Hallmark is coming up with a brand new romantic movie this weekend, titled A Machu Picchu Proposal. Starring Rhiannon Fish and Alec Santos in the lead roles as Katie and Carlos, the movie premieres this Saturday, June 2, 2025. A Machu Picchu Proposal follows the story of a woman named Katie who agrees to join her brother Dan and his girlfriend Luciana on a trip to Peru.
Dan is planning to propose to his girlfriend grandly at Machu Picchu. Which is why he needs Katie to pull the whole thing off. He is relying on her to help him ask Luciana’s Peruvian father for his blessing, as Katie is well-versed in Spanish. However, every time Dan prepares to propose, Luciana’s friend, Chef Carlos, comes into the picture, ruining every proposal attempt.
But Katie refuses to give up, and does everything in her power to make this proposal happen, until suddenly Dan calls the whole thing off. Now, Katie must save the day, and to do so, she must rely on Chef Carlos’ spontaneity. As the two team up, sparks fly, and Carlos might just end up winning Katie's heart.
