Later, Charlotte learned afterwards that she kept ruining all of his proposal ideas as her working hours changed for a period of time.

True Love

This couple fi rst crossed paths at a house party during their last year of university. Jenn took the initiative to initiate a conversation with Jake, not knowing that he had spotted her a few times at the gym nearby. From that day forward, their story began to unfold.Jake proposed in Croatia and, aside from noticing he was acting a bit suspicious with his cabin bag, Jenn had no idea what was coming! The proposal took place during a lovely evening stroll on a headland that offered a stunning view of the harbour. It was completely secluded, with no one else in sight – it was absolutely perfect.

Dream-Worthy Memories

These charming couple first crossed paths 11 years ago at a party. They instantly connected over their shared sense of humour. They spent the entire evening in fits of laughter, and that joyful night marked the beginning of their beautiful relationship. Fast forward time, Josh surprised Jordan by proposing during a recreation of their first date, which included a drink at a local pub and an evening walk through the fields – it was a complete surprise! Jordan says, "It's a funny story because at that time of year, there's usually a huge sunflower field at the end of the walk. Josh had planned to get down on one knee in front of the sunflowers, which he had checked the week before to ensure they were still there. Once we walked through the fields, we realised they had recently been harvested and were just a muddy land area. At this point, I wasn't aware Josh had planned to propose, so I just laughed it off, and we walked back the way we came from. We sat on a bench, where he knelt and asked me to be his wife. I was shocked and maybe said some swear words before finally saying 'yes'!

Once Upon A Time

These lovebirds first crossed paths at school when they were 12 years old, playing on the playground. David's mother decided to enrol him in a different school than his two older brothers.

They were just school friends for two years, while Abigail's friends had to endure her constant chatter about how much she fancied David.

Love Is In The Air

These two lovebirds initially met in 2012 as teenagers in the Army Cadets, but it wasn't until eight years later that they truly connected when Amy decided to reach out to Joe.

Adore You

These lovebirds fi rst met at work back in 2013 in recruitment!

Straight away, Louisa knew he was the one for her! Fast forward time, Carl proposed on Christmas Eve in 2018. It was just the two of them and their French Bulldog Mo at home, so extra special and very intimate. Of course, he got down on one knee!

Effortlessly Elegant

This couple's love story began in 2010 on Hannah's 21st birthday! She says, "I invited my work friend out for drinks to celebrate who already had plans for another birthday, but it turned out we were going to the same place. Mat happened to be a mutual friend who tried to impress me by ordering a big round of drinks, but his card was declined! The bar could only swipe cards, and his magnetic strip no longer worked as it was always next to his phone. This is before contactless; I'm feeling old! His mate had to pay for him, but I don't remember that with it being my 21st. However, this wasn't the first time we had met. We met at another mutual friend's birthday, but I was seeing someone else at the time. I even had a photo of us both that we didn't realise."

Little did the pair know that Laura would end up as one of the bridesmaids and do a reading during their ceremony years later!During a weekend in Devon in 2020, Joe proposed in a spot called Thatchers Point on the coast. Sian says, "It was a lovely surprise! It was good that he chose to do it on the first day as I accidentally left all but one of my outfits at home, so I spent the rest of the weekend wearing Joe's clothes, which would have ruined the pictures."

True Love

These lovebirds met through Tinder and never looked back! Ellie had just moved back home after living in Paris for a year and wanted to meet new people. Besides his good looks, Steve was extremely kind and proactive with arranging dates and remembered little details about her. He comments, "Ellie was great fun to be around from the start; we just made each other laugh all the time. As she had just returned from Paris and wasn't working yet, she would come and meet me during my lunch break, which I really enjoyed!"

As The Sun Sets

These lovebirds met at ASOS in 2017, a few months after Chloe had started at the company. Two of her friends spotted Jack, who had just completed his induction, and they knew he would be her type! Chloe says, "It wasn't long before they acted as our dating gurus, and we shortly exchanged numbers. A week later, Jack organised a brilliant date night at Cote in St Albans, and it was clear after our first date we were attracted to one another. We had lots in common with the same life values."

True Love

Jason proposed in Barcelona, Elle's favourite city, in a secluded area amongst the trees overlooking the city during a picnic.

It was a complete surprise and Jason did well to get through airport security smoothly – his bag usually sets alarms off!

True Love

These lovebirds first met around 10 years ago but lost contact over time. It wasn't until Dom moved back from London in 2018 that he messaged Dan to meet for a drink – it all restarted from there! "Sense of humour is what initially attracted us to one another and as our relationship grew, it was obvious that we had so many similarities", says Dom. He popped the question a few years later during a beach walk with their dog. He says, "There was little romance to it; I asked Dan if he fancied having a wedding and when he said 'yes', I replied, 'Oh that's good because I have a ring'. It was a surprise to Dan but nobody else. I roped in one of his best friends and her husband to find out his ring size, keeping quiet is not one of my strengths!"

Love All Around

Siobhan and Dale first met on a dating website before spending hours together at a pub for their first date. It's safe to say the pair hit it off as Siobhan jokingly messaged a friend saying, 'I just met my husband'. They shared similar interests and weirdly had the same address with a matching door number and road name in different areas. Dale proposed in Devon at South View Lodges in Exeter. Jill, the owner, helped him secure the perfect surprise proposal and then hid in the bushes to get it on camera – of course it was a 'yes' from Siobhan!
