Sweet tears of joy, this is a lovely video.
This is no ordinary proposal – and it should come as no surprise that the man who created it is an actor. Isaac Lamb shocked his girlfriend Amy Frankel when he organised for 60 of his closest family and friends to dance and lip sync to the tune of Bruno Mars’ “Marry You” to set up his ultimate question: will you marry me?
Is it the best marriage proposal ever?

Am I the only one who thinks this song is actually an awful choice for a proposal? Ever actually listened to the words??
It’s a beautiful night,
We’re looking for something dumb to do.
Hey baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
Well I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go,
No one will know,
Oh, come on, girl.
Who cares if we’re trashed got a pocket full of cash we can blow,
Shots of patron,
And it’s on, girl.
Is it the look in your eyes,
Or is it this dancing juice?
Who cares baby,
I think I wanna marry you.
I’ll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,
So what you wanna do?
Let’s just run girl.
If we wake up and you wanna break up that’s cool.
No, I won’t blame you;
It was fun, girl.

Yeah… I want to commit my life to someone who thinks marriage is a dumb, fun thing to do when you’re smashed – because you can just annul it in the morning.
Awesome.

This is the proposal my partner did for me. It was emotionally exhausting but one of the best days of my life (except the arrival of my kids!). Thought I might share
loading...
It was corny, it was daggy, I LOVED IT!
loading...
WOW!! what a family, what friendship, what a start to a life together – ain’t love grand
loading...
This is great!
loading...
nice.’
it would have been v hard to say no, though…
loading...
Sorry I found it annoying and a bit suss to be honest. Really silly…..
loading...
I agree – it was overly contrived, long and annoying.
loading...
You sir are a dick! how can anyone live up to that?
Amazing stuff mate, well done!
loading...
Wow. I loved it. Watching this video really hurts my cheeks. I could not stop smiling. My stupid cat was trying to distract me with acting crazy)
Best proposal! Loved that all her friends and family were involved.
loading...
Beautiful and original! What a lucky lucky lady with a wonderful fiancé and stunning friends and family! This made me weep and giggle at the same time. Bloody brilliant!
loading...
Boyfriends around the world are probably cursing Isaac right now.
loading...
That was just sensational!
loading...
Here’s another one that is just as good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Su1YLAjty-U

Very daggy.
loading...
I agree! My comment that it was soooo corny was deleted!
loading...
That was amazing… definitely the best marriage proposal i’ve ever seen…got me crying..lol…thanks for sharing and hope they have a wonderful life together.
loading...
Glee has a lot to answer for . . . .
The friends/family on the laptops was a nice touch
loading...
Wow that’s amazing and so thoughtful. I wish I was proposed to like that. How did everyone else get proposed to?
loading...
Forgive my cynicism – I hope it lasts.

My husband showed me this yesterday. I cried! I don’t cry. Ever! Too too beautiful. What brought me undone was the lap tops with the nearest and dearest who couldn’t be there.
Oh bugger! I’m crying again.
loading...
I cried at that moment also….just beautiful.
loading...
That was fantastic!
loading...
Clever…but far too OTT for me! I just like simple proposals lol
loading...
OMG Im crying! I loved it and I wouldnt have thought so until I watched it.
Beautiful.
loading...
Yeap, BEST EVER!
loading...
wasn’t expecting it make me cry…but it did. I love that song.
loading...
Love it! Bought a tear to my eye! Makes me wonder what they’ll do for the wedding!
loading...
TOOOOOO cute I loved watching…..Thank You
loading...
Omg – cant wait for the encore @ the wedding!!!
My 5 yo goes I hope that happens to me
loading...
that was awesome!! Loved the dancing jews!!! LOL!
Lucky she said yes!!
loading...
love it
loading...
Love it. What a champion.
loading...
I’m not saying that it isn’t good, but definitely not the best proposal ever. For mine you can’t beat Sid Ceasar’s muppet proposal. It has a long back story but well worth the read before watching the proposal

That is the cutest thing I have EVER seen! God, I hope my boyfriend is that creative when he proposes. If I were male, I’d probably do one of those out-there proposals, too.
loading...
OMG crying so much, but think I have to watch it again!! magic!!
loading...
I saw this clip this morning on the Today show and it made me cry. So beautiful!
loading...
I have tears running down my face and have to pick my little boy up from Kindy!!! So beautiful!
loading...
This is amazing! I totally cried.
loading...
Made me cry – it’s nice to cry for something happy and joyful!
loading...
I love it! I was in tears! It doesn’t seem fake at all – her reaction is too real! Good on him, very creative and unforgettable proposal!
loading...
Cute but I wouldn’t want everyone else to know that he was going to ask me before he asked me. And it seems weird too that so many people were involved. A marriage is between you and your partner. It’s like she is getting asked by all her friends.
loading...
Aww jess, stop being such a cynic lol.
loading...
oh my god I love this! I have tears in my eyes!
future husband take note…
loading...
Awesome – but the wedding will be such a let down after that!
loading...
I would just die if someone did that to me. Grand gestures make me extremely uncomfortable. But then I guess I wouldn’t date someone who would do that in the first place hahaha
loading...
Same. It’s lovely to watch but there is no way I could handle it myself.
loading...
It seems sweet but alot of TV programs and blogs are saying that it’s a fake.
loading...
Who cares?!? It was still sweet to watch, and it had to bring a smile to your face!!
loading...
No Anonymous, it’s genuine – both of their FB profiles feature photo’s of them together and support the info about their jobs, and were created many years ago – I’m pretty sure they didn’t both create fake profiles in 2008 anticipating it!! Not to mention they’re doing interviews on some big shows in the US as a result. You can also recognise a lot of the people from the video on in pics on their friends list.

Excellent sleuthing, Nancy Drew. You should be a private investigator.
loading...
Hehe – I was always more Trixie Belden girl myself!! Go BWOTG!!
loading...
I still love a good Trixie book! Always fancied myself as Honey… I might go pull one from the shelf tonight!
loading...
Love it, saw it earlier or last night. Happy tears are flowing. Thanks for sharing <3
loading...
Thats was awesome!
loading...
Crying. Beautiful.
loading...
Oh I don’t know whether I was crying because it was so sweet or so funny!!
loading...
That was so sweet
