What Couples Are Saying
“I wanted the proposal to be perfect, and the team made it completely stress-free. Since it was my first visit to the Hamptons and I’m not from the area, their guidance was invaluable—from timing and local recommendations to having the Marketing Manager pretend to be a hostess and lead us to the surprise spot. After the proposal, they helped coordinate a surprise with her family, set up a private dinner with them, and then prepared our room with rose petals, candles, and dessert to end the night. Every detail was handled so smoothly—it made the whole experience effortless and special.”
Setting the Scene: A Winter Proposal at Canoe
Arrival and Preparation – Check in early and settle into your room. Step out for the day while our team prepares the proposal area with thoughtful touches—candles, florals, and sparkling wine—so everything is ready for the perfect moment.
Wölffer Estate Vineyard – Begin the day with a visit to Wölffer Estate Vineyard, where the quiet charm of the estate and its rolling winter vines evoke the warmth and romance of Tuscany. Rustic-chic tasting rooms and peaceful vineyard paths create a serene, elegant atmosphere, perfect for savoring seasonal wines and enjoying a quintessential East End experience.
Lunch and Stroll in Sag Harbor – Pause for a cozy lunch at the American Hotel, a historic Sag Harbor landmark known for its warm, inviting atmosphere and classic East End charm. Seasonal dishes feature fresh, locally sourced ingredients, perfect for a relaxing midday break. After lunch, enjoy a leisurely stroll through Sag Harbor’s charming boutiques and specialty shops, soaking in the village’s character before returning to Canoe Place Inn for the proposal.
The Proposal – Lead your partner to The Study, Canoe Place Inn’s intimate fireside space. Candlelight, elegant décor, and the warmth of the fireplace create a private, romantic setting for your engagement. Photography captures every genuine reaction, making the moment timeless.
Family Surprise and Dinner – After the proposal, the team helps coordinate a surprise with the family. Celebrate with an intimate dinner either in The Study or at Good Ground Tavern, both offering warm, inviting spaces and thoughtful attention for a personalized, effortless experience.
