About Sophie — Founder of Above & Beyond Swiss & Propose. Marry. Celebrate.
My story with the Alps began long before I ever imagined building a company here. I’ve always been drawn to places that make people feel something — awe, calm, connection, possibility. Verbier and the surrounding valleys have that effect on everyone who arrives. The mountains slow us down, the forests steady us, and the local culture — from its winemakers and cheesemakers to its small family‑run restaurants — reminds us what authenticity really feels like.
After years working in luxury hospitality and concierge services, I realised that what I loved most wasn’t the logistics or the polish, but the way a single experience could shift someone’s entire state of being. I wanted to create something that honoured that feeling — something rooted in the landscape, the people, and the stories that make this region so special.
That’s how Above & Beyond Swiss was born.
Today, it brings together everything I value:
- alpine sports and outdoor adventures that reconnect people with nature
- local gastronomy and wine experiences that celebrate the region’s craft and character
- authentic encounters with artisans and producers who shape the culture of the Alps
- and intimate celebrations that honour life’s most meaningful moments
Over time, couples began asking for more — not just adventures or tastings, but moments that marked the milestones of their lives. Proposals. Elopements. Romantic celebrations woven into the rhythm of the mountains. Moments that deserved intention, care, and a sense of place.
And so Propose.Marry.Celebrate was created.
Since 2015, I’ve been helping couples craft meaningful alpine moments — from quiet sunrise proposals to adventurous elopements, from panoramic flights to private wine tastings in hidden cellars. My approach blends local knowledge, creative design, and a deep respect for the landscape. I believe the most powerful experiences are the ones that feel personal, grounded, and shaped by the journey as much as the moment itself.
Above all, I want every guest and every couple to feel held, understood, and free to be fully present. The mountains take care of the rest.
