Thinking of popping the question anytime soon? Getting down on one knee just may not cut it.

In what just may be the most well thought out and extreme wedding proposal ever, the prospective groom to be rents out a movie theater, fills the theater with friends and family and shows up with his girlfriend late so she won’t recognize the faces in the crowd. A trailer for a movie begins and it’s story is extremely similar to events shared by the couple. At the end of the trailer the boyfriend appears on the screen proposing. Just like any good movie, there is a happy end, she says yes.
