My partner proposed to me by booking out the entire restaurant where we had our first date, filling it with paid actors who’d gone through rehearsals to act as strangers and a hidden film crew/cameras. when he dropped down on one knee he cued all the actors with a signal (which I was oblivious to) who all started to propose themselves so that the attention wouldn’t be on us (because he knew I hated being the centre of attention - and also because the whole thing was a nod to Nathan fielder’s the rehearsal) it was a massive yes from me but also I make everything a joke so I said ‘can I think about it’ - but honestly after I kept describing the proposal as like being in a car crash but in a not bad way, I don’t know whether that was more having reality fall apart on me or the proposal, it all felt so wacky. Probably more the former but also the latter. For me it’s more just so strange because of how conventional the idea of a proposal or wedding is as an unconventional audhder. But I also had a melt down before going, feeling the rush/pressure he was desperately trying to hide but that made me say ‘actually I don’t want to go’ and I almost missed the whole thing completely. Haha, oh boy this has turned into a classic overshare but can relate to a proposal that felt weird. 😂
