“Consider this potential scenario,” muses Christine Therien, the hotel’s creative assistant general manager and in-house wedding coordinator. “A romantic couple can begins their stay with a soothing massage, followed by a sunset walk on the beach, where the happy couple discover a beautiful picnic setting for two. What one doesn’t know and the other does is that this isn’t the picnic setting of any Delray Beach visitor but all for just for them! And sitting there, inside a specially wrapped box, is an adorable teddy bear that holds a simple message that says, ‘I have a question to ask you.’ That’s when he goes down on one knee and she blushes with joy. This fabulous evening is then capped off with a candlelit dinner for two at one of Delray Beach’s upscale dining establishments.”

“For anyone wanting to meet that special someone or finally tie the knot, Crane’s Beach House is the perfect place, especially our always popular Tiki Bar. It is open to the public and is the go to spot to stop by for a drink or to listen to live music prior to going out for dinner,” declares Balestriere.

The fabulous part of all this is that Christine Therien is so very experienced at all wedding details, from flowers to music and staging; she can even perform the ceremony itself and has done so numerous times in the past. She’s a master of the memorable romantic moment,” adds Balestriere.

Also included as part of the new Beach House Proposal Package at Crane’s Beach House are a bottle of champagne and glasses, one dozen fresh red roses, a fresh fruit and soft brie platter, and, of course, the squishy-soft teddy bear with the “I have a question to ask you” message.
