How it works

1

Tell us your story

You complete our questionnaire so we can learn about you, your partner, and your relationship. These are the details that make your proposal impossible to copy.

2

We Build your Concept

Michele and Marvin personally brainstorm and design proposal concepts based on your relationship, story, and budget.

3

We Bring it all together

Once you’ve chosen your concept, we source and coordinate the venue, vendors, décor, entertainment, and every detail needed to bring it to life. You approve. We execute.

4

You Show Up & Propose

When the day arrives, everything is in place. You focus on the person you’re about to ask to marry you. We handle everything else.

HOW WE HELP

Your Proposal, Perfectly Planned

Creativity

Anyone can find beautiful marriage proposal ideas on Pinterest. The challenge is creating a proposal that feels like it could only belong to the two of you.

Michele and Marvin look for the details that make your relationship yours – the places, memories, traditions, inside jokes, passions, and moments that mean something to you both- and use them as the starting point for your custom proposal concept.

The goal isn’t for your partner to think, “This is beautiful.” It’s for them to think, “This was made for me.”

Support & Guidance

Getting down on one knee is a vulnerable moment. We know that because we’ve guided thousands of people through it.

Every custom planning client works directly with Michele and Marvin—not a rotating team. We’re there to answer questions, talk through decisions, anticipate what could go wrong, and make sure you’re completely prepared when the moment arrives.

You bring the ring. We’ll make sure you’re ready for everything else.

A great proposal idea is only as good as the way it comes together. We handle the logistics behind your proposal—from finding the right location and sourcing trusted photographers, florists, musicians, and other vendors to coordinating timelines, deliveries, setup, and all the details in between.

Logistics & Execution

You won’t spend weeks researching vendors or trying to coordinate everyone yourself. You have one point of contact: Michele and Marvin. We manage everyone else.

So when it’s time to propose, you’re not wondering whether the flowers arrived or the photographer knows where to hide. You simply show up knowing everything has been handled.

Experience

We Know Where Proposals Go Wrong
So Yours Won’t

16 Years

10,000+ Proposals

After more than 10,000 proposals, we know the details that can make or break the moment. We anticipate problems before they happen, build backup plans where they matter, and know how to pivot when the unexpected happens – so all your partner sees is the magic.

A huge thank you to the Heart Bandits for bringing my proposal to life. I was nervous about planning a proposal in a different country but Marvin, his wife and their team did a fantastic job working with the resort and the vendors. The execution was flawless and my fiance loved everything!! I would strongly recommend them for anyone looking to plan a magical proposal.
