from €1,490 to €3,490: The Grand Show on the Seine

Tier 4, €11,990: The Ultimate Experience, the Drone Aerial Show
One guiding word: 150 drones, one sky, your question. It's the most spectacular experience in our catalogue.

Budget Factors
Beyond the tier chosen, several factors drive the final budget of your marriage proposal:
1. The Location
Central Paris remains the most accessible choice. Experiences in the regions (Chantilly, Marseille, Nice, Cannes, Monaco, Saint-Tropez) involve additional logistics that are reflected in the price.
2. Added Extras
Every experience can be enriched with extras. Here are the real prices from our options catalogue:
- Professional photographer, €250
- Professional videographer, €250
- Professional violinist, €250
- Professional guitarist, €250
- Professional singer, €250
- Bouquet of 50 red rose buds, €79.99
- Bouquet of 100 red rose buds, €149.99
- Giant teddy bears, €79.99
- Professional Day-J coaching, €70
- Assortment of 6 macarons, €29.99
- 45-day gallery extension, €9
3. Day of the Week and Season
Weekends and high season (May to September) are more in-demand. Booking on a weekday or in low season can give you wider availability.
4. Personalization
Some proposals require deep personalization: custom decor, specific message, live music, extra guests. These options add to the base price.
Budget Optimization: Our Tips
1. Choose the Right Tier from the Start
Tier 1 (€390-€790) already covers the essentials: an iconic Parisian backdrop and a photographer. Only move up a tier if you're looking for a specific experience (helicopter, yacht, giant letters).
2. Bundle Extras Smartly
Rather than adding a photographer (€250) + videographer (€250) + musician (€250) = €750 in extras, ask yourself which element matters most. A single live musician or a single videographer may be enough to elevate the moment.
3. Book Early
The best dates go fast. Booking early gives access to more slots and avoids last-minute surcharges.
4. Consider the DIY Box for Very Small Budgets
If your budget is very tight, our DIY Marriage Proposal Boxes are an alternative: Box L'Essentielle at €99 and Box L'Excellence at €199. You manage the proposal yourself with a complete kit, with no on-site service.
5. Think About Referrals
If a friend recommended OuiLove Paris, a referral code can give you an immediate discount on your experience.
