This emotional video captures the moment that a devoted filmmaker used his girlfriend's favorite movie—Sleeping Beauty—for his marriage proposal.
It's not every day you get to propose to your High School sweetheart. For the past six months I've been working with @kaylacoombs to animate @stutzd4 and myself into her favorite movie, Sleeping Beauty. The only thing better than seeing the smartest person I know completely dumbfounded was knowing we'd get to live happily ever after together. ❤️ Enjoy!

It's not every day you get to propose to your high school sweetheart—which is why filmmaker Lee Loechler made sure his marriage proposal was extra special.
Hearts are melting across social media after Loechler proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Sthuthi David, by reanimating the ending of her favorite film: Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty.
It took six months of work to animate the scene and arrange for the movie screening to take place. Loechler started by contacting the Coolidge Corner Theater in their hometown of Brookline, Massachusetts and asking if they could host a fake film screening for the proposal—and the theater was more than happy to accept.
After that, Loechler made a Reddit post asking for 20 strangers to attend a free screening of Sleeping Beauty so that David's closest friends and family could hide in the back of the theater and watch the proposal unfold without being recognized.
Since Loechler also knew that inviting his girlfriend to the screening would invite suspicion, he forwarded a fake email announcement about the movie screening to David through her mother. A few days later, David's mother casually mentioned that she had bought tickets for the family to attend the screening—and to Loechler's "delight", David invited him to her own surprise proposal.
The movie then played itself out as it normally would—except when it got to the scene where the prince kisses Princess Aurora, David was visibly confused when the skin and hair colors of the animated characters started to change.
The on-screen prince then held up a ring and tossed it into the air so that Loechler could "catch it" from the front row of the audience and get down on one knee for what was potentially the most heartwarming fairytale ending in history.
Needless to say, David accepted Loechler's proposal to live happily ever after. Not only that, their video of the proposal has racked up more than 6 million views since it was uploaded to YouTube back in December—and it's not hard to see why.
