Untermyer Gardens Proposal

Altaf's proposal at Untermyer Gardens in Yonkers was a well thought out plan with many of his family and friends helping out. They put together a fake surprise birthday party for himself with exquisite detail that Huda never expected it to be her proposal instead!

The park was extremely busy that day as it was peak cherry blossom season and a weekend day. We found a spot that was out of the way from other visitors, picturesque, AND I had a big tree I could hide behind.

I had my husband join us as well, and had him pretend to be the fake-birthday-party planner so that he could lead her to Altaf. After the proposal, we spent the next hour or so taking pictures of the two of them around the beautiful gardens, doing our best to catch moments when no one was in the background (which was impossible so I ended up photoshopping them all out lol).

Untermyer Gardens is a beautiful & popular engagement spot along the Hudson River. A Photo Permit is required. Here is the form and some more information.
