Propose Above The Clouds
Luxury Marriage Proposal Experiences in Brisbane
Take your Brisbane marriage proposal above the ordinary with a private, pilot-designed experience created around your story.
Choose a sunrise journey above Moreton Bay, a golden-hour flight over the Brisbane River and city skyline or an unforgettable escape to Mulgumpin / Moreton Island, with the flight, timing and arrival reception carefully coordinated for you.
The Only Pilot-Designed Proposal Experience
A proposal this important deserves more than a standard package.
Proposals By Plane creates luxury proposal experiences planned with the insight of a commercial pilot. Alexander will take the time to understand your relationship, your ideas and the kind of moment your partner would truly appreciate.
Together, we will shape a personalised journey that brings the flight, timing, surprise and ground arrangements into one carefully coordinated experience.

A Proposal Designed Around Your Story
Personalised From The Ground To The Sky
Your proposal planning may include:
Choosing the right package for your partner
Deciding when and where to ask the question
Creating a believable plan to protect the surprise
Coordinating the flight and ground arrangements
Planning the timing around sunrise or sunset
Organising photography and videography

Incorporating meaningful details from your relationship
Our team handles the behind-the-scenes logistics while you focus on the reason you are there.
No two relationships are the same, so no two Proposals By Plane experiences should feel the same.
Your consultation begins with getting to know you as a couple. We will discuss your story, the atmosphere you want to create and how your partner might imagine their perfect proposal.
You can keep the experience refined and intimate or add thoughtful details that make the moment unmistakably yours.
Capture Every Part Of The Experience
Some moments pass in seconds but deserve to be remembered for a lifetime.
Add professional aerial and ground photography and videography to document the anticipation, the flight, the proposal and the celebration that follows.
Our specialist aviation videographer and photographer, Elliot Staddon, has flown alongside Alexander and understands how to capture the experience safely and discreetly. Elliot and Alexander work together to keep the filming natural, helping protect the surprise until you are ready to ask the question.
Why Choose Proposals By Plane?
Pilot-Designed From The Beginning
Your experience is created with the guidance of Alexander, a commercial pilot and UNSW graduate. Aviation is not added to the package as an afterthought. It is considered throughout the consultation, planning and coordination process.
Flight And Ground Coordination
The journey does not end when the aircraft lands. Our flight and ground arrangements are coordinated as part of one complete experience, including the reception waiting when you return.
Created Around Your Relationship
We don’t place every couple into the same proposal script. Your experience is shaped around your ideas, your partner and the kind of moment you want to share.
Commercially Operated Flights
Flights are provided by fully licensed, CASA-approved AOC holders. Flight routes, manoeuvres and operating decisions remain subject to the approval of the pilot and operator.
