This might be the cutest proposal video ever...

After dating for over five and half years, Jamin wanted to make his proposal to girlfriend Valerie extra special—so he organized a flash mob to "Marry You" by Bruno Mars in the middle of Downtown Disney!

We love the look on Valerie's face when Jamin joins the mob. Check out the video!

The BG editors are suckers for a romantic engagement story — we haven't stopped smiling since catching this televised proposal at the plaza on The Today Show this morning! We guarantee that watching this adorable video will kick off your weekend on a happy note.

Angela Miller, a longtime fan of the national news show, thought she was on camera to give her boyfriend of nine years, Nathan Rogers, a shout-out for his birthday. Her face registers total shock when he drops down on one knee, presents an ivory box and says, "I want to make you feel as special as you make me feel every day. Angie Miller, will you marry me?"

“I’m freaking out, I’m so shocked,” Miller later told the Today Show while simultaneously crying and laughing. “I had no idea. And that’s unusual because normally he can’t keep a secret!”

Hi, Bridal Guide readers and future blushing brides! I am beyond excited to share my experiences with you as a fellow bride-to-be! Unlike some brides who have had every detail of their wedding mapped out since childhood, I’m truly a wedding planning newbie.

Since I wanted my wedding to reflect my relationship, I held off on deciding the details until I had the groom nailed down (the most important decision you'll make regarding the wedding!) I’ve pictured what kind of dress I think I’d want, but people have asked me questions I'm still trying to answer, like “Will your bridesmaid dresses be long or short?” and “Will you see each other before the ceremony?” However, here’s what I do know: I found the man I will spend the rest of my life with and we have incredibly supportive families who are generously helping us plan an amazing wedding.

My fiancé Corey and I met while studying at Ball State University. After graduation, fate stepped in and we both ended up getting TV news reporting jobs in Evansville, Indiana. A year later, I knew I wanted to marry him and about two years after that, he asked.

1. How much do you earn?
2. How much savings do you have in both a rainy day account and retirement?
3. What's your credit score?
4. What debt do you have? 

A dock overlooking a lake is a picture-perfect location for a wedding ceremony. But we're guessing this isn't the kind of picture Nikki Palluzzi and Jonathan Wagenschutz had in mind when they chose their location!

While taking photos on Sugarloaf Lake in Michigan, the dock collapsed, sending the bride, groom, and bridal party into the water. Luckily, everyone was able to just laugh it off! You can watch it all go down in the video, captured by California-based videographer Jeff Hayward.

Tell us: What would you do if this happened to you?

Patricia Schultz, author of the immensely popular travel tome 1,000 Places To See Before You Die, just updated her book and announced the launch of an iPad app. The cool tool has interactive features such as photo sharing and Facebook linking. There’s also the option to get recommendations on future trips based on your likes, dislikes and previous travels. 

Disclaimer: I LOVE my wedding and I already know it will be amazing. I wish they had a better synonym for the word "regret" because I do not regret these things I'm about to write, I sort of just wish they could be...different?
