snow lights proposal

Lorenzo and Sarah tramped through the snow and slush together on a cold, dark night illuminated by the lights on Addison Street in Philadelphia, PA. Sarah didn’t know it yet, but when Lorenzo stopped their walk in the middle of the street, something was about to happen that would change both their lives forever.

Addison Street Lights

The alley of Addison Street in downtown Philadelphia is known for being lined with charming brick row houses, with white string lights strung around the trees that also line the street. The trees that line the sidewalks on Addison Street are strung in the white twinkle lights all year long. These lights, combined with the orange of the streetlights above the trees, give the effect of an arch overhead illuminating the street with a warm glow. This little side street has been named by multiple different sources as one of the prettiest streets in not only Philadelphia, but the Northeast United States.

The lights wrapped around the trees on this 1700 block of Philadelphia must be special-ordered from a company in Kansas City. The bulbs of these lights are brighter than the typical twinkle lights. They are also more energy efficient LED lights. The 1700 block pooled money for the lights and the lift required to put them up. Around 15,000 of these LED bulbs light the street.

Lorenzo held Sarah’s hands as they stood in the snow together. Then, he got on one knee and proposed!

Sarah was so overjoyed! She couldn’t help but kiss Lorenzo as he knelt in the snow with her engagement ring.

J & J Studios loves the adorable touch Sarah added here by making her foot “pop” as she kissed her fiance! It definitely added another cinematic element to a proposal already perfect enough for a movie.

A clear umbrella was another cute touch as it began to snow. The transparency of the umbrella allowed the lights and the snowflakes to be visible through it.
