I have always wanted to coordinate a scuba diving proposal. But when I finally got to do it, it was even more fun than I originally thought it would be. But that is probably because the couple we planned it for, Karim and Zahra, were so amazing and down to earth. You are going to LOVE this proposal story.
So get this……..During our initial interview with Karim, we found out Zahra is OBSESSED with entering online contests. We also learned that the couple loved scuba diving and it is one thing that they always do together. So we decided to pull the ultimate ruse on Zahra!! We created a fake travel blog and for weeks, Marvin (aka Travis Wallace ) made travel posts. Then finally, he posted the ultimate contest; 2 FREE plane tickets to Long Beach, CA, FREE hotel accommodations, and tickets to the Long Beach aquarium where the winner would interact with Sea Lions and scuba dive inside the tank. Zahra entered as we knew she would, and of course…..she won!
Zahra showed up to claim her prize and everyone went along with it. They confirmed that she had indeed won this amazing prize, and they took her on the adventure of a lifetime. After her sea lion interaction, she went on to enjoy her next event which was what she was most excited for and that was scuba diving. At the end of the tour, Karim swam over to some signs we had stashed under a rock. He revealed the signs to her one at a time and then pointed to the glass to shock her with a sign that said “You’re my Lobster, Will you marry me?” He then proposed to her underwater and they took off their masks to kiss. It was so amazing and we were so honored to be a part of this beautiful marriage proposal.
