Three meters above the sky… or 35km above the ground. The Parisian agency ApoteoSurprisespecialized in unusual marriage proposals, adds a new scenario for the romantics of the future: roses, champagne, a chef with two Michelin stars and stratospheric views of the Earth. This is the proposal in space that will conquer lovers of strong emotions.
Upon arrival at the spaceport, a pilot will greet the couple in a spherical and futuristic space capsule equipped with all the necessary technology. An elegant table, in the purest Parisian style, will reign in the center of the cabin.
Lovers will meet StellarEmbrace, the robot that ApoteoSurprise has developed in collaboration with a British startup. Equipped with artificial intelligence, the robot is capable of adapting to the couple’s emotions and desires to offer them a personalized service. StellarEmbrace, which will call the bride and groom by her name at all times, will give a bouquet of roses to the surprised person, announcing that a romantic evening awaits them in space.
Powered by a helium-inflated stratospheric balloon, the pressurized capsule will begin a two-hour ascent, offering stunning 360-degree views of our planet through giant windows.
At an altitude of 35 kilometersthe space module will fly over 99% of the atmosphere, allowing the couple contemplate the curvature of the Earth, its bluish halo and the darkness of space. Like just 600 astronauts before them, lovers will experience the “overview effect,” a cognitive shift that redefines their view of the world and leads to a greater connection with all of humanity.
For three hours, the couple will taste the menu prepared especially for the occasion by a French chef with two Michelin stars. The robot will be in charge of serving all the dishes, as well as glasses of champagne and wine, orange juice, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and freshly baked croissants.
The proposal of five-course pairing It has haute cuisine recipes such as blown scallops, lobster and truffles in duo, caviar matured with flower of milk, supreme roast glazed with honey and crispy grapefruit. The dinner will be accompanied by a curated soundtrack that will include such iconic (and timely) songs as “Space Oddity” by David Bowie, “Across the Universe” by The Beatles and “Walking on the Moon” by The Police.
Just before dessert, StellarEmbrace will interrupt the tasting with a touch of humor to remind the suitor that he has forgotten something important. The robot will give you a glowing chest that will open with a secret code. Inside, of course, an engagement ring.
When the intended person says ‘yes, I want’ (hopefully), the capsule will begin a slow descent. After a two hour tripthe betrothed will return to Earth and will be able to remember the experience as many times as they want, since the robot films every moment of the trip.
It sounds like science fiction, but you can be the protagonist of this love movie in space. You only need €750,000.
