The brief
Engagement Parties & Proposals, by Lev Event
A proposal has an audience of one and absolutely no margin for error. We plan the setting, the timing and the cover story, then stay out of sight until the ring is on. Rooftops above downtown, a candlelit beach cove in Malibu, a private room at a favorite restaurant, or the backyard where you first met — we scout it, secure it and dress it.
When the answer is yes, the engagement party follows. We plan everything from an intimate dinner for both families to a full Armenian khosk-kap or nshandreq with music, dancing and a long table under the stars.

From the house
“She said yes on a rooftop with the whole city glowing behind us. I never saw the team once, which is exactly what I asked for.”

Questions
Engagement Parties & Proposals: answered
How do you keep a proposal a secret?
We communicate only with you on a private channel, use a code name for the booking, and brief every vendor to stay out of sight. Your partner never sees our team until the moment is over.
What if the weather changes?
Every outdoor proposal comes with an indoor or covered backup location confirmed in advance, so we can switch the plan quietly on the day.
Can you also plan the engagement party?
Yes, and many clients book both. We can host it the same evening as a surprise or a few weeks later with both families.
