When Isaiah reached out to begin planning his proposal to Jilian, I was ecstatic. From the very first conversation, it was clear how much he cared about creating a moment that felt thoughtful, intimate, and entirely her. I presented a few ideas to help shape the day, and he chose a picture-perfect setup at Milly’s Wine Bar featuring muted tones, soft florals, and romantic balloons. The design was subtle and elegant, setting the perfect stage for the moment they would remember forever.

Jilian was convinced the proposal was still weeks away and refused to paint her nails, despite the efforts of several friends who tried to hint otherwise. The surprise made the moment even sweeter. After she said yes, their closest friends arrived to celebrate over beautiful small plates and glasses raised in their honor. Later that evening, the couple headed to Café Lurcat for a private dinner filled with joy and everything that makes a proposal unforgettable.

Hinton Studios captured the entire event with the kind of care and clarity that made every detail shine. It was such an honor to play a part in this beautiful beginning.
