The Best Places to Propose in Seattle

Seattle rewards a clear day with mountains, water, and the skyline all at once. Watch the forecast and grab the window when Rainier is out.

Best time: A clear summer evening when Mount Rainier is out.

Kerry Park

The small overlook on Queen Anne is the postcard shot, the skyline and the Space Needle with Mount Rainier behind on a clear day.

Gas Works Park

The grassy hill looks across Lake Union at downtown, a favorite for kite-flying and low-key asks.

Pike Place Market

The original neon sign and the waterfront below make a lively, only-in-Seattle backdrop.

Discovery Park

The bluff trail ends at a lighthouse over Puget Sound if you want quiet and open water.

Want the moment captured?
