Ok I think Daniel wins the sneakiest proposal of the year award! 🥇


His soon to be fiancée Emily was on a girls trip to NZ for a long weekend. They were staying in Queenstown but wanted to head up to Tekapo to see all of the lupins in bloom.


Little did Emily know, Daniel had actually flown over to NZ and was going to be hiding out in Tekapo with a big surprise 🤭


We found the perfect spot with a tree for cover. So will the girls wandered down to the lakefront to get photos, I was with a friend pretending to take photos of her and the dog. I was asked to take a group photo, which I did and then Daniel appeared out of the trees and asked Emily to marry him!


Did Emily go into shock? Maybe a little bit. Did Emily say yes? You bet she did! It was a really fun afternoon and once all of the nerves, excitement, pressure were gone they had a beautiful day for a drive back to Queenstown to celebrate!
