Mont St Michel Proposal Locations – The Bridge

Here are the details of where and how we surprised your loved one with their proposal at the Mont St Michel.

If you’re coming from the car parks:

Catch the free shuttle bus to the Mont from the bus stop just near the car parks. In the middle of the day, especially in the summer months, you may have to queue for the shuttle. They do run every ten minutes but it can take a while.

 

When you get off the bus, (turn right, not left, to walk away from the Mont) suggest to your girlfriend that you come away from the Mont a little to take some pictures.

 

 

If you’re coming from the island:

If you’re already on the island before our meeting time, then it’s really easy. Walk away from the island onto the bridge (perhaps suggesting that you get some good photos on the bridge).

The Surprise

 

When you’re walking away from the Mont (from the bus or the island) I will be standing on the left side (The narrower walkway)

I’ll be there pretending to take photos of the Mont or even pretending to talk to someone on my phone. Lets make eye contact and then come quite close to me Ideally you’ll be only about 10 metres/yards in front of me.

Make sure you stop in a position where there aren’t people near you at all, as we don’t want them behind you in your photos.

When you chose your position, I’ll adjust mine to get a good angle. If you can, try and have your back a little towards me so I can see her face.

 

Then it’s up to you, just go for it. Try not to wait too long so she doesn’t have too much time to spot me.

Proposal Tips

 

  • Don’t forget to disactivate message notifcations on your lock screen in case we need to message
  • Try not to bring too much stuff with you. Avoid bags, bottles and anything unnecessary.
  • If you want to get dressed up, tell her you’ve booked a post restaurant.
  • Suggest taking a picture of her looking at the Mont. This will give you a few seconds to get the ring and get down on bended knee.
  • Try and turn your back a little towards me to be sure that I can see her face and capture her reaction.

 

Take a deep breath and ENJOY; This is YOUR MOMENT
