'It's like a proposal drive thru': Onlooker denounces queue of proposal setups at Eiffel Tower viewpoint

If there is one thing that social media is very good at, it is making people feel like they are inferior unless they create a performance out of all the most impressive aspects of their lives. Another thing that it is very good at is giving everybody the same, repetitive idea on how to do this. Add to the mixture the hype that surrounds getting married, and you have a guaranteed recipe for oversaturation.

Many of those who want to get married place a lot of importance on the proposal. After all, it is the first step in a process that is supposed to last the rest of their lives. As a result, it is not uncommon for fiancés-to-be to organize a lavish setup in order to pop the question. Often, having a special destination to do it in is one of the most important parts of the whole thing.

  • Paris was the city of love long before the internet came along, but a recent video has shown that the 21st century has sent that reputation into overdrive. A TikToker filmed a long line of photography sets for proposals arranged along an Eiffel Tower viewpoint beside the Seine River, claiming it was their “biggest fear” to be proposed to in Paris.

    It is fair to say that viewers found this unglamorous look behind the scenes amusing, with many wondering why so many people were set on this idea for a proposal. If nothing else, there are plenty of other romantic places in the capital of France.

  • USER80247 public proposals are my worst nightmare, when my husband proposed he did it on a secluded cliff top in North Wales on a rainy day and as soon as he got on one knee a couple turned the corner and cheered he was gutted as he tried so hard for NOONE else to be around
