Propose with a View: The Dream Wheel at American Dream
We often get asked by our clients what’s a good proposal location that’s private, has a stunning view of the NYC skyline, and still fits a smaller budget for the venue.
Our answer is now — The Dream Wheel at American Dream.
It’s one of those hidden gems that surprises people. Inside a private capsule high above the city, you get the perfect mix of romance and quiet — just the two of you, surrounded by flowers, candlelight, and the view of Manhattan in the distance.
Why We Recommend the Dream Wheel
Each capsule is completely private and air-conditioned, giving you your own space without distractions. The ride lasts around 25 minutes, which is just the right amount of time for a heartfelt proposal, a few photos, and a quiet moment to enjoy the skyline together.
Depending on your timing, you can plan for a sunset glow or an evening ride when the city lights start to sparkle. Both settings feel cinematic and intimate — perfect for capturing that once-in-a-lifetime moment.
One special feature many of our clients love is the TV monitor inside the capsule.
It allows you to play a personalized video or photo slideshow, often paired with your favorite song.
Many grooms use it to show clips of their travels, milestones, and little moments together — a touching buildup before the proposal itself. Combined with flowers, candles, and music, it feels incredibly personal and emotional.
Our Experience Designing Proposals Here
We’ve had the joy of designing many proposals on the Dream Wheel, each tailored to reflect the couple’s personality and story.
One of our favorites was a lavender-themed proposal, filled with soft purple roses, lilac stock, and white hydrangeas. The floral arrangements were set on tall ivory columns, surrounded by glowing candles. As the wheel reached its peak, the skyline lit up behind them — a perfect backdrop to a quiet “yes.”
Another couple chose a romantic pink theme with blush roses and white hydrangeas. The groom had prepared a surprise video that played on the capsule screen — filled with photos and clips from their relationship — and ended with a heartfelt message before he got down on one knee.
Customization for Every Couple
Every couple’s story is different, and your proposal design should be too.
That’s why we offer fully customized themes — from color palettes to how elaborate you want the setup to be.
Some couples prefer a minimal and elegant design with a few statement arrangements and candles, while others want a more immersive floral look that transforms the space.
Both can be beautiful — it just depends on your vision.
Our team knows the space inside and out, ensuring every setup is not only beautiful but also practical and safe for the ride.
