A Serene Santorini Sunset Proposal: Sean & Chris’s Tailor-Made Rooftop Proposal

Our journey with Sean began when he reached out to us from Toronto, determined to create a one-of-a-kind surprise proposal for his partner, Chris, during their stay in Santorini. From our very first conversation, Sean’s heartfelt vision shined. He dreamed of something intimate, elegant, and deeply personal. Some stories are simply meant to unfold, and this one was written in the stars.

On a warm Santorini afternoon, Sean’s dream came to life in all its glory: a private rooftop overlooking the caldera, aglow with flickering candles and bathed in golden sunset light. The atmosphere was minimalist yet undeniably romantic, reflecting the couple’s timeless style and effortless sophistication. Every element, from the bespoke candlelight setup and curated playlist to the chilled champagne waiting to celebrate, was flawlessly orchestrated to capture the essence of their love.

A professional photographer discreetly documented every emotion: their laughter, happy tears, and quiet moments of awe as the Aegean shimmered below. The proposal was tasteful, authentic, and simply enchanting, and captured in editorial style, exactly as Sean had imagined.

“Working with Emily and the team at MILI-LO to plan our engagement in Santorini was an absolute dream. From the very beginning, her communication and coordination were flawless and she made the entire process seamless and stress-free. Emily brought incredible creativity to every detail, and her execution on the day itself was nothing short of perfect… Our special day turned out even more magical than we could have imagined.” — Sean Delsnider

Working with Sean was a reminder that the most beautiful proposals begin with intention and heart. Every decision he made was guided by love and his desire to make Chris feel seen, cherished, and loved. For us, it was an honor to translate that devotion into an experience that breathed intimacy, sincerity, and quiet grandeur, curated with care and soul.

Their story also speaks to the universality of love, its authenticity, and truth. At MILI LO, we’re honored to craft same-sex proposals that celebrate individuality while capturing the shared language of love in its most wholesome expression.
