When it comes to secret marriage proposals, New York City and its surrounding gems offer countless picturesque spots. As a professional proposal photographer, I’ve seen love stories unfold against some of the most iconic backdrops. Benny’s recent proposal to Alyssa along Sinatra Drive in Hoboken, NJ, was a heartwarming moment that stood out for its romance and meaning.







Why the Hoboken Waterfront?
Benny knew exactly where he wanted to pop the question. The Hoboken waterfront along Sinatra Drive boasts sweeping views of Manhattan’s skyline, providing a stunning backdrop for any memorable occasion. Beyond the breathtaking scenery, the spot held sentimental value for the couple. It was at the nearby Frank Sinatra statue where Benny and Alyssa met for their very first date.
The choice of this location added an extra layer of significance to the proposal. As Benny explained, “This spot represents where our story began, and I couldn’t think of a better place to start the next chapter of our lives.”
