We’re not exactly the biggest fans of public marriage proposals around here, but when they’re done well, they’re worthy of being spotlighted — and this one, via the Daily What, is pretty good.
Even better, it’s the brainchild of New York Times tech reporter David Pogue, of whom I am a fan — as I’m sure some of you reading this may be.
On August 15, 2012, I proposed to the love of my life. I made a fake movie trailer — a thinly veiled version of our love story. I persuaded the movie theater at a summer resort to play it before a movie we went to see. Both of our families were there to see it.
I hid a video camera to capture her reaction (it was in a ficus plant next to the screen). Here’s how it happened!
Enjoy.
