Street Dance Birthday Party Turns Into One Of The Most Romantic Marriage Proposals Ever!
var addthis_config = {“data_track_addressbar”:true};
Those flash mob marriage proposals are so last year.
Lucas Bane wanted to celebrate his boyfriend David Devora’s birthday, and propose to him too. The L.A. actor got “Step Up” dance star Briana Evigan and several other dancers to start the birthday festivities, but when the music changed to Bruno Mars’ “Marry You,” well, the jig was up.
Almost.
Bane had a pile of flash cards on hand that make the iconic “Love Actually” scene look amateur.
“I’m a romantic and I love surprising David so I knew I wanted to do something big,” Bane told Instinct Magazine. “My first idea was just to write, ‘will you marry me?’ with Christmas lights. Then I thought about adding music and doing a little dance on the balcony. Little by little I just kept adding one idea on top of the other and every time I asked a friend a favor they delivered times ten, and it became a big production.”
For his part, Devora says he “had NO idea” and “wasn’t even expecting a party.”
“He took me to a nice dinner and we had a couple of drinks after. To me, that’s a great birthday. However, when he blindfolded me after dinner and drinks, I knew something was up. I figured we were gonna meet a few friends for dessert. Little did I know my life was about to change!”
Indeed!
Congratulations to the happy couple, and thanks for reminding the world how special love is.
