Proposal Itinerary:
Finding Romance in Boston

Romantic, elegant and comfortable, the Hungry I is known as much for their French gourmet food as they are for their setting. Romance oozes from this quaint 1840s restored brownstone that has been in operation for decades and still maintains the prestige it earned years ago. A seat in one of the three small dining rooms ensures an intimate experience, with the mood set by the gentle crackle of the fireplace and the glow from the candles at your table.

This all-encompassing spa of modern elegance, health, and wellness has been one of Boston’s most luxuriously indulgent go-to’s for over a decade. One can relax in the Penthouse Lounge and Terrace or soak in the Skylight Hot Tub after a treatment. Beyond Reiki and Guided Virtual Meditation, as well as halotherapy in the comfort of an alluring salt cave, the G20 Spa now also features a brine inhalation therapy room, where guests can relax in chaise lounges around a marble waterfall and concentrate on releasing stress, improving circulation and promoting holistic balance and healing.

Neil Morris Fragrances’ oil ‘mixologist’ Neil Morris creates fragrances the old-fashioned way, and works with clients by translating their happiest memories into a scent. Make an appointment for a session at his studio, where Morris will select from a library of more than 700 different essential and perfume oils to customize a fragrance to your preferences and specifications. These perfumes appeal to a wide audience and, like all of his scents, are enjoyed by men and women alike.

This ravishingly rich fine-dining experience evokes the nostalgia of the 20s and 50s and is located in the space formerly occupied by Lacke-Ober for 150 years. The restaurant delivers excellent cuisine in an over-the-top, golden-lit space that checks all the boxes for luxe, affluent foodies. Snuggle your lover tight next to the original fireplace, which dates back to 1832, and enjoy the ambience of the lounge, library and supper clubrooms. The menu is divided into ‘Snacks, Social Plates, and Feasts,” in the Boston style of high spirits. Bonus Tip: Grab a drink with your loved one in the Library Room, which is decked out in gold marble flooring and chandeliers.

Your partner will melt for the views from the Top of the Hub, which is situated 52 floors above Boston’s Back Bay. From the romantic patio balcony, to award-winning wines, excellent cuisine and the sights of a dazzling skyline, the upscale lounge has long attracted those looking for the most rewarding combination of ambience and service—which they deliver alongside live jazz.

This lovely grassy area along Boston’s waterfront is the city’s first park, and includes “the most kissable spot” complete with a wisteria trellis and shady walkway. This beautiful combination of trees, foliage, garden, and flowers along the northern end of city make it a perfect location for an intimate picnic and romantic proposal.

This museum is a unique destination in Boston, home to works of art collected around the most romantic courtyard of a 15th century Venetian palazzo. The Gardner’s facades reflect the soft light in muted tones that often resemble reflections on water—as one might see in Venice. The lush gardens and bright exotic flowers in the center of this Boston gem will take your love’s breath away, and serve as the perfect backdrop to pop the question after a stroll through the museum. Celebrate afterwards with a nice glass of wine at the museum’s Renzo Piano-designed Cafe G.

There is no better way to experience the romantic beauty of Boston’s Harbor than the Harborwalk. Stretching for 43 miles, the walk traverses eight neighborhoods through a maze of connected waterfronts, verdant gardens, and sandy coves, each designed as a unique piece of a greater whole. Showcasing the sights and skyline of New England’s largest city, it’s the perfect place to propose to your one and only.
