Dale, 34, has been carrying the idea of proposing to Karlie, 29, under the Aurora Borealis for five years. “I hadn’t heard or seen anyone do it before, and I wanted to do something different from everybody else,” he said. That place was also special for both of them because the couple visited it about 30 times. “We both love chasing the Northern Lights and photographing them together, so it seemed pretty fitting.”

His first plan didn’t work out because Dale hid the ring inside a moisturizer bottle, but when their luggage was overweight on a flight from the Faroe Islands to Iceland, Karlie threw the moisturizer – with a $4,000 ring hidden inside – into a trash can. “I didn’t know until a week after when we were in Iceland and I was looking everywhere for the ring,” Dale said.

The man saved up money for a new ring and the couple later booked a two-month work trip through Iceland, Norway, and Finland. He wanted to ask the big question seven years to the day they first started dating, but the Northern Lights seemed to him too beautiful to wait. “It was the most amazing display of color in the Aurora that we’ve ever seen.”

He staged the scene in a way that made Karlie believe they were taking a selfie. When everything was ready, Dale got down on one knee in front of the breathtaking Aurora’s greens and blues, and removed the ring out of the couple’s medical pack. Karlie said yes, and the selfie turned out to be both beautiful and romantic as hell.

When Karlie and her photographer boyfriend Dale travelled to Scandinavia to see the Northern Lights she did not suspect it would end in a huge surprise

The couple loves to travel all over the world, but the Arctic Circle is their favorite place – they visited it about 30 times

“We both love chasing the Northern Lights and photographing them together, so it seemed pretty fitting,” 34-year-old Dale said

His first attempt was unsuccessful because Karlie (unknowingly) threw away the $4,000 engagement ring he was hiding inside a bottle

“I didn’t know until a week after when we were in Iceland”

Dale saved money for another ring and booked another trip to the Northern Lights through Iceland, Norway, and Finland

He staged the scene in a way that made Karlie believe they were taking a selfie. Then, Dale got down on one knee and took out the ring

Karlie said yes and the moment was captured perfectly in the decoy selfie that turned out to be breathtaking

Congrats to the happy couple on their magical engagement!

Paul hid the book in a local library.

One guy Proposed to his Girlfriend with a children’s book he hid in a local library.

He then told Erika they needed to stop by real quick to return a book on the way to dinner.

There once was a gorilla
That fell for a giraffe.
She surprised him by how much
She could make him laugh.

The two, you see,
Were from different worlds
Their first date, so nervous,
He’d certainly hurl.

In spite of their differences,
It was love at first sight.
His feelings grew quickly,
His heart took to flight.

The gorilla, his life,
Unpolished and scattered
Now refined and focused
On those things that matter.

There were simply no words
For how lucky he’d gotten.
Without her by his side
Life would surely be rotten.

It’s hard to believe
Just how happy they were.
He could not imagine
Even one day without her

So he got on one knee
And uttered the plea:
“My dearest giraffe,
Will you marry me?”

He felt his heart beating
Right out of his chest.
He could do nothing but wait
And hope she’d say YES.

When she finally answered
He could not stop grinning
Because he knew, in his heart,
This was just The Beginning!

Of course, after something this adorable, Erika had to say yes.
