The time has come where you’ve decided to get down on one knee and pop the question. Alas, planning the proposal can be a hectic process, especially securing the perfect space that’s free from uncontrollable elements such as rain and pesky crowds getting in the way.
Instead of playing the lottery game with the erratic weather, here are some studio spaces in Singapore you can rent for your upcoming proposal. Romantic and aesthetic? You can be sure that she’ll say “yes”.

Take one look at White Rabbit Hole and you’d never be able to tell that it’s located in the middle of bustling Chinatown. The interior is strewn with patio furniture and potted plants, somewhat reminiscent of the tea party scene from Alice In Wonderland.
There are two spaces available for use, Classic (from $168/hour) and the smaller Petite space (from $128/hour). Both Classic and Petite spaces can be combined to form the Grande (from $228/hour). The larger Grande size would also be suitable for events like solemnisations, so bookmark this for after your SO says “yes!”
