If you’re dreaming of a romantic Paso Robles winery proposal, Croad Winery is the perfect place to pop the question. Nestled on a hilltop with sweeping vineyard views, this winery is both secluded and welcoming — the kind of spot that feels intimate but still has room for celebration.


One of the highlights of Croad Winery proposals is their “Proposal Corner,” a private gazebo overlook that the team graciously blocks off for couples. It’s an ideal backdrop for a surprise proposal, surrounded by rolling vineyards and Central Coast charm.

Planning the Proposal at Croad Winery in Paso Robles

Croad Winery is also a wonderful option if you’re planning to include friends or family in the moment. The layout makes it easy to keep a group hidden until after the proposal, so you can have an intimate beginning followed by a joyful reveal.

Trevor planned his Paso Robles proposal to his girlfriend Catherine in December. Friends arrived ahead of time — along with me, hidden at the top of the hill, camera ready. As Trevor led Catherine down toward the gazebo, she thought they were just stopping for a quick selfie. Instead, Trevor dropped to one knee and completely surprised her. Catherine’s reaction was pure joy, and I was able to capture every second with candid proposal photography.


The Double Surprise

As Trevor and Catherine posed for a photo to showcase her new engagement ring, I gave the signal for their friends to appear. Suddenly, cheers erupted and round two of the surprise began! It was one of those moments filled with energy, love, and the kind of emotion that makes proposal photography so meaningful.

We spent a little time wandering the property for engagement photos, taking advantage of the golden light and the winery’s beautiful scenery. Afterward, Trevor and Catherine rejoined their friends for wine tasting — the perfect way to celebrate their Paso Robles winery proposal.
