Proposing to the one you love is often hailed as the pinnacle of romance, but it also comes with its fair share of stress and pressure. Traditionally, men have taken the lead in proposing, with only about 16% of women seizing the opportunity to pop the question. But Delilah decided to flip the script, and in doing so, she created a heartwarming and unforgettable experience for herself and her partner, Adam, all with the help of Chef and Griddle.
Delilah had been in a loving relationship with Adam for a number of years, and she knew that he would never expect her to propose. So, she hatched a plan to surprise him in the most unexpected and heartwarming way.
Delilah planned an event that she cleverly disguised as an overdue house-warming party, a gathering the couple had been talking about for ages. However, behind the scenes, she had been working with Chef and Griddle to create an unforgettable experience.
Setting the scene, the client adorned her back garden with enchanting fairy lights, flickering candles, and delicate rose petals, creating an ambience of pure romance – the perfect setting for a surprise proposal!
As friends and family gathered, under the pretence of attending a regular housewarming party, the anticipation was palpable. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, conversations, and the clinking of glasses as drinks and food flowed seamlessly.
Chef and Griddle’s BBQ menu, which featured an array of sumptuous dishes, including handmade British beef burgers, succulent gourmet sausages, flavourful chicken kebabs, and marinated spareribs, was an instant hit with the group. We also delighted plant-based guests with veggie burgers and vegetarian sausages, which paired beautifully with the inclusive selection of sides, such as Greek salad, pasta salad, and freshly made chips.
Then, the moment arrived. Delilah, with a heart full of love and courage, made a stunning announcement that captured everyone’s attention. As she bent the knee and presented the ring, gasps of surprise and joy echoed through the air. Adam’s expression was a wonderful mix of astonishment and happiness, and his immediate and heartfelt “yes!” filled the space with jubilation.
The surprise proposal was undoubtedly the highlight of the evening, but there was another star that played a crucial role in making the celebration unforgettable: Chef and Griddle. We were there to ensure that everyone was well-fed throughout the evening, and guests couldn’t get enough of our flavourful banquet.
