You've found the person. We'll build the moment. Romantic proposal setups across Columbus — designed, delivered, and cleared away in secret, so all you have to do is ask.
Get a Free QuoteA proposal lasts a few minutes. The photos, the story, and the memory last forever — which is why more couples in Columbus are bringing in a professional to design the moment. Events By Maryam creates complete proposal setups: giant MARRY ME marquee letters, rose-petal pathways lined with candles, flower walls and arches, luxury picnic settings, and intimate indoor scenes styled to the last detail.
We handle the logistics that make surprises hard: coordinating with restaurants, rooftops, parks, and venues; setting up while your partner is distracted; positioning everything for the photographer's angle; and disappearing before the big moment so the scene is yours alone. Planning with a photographer or videographer? We'll coordinate timing directly with them.
Popular Columbus settings we design for include private residences, downtown riverfront views, garden and park settings, restaurant private rooms, and hotel suites transformed into candlelit reveals. Wherever your story started, we can build the scene where the next chapter begins. And when the answer is yes — our engagement party decor team is ready for the celebration that follows.



How much does a proposal setup cost in Columbus?
Proposal setups in Columbus typically range from $350 to $2,000. A classic package with Marry Me letters, rose petals, and candles starts around $350-$600. Premium setups with flower walls, arches, luxury picnic styling, or full room transformations run $800-$2,000. Every package includes setup and discreet takedown.
How far in advance should I book a proposal?
Two to three weeks is ideal, but we've pulled off beautiful proposals with 72 hours' notice. Weekends and holidays (especially Valentine's season and December) book early - reach out as soon as you have a date in mind.
Will you keep the surprise a secret?
Completely. We coordinate through you (or a trusted friend), set up while your partner is away or distracted, and are gone before the moment happens. Discretion is part of the service.
Can you coordinate with my photographer?
Yes - we regularly time setups with photographers and videographers so lighting, angles, and the reveal are all planned. If you need a photographer, we're happy to recommend ones we trust.
Tell us the date, the place, and the person - we'll design the moment they'll say yes in.
