Six Unforgettable Marriage Proposals Caught on Camera
Marriage proposals have seen the bar set sky-high in recent years, between the million-dollar, buy-out-a-stadium celebrity proposals (you know who we’re talking about) and the unfortunate (but hilarious) fails that hit social networks like wildfire, there’s little out there that hasn’t been done.
Luckily, our filmers have caught some of the best, the worst, the unbelievable and, at times, the painful proposals around the world on camera. Here are some of our favourites.
A Heartwarming Proposal at War in Ukraine
A Ukrainian soldier decided to propose to his girlfriend and did it in a very original way, in the midst of Russia's invasion of the country.
A Magical Drone Proposal in Shanghai
Hundreds of illuminated drones displayed a marriage proposal show at the Bund in Shanghai. The video shows a number of illuminated drones placing a ring onto a woman's finger. The drones also formed a heart with the initials of two people eitherside as well as "Marry Me" in English characters.
A Knight in Shining Armour (Literally)
This is the moment a fantasy-obsessed man became a real life 'knight in shining armour' (donning £4,000 worth of armour) and proposed after challenging his girlfriend to a medieval dual.
A Lego Stop-Motion Proposal at the Cinema
A heartwarming video of a man proposing to his girlfriend using stop-motion Lego animation. The footage shows Ben proposing to his girlfriend Kirsten in his local movie theatre, the Electric Cinema in Birmingham, UK, using an animation produced by 17-year-old Scottish filmmaker Morgan Spence.
A Sky-High Proposal Mid-Flight
An amateur pilot took his girlfriend on a beautiful sunrise flight and proposed to her in the air. The video, filmed in the US on board a Cessna light aircraft, shows the couple flying on a stunning day, before Miguel (the pilot) reveals the ring and asks Ana Cristina to marry him.
An Unfortunate Waterfall Proposal in the Grand Canyon
A hilarious video at Havasupai Falls in the Grand Canyon, caught the moment a filmer knelt down to propose to his girlfriend before losing it to the waterfall’s currents around them. He couldn’t find the ring but fortunately she said yes.
