What is Chapel Proposal?
A chapel proposal is when you propose in a chapel that was actually made for the wedding ceremony.
There are not only wedding halls but also hotels, where you can propose on a sacred and luxurious stage.
In many cases, you can also enjoy lunch or dinner at a restaurant along with the proposal.
Therefore, it is a recommended proposal for those who want to make a richer proposal..
Why a Chapel Proposal Is Recommended
Many people may be reluctant to propose to a chapel, saying, “I feel uncomfortable to go out of my way to propose by renting a chapel.”
However, the chapel proposal has various merits such as being able to propose without worrying about a glance.
Here are three big benefits.
Increase the atmosphere of the proposal
One of the merits of chapel proposal is that you can create a sacred and solemn atmosphere surrounded by gorgeous stained glass and lighting because you can use the situation used for weddings as it is.
You can make a serious proposal while showing a different side of yourself, so you should be able to impress your partner.
It also looks great in photos, so it is also recommended when you want to capture the proposal scene in photos or videos.
It is wonderful to hold a wedding ceremony in the same chapel as the proposal.
Get Support
In general, when you propose at a chapel, chapel staff often support you.
When you propose, you can wait in the chapel first, and the staff will naturally bring you to the chapel.
It’s hard to think and execute a chapel proposal by yourself, but you can propose with support, so you should be able to face the proposal with peace of mind.
I don’t care about the eyes around me
The chapel proposal is basically reserved.
Therefore, one of the merits is that you can propose without worrying about the eyes around you.
In situations where there are people around, such as in a restaurant, it takes a lot of courage to say the words of a proposal.
However, in a chapel with just the two of you, you will be able to convey your sincere feelings of thinking only about the other person.
About the chapel proposal Q&A
“I want to know how much it costs to rent a chapel.”
“I want to know what is necessary to prepare for the chapel proposal.”
Here are some frequently asked questions and answers about chapel proposals like the one above.
How much does a chapel proposal cost?
The cost of a chapel proposal, including the charter of the chapel, meeting with the staff, and taking a commemorative photo after the proposal, is about 20,000 to 100,000 yen.
Popular chapels and famous chapels are expensive, and even the same chapel may have different costs depending on the plan.
Chapels with restaurants may also include a dinner fee.
What is the flow of the chapel proposal?
If you plan to propose as soon as you arrive at the chapel, there is a possibility that the other party will realize your proposal when you arrive.
For this reason, many people have dinner at a restaurant first, and then naturally move to the chapel to propose.
As an example, a man leaves his seat when he finishes eating dessert and waits in the chapel.
After that, the staff guides the women to the chapel where they propose.
You can take your partner out to say, “Let’s go out to eat at a nice restaurant,” so it’s also recommended when you want to make a surprise proposal.
Are you ready for the chapel proposal?
What kind of preparations are necessary before proposing at the chapel?
First, you need to reserve a venue.
Choose the chapel you want to propose to and check if the desired time is available.
Depending on the chapel, the color of the virgin road, the atmosphere of the decoration, the night view that can be seen nearby, etc. will differ, so it is recommended to choose based on the preferences of the other party.
Reservations for the chapel tend to fill up in June when wedding ceremonies are held to coincide with June Bride and Christmas when the city is lit up with illuminations, so early reservations are recommended.
After the venue is reserved, we will have a meeting with the staff and a preliminary inspection of the venue.
It is safe to discuss details such as the timing of entering the venue and whether or not to change clothes.
Some chapels allow you to change clothes before you propose.
It would be a good idea to make arrangements in advance so that you can propose while dressed up.
One way to do this is to tell the other party what kind of clothes you want, such as “I want to eat at a nice restaurant, so I want you to dress up.”
Tips for a successful chapel proposal
Finally, here are three tips for a successful chapel proposal.
Choose the timing of the proposal
Choosing the right timing is important in any proposal, not just in the chapel.
For example, if you propose when your partner is busy with a new job, they may say, “It’s a bit difficult to think about right now.”
On the other hand, even though more and more people around you are getting married, if you haven’t been proposed yet, you may be worried about when you will propose.
It is recommended that you choose the timing of the proposal considering each other’s work situation, private situation, etc.
It is also important to decide on a schedule, such as whether to propose on an anniversary, Christmas, etc., or on an ordinary day.
Please note that dates may also be subject to chapel availability.
Start preparing 1-2 months in advance
Proposals at the chapel include preliminary inspections of the venue and meetings, so it is recommended to start preparations early.
Start preparing at least 1-2 months in advance.
If you want to propose at a popular chapel or want to prepare carefully, it is safe to start preparing six months to three months in advance.
Talk to a Proposal Planner
There are two ways to prepare for a chapel proposal: one is to ask the chapel yourself and proceed with the preparations, and the other is to ask a contractor called a proposal planner to arrange the proposal.
If you ask a proposal planner, the planner will communicate with the chapel, so you can proceed smoothly with the preparations.
Also, you will be able to get better proposal ideas unique to planners who have supported numerous proposals.
If you find it difficult to ask the chapel yourself, it is recommended to have a planner intervene.
Prepare a Present
Presents are indispensable to enhance the presentation of the proposal and to make the other party happy.
Prepare gifts that are perfect for the proposal, such as bouquets and rings.
Summary
The chapel proposal is recommended for those who want to convey their serious feelings with a proposal.
