A Romantic Restaurant Among the Stars: Dining and Proposals in Outer Space
Starting in 2025, couples seeking an extraordinary way to propose can do so with an intimate dinner in space. This unprecedented experience takes place aboard a space capsule lifted by a stratospheric balloon, offering lovers the chance to enjoy a gourmet meal prepared by a Michelin-starred French chef, served by an AI-powered robot.
ApoteoSurprise, renowned for orchestrating lavish marriage proposals in Paris, is now extending its services beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. Their new offering allows romantics to ask for their beloved’s hand 35 kilometers above the planet, creating a truly unforgettable moment.
Upon arriving at the spaceport, the couple will be greeted by a pilot who will guide them to a spherical, futuristic space capsule outfitted with luxurious amenities. At the heart of the cabin, a beautifully set table awaits, evoking the ambiance of the finest Parisian restaurants.
The couple will then meet StellarEmbrace, a sophisticated robot developed by ApoteoSurprise in collaboration with a British startup. This AI-powered attendant is designed to adapt to the emotions and desires of the guests, providing a personalized and interactive experience. StellarEmbrace will address the woman by name, presenting her with a bouquet of roses and announcing the upcoming gourmet dinner for two in space.
As the helium-filled stratospheric balloon lifts the pressurized capsule, the couple will embark on a serene two-hour ascent. Through expansive windows, they will witness stunning 360-degree views of Earth, gradually fading into the deep blue halo and the infinite darkness of space.
Reaching an altitude of 35 kilometers, the capsule will hover above 99% of Earth’s atmosphere. Here, the couple can marvel at the curvature of the Earth and experience the overview effect—a profound cognitive shift that alters one’s perspective on the planet and humanity. This unique vantage point, previously experienced by only a few hundred astronauts, offers a breathtaking and humbling view.
Seated at their elegantly set table, the couple will enjoy a three-hour, five-course gourmet dinner. Each course, paired with specially selected wines and champagne, is meticulously crafted by a celebrated French chef with two Michelin stars. Enhancing the atmosphere, a curated playlist will play in the background, featuring celestial-themed classics like David Bowie’s “Space Oddity,” The Beatles’ “Across the Universe,” and The Police’s “Walking on the Moon.”
As dessert approaches, StellarEmbrace will create a memorable twist. The robot will remind the man of an important task he has forgotten, presenting him with a luminous box that requires a secret code to open. As the suitor recalls and enters the code, the box will open, revealing an exquisite engagement ring. In this magical moment, he will propose, sealing their love amidst the stars.
Following this intimate proposal, the capsule will begin its gentle two-hour descent back to Earth. Upon their return, the newly engaged couple will find that StellarEmbrace has documented their entire journey, capturing every precious moment from their arrival to their tender farewells.
This extraordinary experience, blending cutting-edge technology with timeless romance, offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to propose in a setting as unique and boundless as the love being celebrated. With ApoteoSurprise’s space dining adventure, the sky is not the limit—it’s just the beginning.
