I typically hate surprises, but dang… Christmas Eve, at my favorite* place (in the world), in front of my whole family…. Good move sir! You truly treat me like a princess. #isaidyes #happiestplaceonearth #disneyengagement #beyoncesaid A photo posted by Whitney Atwell (@blowingyourmind) on Dec 25, 2016 at 7:36pm PST

2016 was a year full of memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life, but I must say out of all of my top moments, THIS was by far my favorite…watching my boyfriend get down on one knee and propose in the happiest place on earth was a feeling I will never forget. Thank you for making my dreams come true Tyler. I love you. Happy new year everyone!

One year ago today I was heading to the Magic Kingdom with my family, only to be surprised by my best friend and asking me to marry him. It was the BEST DAY EVER, and the most magical surprise of my life. A photo posted by Cassidy Dallas (@disneyworldsweetheart) on Jan 12, 2017 at 11:48am PST

This weekend has been the most magical weekend of my life. After 500 days of dating*, this handsome man asked me to marry him. It was of course incredibly romantic. We spent the day at the Magic Kingdom and after Wishes, a rainstorm, and the brand new projection show Once Upon A Time, a cute Photopass Photographer named Gina came up to us and said “You two are so cute! Can I take some pictures for you?” She took some normal pictures, and then Brant got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I of course told him yes. I’m so grateful that I decided to become his shield during a ridiculous game of toilet paper dodge ball so that we could meet and become best friends. I can’t believe that I got the Most Magical Proposal in the Most Magical Place on Earth! Thank you everyone who helped make this happen (Kristen and Tianna especially) – and for my roommates and friends who gave us silly presents and popped out to celebrate with us. And thank you Disney College Program for helping make not only my work dreams come true, but my personal ones as well! ~ I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend.~ *well 499, but 500 sounds better 😉 More pictures on Facebook. #disneyproposals #DisneyWorld #featuremeDCP

My best friend and love of my life made all my dreams come true by promising to stand by me for the rest of our lives at my most favorite place in the whole world. Bernard, I love you more than anything and I am so grateful for everything that you do for me and for us. Life truly is all about timing and what God has planned for you. #bernifer #engaged #justsaidyes #jkwonbecruzin A photo posted by Jennifer Kwon (@jenniferkwon) on Aug 1, 2016 at 4:54am PDT
