Luke and Christina met while working at Aviva Stadium with the Irish Rugby team. They even had their first date there. So naturally Luke thought it was the place he needed to propose.

After his introduction, Luke picks Christina up under the pretense that he has to measure part of the pitch (I’m assuming this has to do with his work). Their back-and-forth is so funny because Christina keeps asking him if something is wrong because he’s got a “cheeky grin” on his face (1:35). She even says he acts like he’s been drinking! Little does she know her man is a puddle of nerves.

When they get to the rugby stadium Christina seems worried that Luke doesn’t have permission to be there. Then she’s all confused when he starts telling her where to hold the measuring tape, which she thinks is too small for what he’s supposed to be doing. As she’s distracted, the scoreboard lights up with Luke’s proposal, and he finally points it out to her and drops to one knee (2:45).

Christina, thus far, has one of my favorite reactions to her proposal. The whole time she thinks something’s wrong with Luke, and then when it comes down to it she’s just blown away! Oh, and awesome job Luke for having friends and family waiting up in a box of the stadium. He’s all, “You should call your mom– oh wait, just kidding, your parents are up there! Wave!”
