What to Expect from the Megalong Creek Estate Proposal Experience

Your Blue Mountains proposal begins at Sydney Airport, where you and your partner will step aboard a private helicopter, setting the tone for a day filled with romance and excitement.

From the first moment the rotors start turning, the experience feels magical, with your partner believing this is just a scenic helicopter tour to a beautiful vineyard. The surprise is perfectly preserved until the time is right, making sure your partner has no idea that this day will change your lives forever.

As the helicopter takes off, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of Sydney Harbour, with its iconic landmarks like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge coming into full view.

This first leg of the journey provides for Amazing arial photo opportunities, allowing you to capture moments of a day that's bound to be more special than your partner could ever anticipate. The sparkling waters of the harbour and the city skyline fade away as your flight heads westward toward the majestic Blue Mountains.

As you approach the Blue Mountains, the scene turns into an awe-inspiring setting. Rugged sandstone cliffs, deep gorges, and vast eucalyptus forests stretch as far as the eye can see.

These forests produce the famous blue haze that gives the mountains their name, caused by droplets of eucalyptus oil refracting light in the atmosphere. The beauty of the Blue Mountains from above is unlike anything you’ll ever experience on the ground, making this moment feel truly extraordinary, setting the stage for that special surprise proposal in the heart of the Blue Mountains.

The helicopter’s climate-controlled cabin and noise-canceling headphones keep you comfortable and allow you to learn interesting facts from the expert pilot, while ensuring that your partner stays distracted, so they won't know what's coming.

This intimate atmosphere allows you to take in the full beauty of the Blue Mountains together, all while maintaining the secrecy of your upcoming proposal.

When your helicopter touches down at Megalong Creek Estate, a gleaming vintage Ford Mustang awaits, a ride almost as spectacular as the helicopter itself.

The roar of the engine and the timeless charm of the Mustang create an unforgettable moment as you’re chauffeured to your private gazebo. Your partner will still believe this is all part of the scenic day trip, with no clue about the life-changing question you’re about to ask.

The private gazebo, set against the backdrop of the Megalong Valley’s vineyards and towering escarpments, is beautifully decorated to create a romantic and intimate setting.

Fresh flowers, a grazing platter brimming with artisanal cheeses, and glasses of Megalong Creek Estate’s premium single-vineyard wines await you and your soon-to-be. The attention to detail in every element, from the decor to the locally sourced delights, ensures that this moment feels as special and unique as humanly possible.

Now comes the moment you’ve been waiting for. As your partner takes in the beauty of the mountains, you’ll reveal the true purpose of the day by getting down on one knee and asking the question that will change both of your lives forever. The gazebo provides for complete privacy, allowing you to fully savour this deeply personal moment without any distractions.

After the magical proposal, you’ll have time to relax and celebrate together, enjoying the wine and cheese platter while taking in the breathtaking views. The joy and emotion of the moment are perfectly complemented by the serene nature of the Megalong Valley, making this a memory you’ll both treasure forever.

When it’s time to leave, the vintage Mustang will take you back to the helicopter, where your pilot will be waiting for a relaxing flight back to Sydney. With your partner by your side, now your fiancé, the flight feels like the perfect conclusion to an extraordinary experience.

From start to finish, the Megalong Creek Estate proposal experience is designed to be seamless, romantic, and unforgettable. Rotor One handles every detail to ensure your day is stress-free and magical, allowing you to focus on what truly matters: celebrating your love and beginning the next chapter of your lives together.

About Megalong Creek Estate

Found in the scenic Megalong Valley in the Blue Mountains, Megalong Creek Estate Vineyard is a unique setting for wine lovers and those looking to create special memories, such as for a proposal. The name Megalong Valley is derived from an Aboriginal word believed to mean Valley Under The Rock, a fitting description for this breathtaking location with a towering sandstone escarpment backdrop and lush valley views.

Established in 2002, this family-owned vineyard is dedicated to producing quality single vineyard wines that truly capture the essence of the Blue Mountains.

The estate takes pride in its single vineyard approach, meaning every grape in their wines is grown on-site, preserving the distinctive terroir of the region. Factors like soil, slope, and the valley's microclimate influence the flavour profile of each wine, resulting in a local product that’s both authentic and unique to the Blue Mountains.

Grapes are hand-picked and transported to Mudgee, where the highly regarded third-generation wine maker Jacob Stein, of Robert Stein Wines, crafts each bottle. As skilled wine maker, Jacob Stein’s expertise brings depth and character to Megalong Creek Estate’s tantalizing varietals.

Wine enthusiasts will find a curated selection of Viognier, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, and Shiraz, along with newer plantings of Pinot, Grenache, and Mourvèdre added in 2018.

The estate also offers a lightly sparked Prosecco style wine, aptly named "Prozzante," as well as a late-harvest dessert wine for those who enjoy a touch of sweetness. Visitors to the temporary cellar door can sample these wines while taking in the serene landscape, often accompanied by the sight of alpacas grazing nearby.
