How sweet it is to be loved by you

From the moment they say “Yes” to the day you say “I do,” we’re here to make every detail unforgettable. Let us help you create the perfect setting for your proposal or wedding—because these are the moments that deserve to be truly extraordinary.

Whether it’s at a captivating outlook on the mountains of Birkenhead or nestled below Mt. Currie in the Pemberton valley, your proposal or elopement ceremony will be truly unforgettable when you plan it with CCO.

Surprise Engagement Proposal By Horseback

Surprise your loved one on a romantic horseback ride in the mountains. We'll help you keep the secret right until the last moment and can even help you arrange an incredible engagement photoshoot for when you pop the question.

Afterward, celebrate your future together with champagne and a gourmet picnic lunch, served by your guide. There will be plenty of time for photographs and merriment before it's time to return on horseback to the valley floor.
