About this experience
Some moments deserve more than just a special place — they deserve a timeless setting.
Step aboard Stradivaria, a handcrafted Italian boat designed for intimacy and beauty, and ask the most important question of your life as Rome surrounds you with light, history, and magic.
As you cruise along the Tiber River, the Eternal City becomes your stage: iconic bridges, golden reflections, and the soft notes of background music set the scene. A chilled bottle of Prosecco awaits, and the table is elegantly decorated with candles and flowers. At the perfect moment — under Castel Sant’Angelo or in front of St. Peter’s dome — you’ll pop the question.
Whether you dream of something intimate or scenographic, we’ll help make it flawless. This experience is fully customizable, from live saxophone to a hidden photographer, custom message, or bouquet of roses.
Say Yes to a proposal unlike any other — elegant, private, and truly Roman.
