We’ve only had 5 star nights here…but the other night was out of this world, thanks to The Escape Game helping me pull off the best proposal I could’ve dreamed of :)
The staff at The Escape Game went above and beyond for us. I reached out ahead of time because I wanted to incorporate a proposal into one of their rooms, and from the very first message, I felt completely taken care of.
I first spoke with John, who walked me through booking the game and getting everything set up. Then Jacob, one of the managers, stepped in and that’s when the real magic happened. He helped me plan every detail down to a T. We talked through all the possible ways to pop the question, and he helped narrow things down to the perfect, most meaningful moment.
We ended up incorporating a custom clue into the final portion of the room. I gave Jacob the exact line I wanted on the note (“Congratulations! You’ve solved the last puzzle. Now, are you ready to unlock the greatest adventure of all – the rest of your lives together?”), and he created a beautiful, themed card in Canva that fit perfectly into the room’s aesthetic.
And the best part? Jacob kept the surprise so well that when we arrived, I wasn’t even sure he remembered what was about to happen…he was that good at playing it cool. The moment came, I got down on one knee, and she said yes. He gave us space to have our moment before coming in to congratulate us and take pictures.
Even though The Escape Game can’t provide or sell footage from their cameras, Jacob went out of his way to film the control-room monitors and sent me a video from all four angles so we could relive the moment. That meant more to us than he knows.
We already loved this place… but now it’s forever a part of our story.
Thank you, Jacob, and thank you to the entire team for helping me pull off one of the best days of my life.
