It's Leap Day - will you marry me?

A Nelson woman decided to take advantage of the fact it is Leap Day to propose to the man of her dreams.

Would he say yes or would he run for the hills?

Campbell Live was there to witness the romance and drama of leap day.

A woman has to look her best on the day she is going to seize the day and ask the man of her dreams to marry her.

And just to add to her nerves Hannah has invited us along to film and be witness.

So she is going to propose to Dean on national television - which is very love struck and very bold.

Hannah is organised, the rings has been made by the fine Nelson jewellers who made the ring for the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy.

And then it is out to the scene of the proposal - an island in Nelson's Tasman Bay.

Hannah's been with Dean for eight years, but he has been too slow to propose.

So she is reaching back to Irish folklore which says a woman can propose on a Leap Day February 29.

It is living breathing romantic proof that every so often a woman needs to take a leap of faith.

  • If you love someone and want to marry that people, it shouldn't matter if you're a man or woman -- ask that people to marry you; if you don't ask, you may never get married.

  • A girl don't have to wait 4 years to propose to a man , just do it when you feel the time is ready.

    my wife proposed to me when she thought it's fine for her.
