Surprise Engagement

Any newly engaged couple can tell you that the only things you need for a successful proposal are a ring, wine and Overboard. Wait… one of those isn’t right. Oh right! You need champagne, not wine!

Earlier today, we played part in a surprise wedding proposal when we sang to an unsuspecting future bride with her now fiance in the Boston Public Garden. As we started singing “My Girl,” her confusion turned to realization as her husband-to-be stood beaming, ring in hand. After a tearful “yes!” the newly engaged couple sat down to enjoy a picnic while we sang “Stand by Me” before giving our congratulations and saying our goodbyes.

Congratulations to the happy couple on their engagement!
