You arrive at the Champ de Mars and the Iron Lady fills the skyline: steel lattice catching late light while the Seine murmurs nearby. A small setup waits—flowers, candles, a violinist tuning—but the moment still belongs to you. The city moves around the scene, but for a short hour Paris compresses into a focused, cinematic frame.

Confirm transport access
Use Metro line 6 (Bir-Hakeim/Chaus-de-Gare) or RER C (Champ de Mars) and alert the coordinator to any mobility needs.
Pack light layers
Even warm days can cool quickly near the Seine; bring a light jacket for comfort during photos and after the proposal.

Share music choice, champagne preferences, and any surprise logistics with the organizer at least 48 hours ahead.
Smartphone or mirrorless camera

Comfortable shoes
Expect short walks across paved paths and occasional grass; comfortable footwear speeds movement.
