Best Scenic Places to Propose in Perth
You’ve got the ring. You’ve practised kneeling. Memorised your declaration of love.
You’re almost ready for the perfect proposal. All that’s left is choosing the right location, and boy, are you spoilt for choice!
Beautiful white beaches with crystal clear water, a river that twirls through our city suburbs, waterfalls nestled in the Australian bush, an island 30 minutes off the coast that is home to the cutest mammal on earth-the Quokka.
Just like our beaches, it’s clear that us Perthites have been blessed with possibly the most scenic city in the world. With so much beauty comes so many scenic spots to propose. We’ve narrowed it down to our favourite scenic places in Perth to help you plan a picture-perfect proposal.
Cottesloe Beach
Location number #1 on our list of scenic places in Perth is Cottesloe Beach, otherwise known as Cott. Morning, mid-day, sunset- Cottesloe beach never disappoints. The main beach is protected with calm waters, shady Norfolk Pines, and lush green grass.
Come prepared with a picnic and wine.
Gaze upon the Indian ocean, pop the cork and when the wine has settled your nerves, pop the question!
The Boat Shed
If your lover prefers the river, we have the picture-perfect spot.
Quite possibly the most unique and scenic place in Perth to propose, this spot earns one of our top spots.
A timber boardwalk leads to a quaint blue boathouse. First built in the 1930s, this weatherboard boathouse is the perfect backdrop to your proposal.
Carefully take out the ring, we repeat carefully, and take the plunge into the next chapter of your lives!
The C Restaurant
Literal 360⁰ views of the city, The C Restaurant is a revolving restaurant located on the 33rd floor of St Martins Tower. The C restaurant puts the fine in fine dining, and hopefully the yes in your proposal.
Local produce, delicately plated dishes, first-class service, breathtaking city views. This scenic place in Perth is perfect for your proposal.
We guarantee you’ll both be feeling sky-high.
Raeburn Orchards
Our pick for the ultimate fairy tale location, Raeburn Orchards in Roleystone. Hidden in the picturesque Perth hills, this is a scenic place in Perth that was made for marriage proposals.
In February, you’ll find plums, peaches, nectarines, apricots. Visit their store and browse their selection of local products and posies.
Stroll through the orchards and eventually lead them to your secret gourmet picnic. Enjoy some wine, nibbles and pop the question!
We guarantee they will be left s(peach)less.
Matagarup Bridge
There is something special about bridges.
The way they connect two sides, the transition from one place to another.
Sounds a lot like marriage.
What better place to propose your union than at the Metagarup Bridge?
Recently built in 2018, the Metagarup Bridge is a suspension pedestrian bridge connecting Burswood and East Perth.
At night, the bridge and Optus stadium light up, becoming one the most scenic places in Perth. If you are both up for a thrill, and you want to make your proposal extra scenic, the Matagrup Bridge is available for climbing.
Rottnest Island
Located only a short ferry ride from Perth, Rottnest Island is the ultimate romantic proposal location.
For many Perth folk, Rottnest is our happy place.
Featuring soft sandy white beaches, clear blue water, and the happiest animals on earth.
Win their heart over and begin your proposal with ‘I’m quokkas about you’.
Kings Park
Kings Park is one of the most scenic places in Perth to propose.
The park is a mix of grassed parkland, botanical gardens and natural bushlands located next to the Perth CBD. It’s Perth’s version of Central Park, but way better!
Whether you choose to propose on the Fraser Avenue lawns or amongst the wildflowers, you are guaranteed to get a YES!
Lesmurdie Falls
If your special someone prefers hiking to a candlelit dinner, Lesmurdie Falls is the perfect scenic place in Perth to get a rock on their finger.
Located in Mundy Regional Park in the hills east of Perth, Lesmurdie Falls offers spectacular waterfalls and trails.
Bring a picnic and set up next to the waterfall.
We guarantee they will fall head over their hiking boots!
The Hummus Club
We couldn’t resist recommending the Hummus Club as another scenic place in Perth to get down on one knee. Because what’s more scenic than hummus?
The Hummus Club located in the heart of Northbridge serves up authentic Lebanese dishes. With delicious dishes served in a restored heritage building full of local art, you couldn’t ask for a better setting.
Their slogan, ‘In Hummus We Trust’.
They couldn’t be more right, there’s no way your partner is saying no when there is hummus on the table. Trust us, trust them, trust hummus, trust yourself.
You’ve got that ‘yes’ in the bag, or should we say bowl.
Nothing sweetens a proposal more than a selection of gourmet goodies. We offer predesigned hampers and the option to create your own so you can choose all your partners favourites! You’ve decided on the perfect location, now you just need to seal the deal with the perfect hamper.
