Since the launch of the Romantic Tower Tours at Bath Abbey a year ago, over 30 couples have enjoyed the unforgettable experience.
One couple was on their honeymoon, while another two were celebrating a wedding anniversary. However, the most popular reason by far for a Romantic Tower Tour has been marriage proposals.
Joe Reynolds, Tower Tour Manager, said: “29 marriage proposals have now taken place at the top of the Tower. We’re really pleased to be able to boast a 100% success rate. All proposals have ended up with a ‘Yes’ and in fact, one couple who became engaged on a Romantic Tower Tour will be getting married in the Abbey later this month.
“With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we’re expecting even more couples than usual. So if you are looking for an imaginative and fun way to celebrate the day, why not book a Tower Tour for two?”
Eleanor Da Costa, a visitor from London whose fiancé, David Heaven, popped the question while they were on the romantic tour, said: “I didn’t suspect a thing! It was all just so perfect – I couldn’t be happier! Thank you to the staff at Bath Abbey and to my wonderful fiancé for turning a lovely day trip into a beautiful fairy-tale.”
Whether you live in Bath or are visiting from further afar, Romantic Tower Tours are a great way to do something special for your loved one.
Tailored for two, couples will get to spend quality time together at the top of the tower enjoying glasses of champagne surrounded by spectacular views of the city.
Other highlights include sitting behind the Abbey clock-face, chiming the Abbey bells and standing on top of the famous vaulted ceiling.
For those ready to take the next step, this could be the perfect spot for a marriage proposal.
