This proposal is for all your helpless romantic girlfriends that love to cuddle up to Sleepless In Seattle. I won’t deny it, I love Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan’s endearing relationship too! If she digs love stories then she’ll love this romantic proposal as much as we do!
Josh’s girlfriend loved the movie Sleepless in Seattle. The couple had never visited New York City together but always had it on their to do list. The night before he proposed he rented Sleepless in Seattle for them to watch. She had no idea that the movie foreshadowed the night about to come…
They ate a nice dinner near the Empire State building so that he could take her to the top of the building after they finished. When she came out of the elevator a yellow look-a-like backpack with the teddy bear (from the movie) was waiting against the wall. She saw the backpack and noticed it had her name attached. Her soon to be fiancé told her she better open it.
He filled the inside of the backpack with a few of her favorite things (Reese’s cups, photobook of her favorite moments, the “Sleepless in Seattle” soundtrack, etc.). The best surprise was when she pulled out the teddy bear the engagement ring was tied to its paw. That’s when he “popped the question.” To top it off, some of their friends and family were waiting around the corner to congratulate them and continue the fun at their engagement party.
How it worked smoothly: He had a trusted buddy place the backpack right before they exited the elevator to a keep close eye on the ring. He also asked his friend to hide around the corner and take photos when he proposed. I would concure that it must have been a flawless and memorable night!
Love,
