A month or so ago we were contacted by a very charismatic man named Lonnie. He knew he wanted Mel’s proposal to be amazing but he just needed a little help coordinating the event so he hired The Heart Bandits-Wedding Proposal Planners to make sure it all went perfectly. After narrowing the proposal ideas to one final concept, we decided to send Mel on a scavenger hunt in a limo. She was sent to Belmont Brewery in Long Beach where the couple had their first date. There she was given her favorite flower, a pink stargazer, and a lemon drop shot which is her favorite drink. Next she was driven to Color Me Mine where she went inside to receive another stargazer and a ceramic piece that her sweetie painted for her! She then was taken to the gorgeous Gateway Plaza Fanfare Fountains in San Pedro.
She stepped out of the limo and we escorted her down the palm tree lined walkway. She was very confused but excited. Suddenly, one by one, her friends popped out from behind the palm trees holding signs with messages that Lonnie had created for her! They said, “He loves you”, “He lives for you”, “You make him happy”, “You are the one”, and “Heart Infinity Squared” which is an inside thing for the couple.
The fountain show was going on in the background and music was playing as if her whole proposal was choreographed to the music. As she saw each friend pop out holding the signs, tears started to build in her eyes as she knew, this was her moment.
Finally she saw him, the love of her life holding a bouquet of her favorite flowers, ready to make her dreams come true. He took her by the hand and told her how much she meant to him and then got down on one knee and proposed.
As if meant just for her, at the moment she said yes the fountains shot up to great heights and it just made for a perfect moment. When she turned around she saw all of her friends holding signs that spelled out “Congratulations.”
From here the group went to celebrate and then the couple took the limo alone to the Sky Room in Long Beach for a celebratory dinner. Perfect ending to a perfect night. Congratulations Lonnie and Mel. We are so happy we could be a part of this amazing day. Watch the video here.
