When it comes to proposals, there's no such thing as over-the-top.
While some couples might prefer to keep things low key, even when it comes to their engagement,
others might honor the magnitude of the occasion with well-planned and personalized proposals.
For these couples, the proposals were so elaborate and touching that it's hard to imagine the
wedding could compare to what was pulled off to put the aisle run into motion.
The Disney princess treatment
When Eric decided to pop the question, he drew inspiration from his and Katherine's
favorite Pixar movie, Up.
Since both of them are nurses, they don't have the luxury of working normal hours, so
the big event was held after they both finished the night shift at their local hospital.
Eric and his family worked through the night to set up a ton of colorful balloons and made
a replica of the gut-wrenching "My Adventure Book" moment from the film.
He really went above and beyond and presenting her with both a photo collection of their
memories together as well as a compilation video before getting down on one knee.
To make sure it was even more perfect, he had a violinist play the movie's theme music
all the while.
"Three, two, one, goooo"
A skirt and a plan
Fashion and romance are unlikely bedfellows, so for Claudette, when she pointed out a puffy
pink skirt that she liked at the store one day, she had know idea she was setting up
the basis of her proposal.
Her boyfriend Jonathan used that style cue as an inspiration for the entire setup and
sent her the skirt, along with some necessities and a note that told her where to show up
in her fancy new threads.
It was then that Claudette found her future husband waiting in what can only be described
as a fairy tale land.
That's when he popped the question and there was not a dry eye in the pristine park he
chose for such a lovely occasion.
This is the exact kind situation we need waterproof mascara for, gals.
Flying high
Despite the hustle and bustle, airports can be pretty romantic.
At least, Dania thought so when she decided to pop the question to her long-time girlfriend
Morgan.
With the help of Morgan's family, she arranged to turn their arrival home from an anniversary
trip into the perfect proposal.
As the couple headed for the airport exit, the couple's families came out of hiding and
held up a sign while Morgan's back was turned.
Then, when their song came on to get her attention, that's when the waterworks started flowing.
The swoon factor was so intense everyone needed a group hug afterwards.
"la la la"
An artful event
Faking an art gallery showing might sound simple enough, but when you have no artistic
talent, it can get pretty tough.
This is what Sean attempted for his girlfriend of four years, Daniela.
While the artwork that took up the gallery walls might seem amateur at first, each piece
of art was somehow related to their relationship.
Daniela didn't flinch at any of the pieces or even seem suspicious that something was
off until they were shown a digital installation by the faux artist she realized she was the
muse of the gallery.
She nearly fainted when Sean got down on two knees and asked her to be his bride.
As if that wasn't romantic enough, after she said yes, Sean had yet another surprise in
store for her upstairs as all their family and friends had gathered to join in on the
celebration of their big night.
Now, that's what you call a work of art.
Hitting a homerun
Cameron Hill and Melissa Dohme are a prime example of how love can find a way to shine
through the darkness.
The two met under devastating circumstances, after Melissa was attacked by her former boyfriend,
who stabbed her dozens of times across her body.
Most people might not survive such serious injuries, but Cameron was a paramedic and
firefighter who responded to the scene and helped keep Melissa stable until she reached
the hospital.
The two reconnected several months after the incident, fell madly in love, and Hill ended
up popping the question at a local baseball game.
Melissa was chosen to throw out the first pitch of the season, and assumed they picked
her because of her inspirational story.
Little did she know that Cameron had other plans for her moment on the mound.
Rather than sit in the stands, he ended up bringing the ball out to her, after writing
her a little message on it first.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for Melissa and Cameron."
And, yes, their wedding was just as inspiring and heartwarming as you might expect.
