I put that title cause everyone else on youtube has said something to that extent about their proposal. I don't think my proposal is any less. I'm extremely proud of the video and how everything seemed to just work out. A big heartfelt thank you to the amazing cast/crew of Aladdin the musical at Disneyland.
I've wanted to propose for quite some time but from Vegas to New York the opportunity never really presented itself. I knew I wanted to sing to her.
We've never had "our" song as a couple until I sang this to her while proposing. It's John Legend's "Stay With You." The song had kinda haunted our relationship. It magically plays during important events such as Anniversaries, Birthday's, Valentine's Day, and etc the past several years. It's an older song so it constantly appearing was a sign to me.
I've also been singing it for the past 2 years thinking I would serenade her on our wedding day. I made an abridged version for the proposal (50 seconds). I thought the words just fit perfectly for the occasion.
The part when I ask her what's the magic words and she says open sesame has a humorous back story. One night I opened her car door to let her in and ran around the car to hurry inside because it was raining at the time. She locked me out. I see this devilish smile as she says, "What's the Magic words?" I said please...nope. This continued for some time until I asked her what the magic words were. She said, "Open Sesame!" I proceeded to say them and got into the vehicle. I looked at her, soaked, and said those words will come back to haunt her and hopefully she remembers what the "Magic words" are...luckily she did! :)
I've had a blast editing this video and I hope you all enjoy!
Congratulations

@debtrigg LOL...you are the first to notice. No I didn't. I had to reverse the video cause the pop up screen only shows up on the right. Dawn is luckily short enough it fits above her. So if you look in the pop up video I put the ring on the correct finger/hand. Thanks Debbie!! I appreciate it.
