Thinking about popping the question this fall? Fall is proposal season in the Okanagan. The air cools, the sunsets turn golden, and vineyards heavy with grapes create a backdrop that feels like pure romance.

At Pickadilly’s, we believe a proposal should feel effortless for you—because we handle every detail. From scouting the perfect setting to styling the backdrop with florals, candles, and petals, we transform the Okanagan into your love story.

🍇 Why the Fall in the Okanagan Is Ideal for Proposals

Golden Light: Earlier sunsets (7:30 pm in early September, 6:30 pm by month’s end) mean dreamy golden-hour photos.
Perfect Weather: Warm days, cooler nights, and fewer wildfire interruptions.
Harvest Romance: Vineyards are alive with grapes, giving your moment a cinematic feel.
Privacy: With summer tourists gone, you’ll find more space for intimacy.

🌅 Where to Propose in the Okanagan

Instead of narrowing you down to one “top spot,” we help you choose from settings that reflect your story. Each location type brings its own kind of magic:

1. Vineyards

There’s nothing more Okanagan than saying yes surrounded by rolling vines at harvest. Vineyards radiate timeless elegance, and paired with our floral pillars or candle-lit aisle, they become straight out of a movie.

2. Beachfronts

For couples who love the water, a sandy shore at golden hour creates a relaxed, intimate atmosphere. We line the space with candles and petals so your private cove feels like a scene designed just for you.

3. Docks & Lakeside

Docks bring a sense of adventure and drama—whether it’s at a resort or tucked into a hidden bay. Imagine walking your partner down a lantern-lit dock, with the Okanagan sunset mirrored in the water.

4. Winery Terraces

If you dream of sophistication, winery terraces combine architecture, sweeping views, and vineyard charm. We add statement backdrops—like our oversized heart or floral pillars—to frame the view and elevate the moment.

5. Lookouts

For the couple who loves big, cinematic gestures, a lookout point offers sweeping views of the lake and city. Add candles, a champagne toast, and a private photographer, and you have a scene that feels larger than life.

6. Private Airbnbs

Want to keep it completely personal? Private Airbnbs let us transform a patio, garden, or lakeside deck into a proposal stage. It’s ideal if you want a cozy overnight stay paired with your big moment.
