The Grand Canal Proposal
Fascia di prezzo: da 3.900,00 € a 4.500,00 €

Descrizione
The Experience
Venice has thousands of romantic corners, but only a handful of rooftops — and this one crowns a national monument on the Grand Canal. Your evening begins on the water, by private taxi or gondola, and continues up the palazzo’s monumental staircase, marble step after marble step, to a rooftop that few Venetians have ever seen. There, among the florals, with the canal glittering below and the city’s bell towers all around, you ask. The artisan bouquet appears for your fiancée, champagne is poured, and a gourmet aperitivo stretches the moment while the light changes over the rooftops. The return taxi glides you back along the canal — engaged. The Kiss Me Italy Concierge choreographs every step in complete secrecy.
The Setting: a Rooftop over the Grand Canal
The rooftop belongs to a 15th-century palazzo classified as a national monument, moored directly on the Grand Canal near the Rialto bend. Access is by the palazzo’s monumental staircase — a cinematic ascent past frescoes and marble — and the terrace opens 360° over the canal, the domes and the terracotta rooftops: the rarest proposal stage in Venice.

Gareth Pembroke –
From the outside, it’s “just” a rooftop. Then you get there, and you understand why it’s so special. The view is extraordinary, but what I’ll remember most is the feeling of complete privacy. In a city full of people, we were able to experience one of the most important moments of our lives as if we were completely alone.
