Girls: Ever dream of how you would be proposed to?
Guys: Ever wonder how you would propose to that
special someone?
Because
they started to allow pets on board a few years ago, Lovine thought he’d
propose to his long distance love, Kat, via a mid air serenade and with their
pet dog as an accomplice!
Lovine
recalled the plan as simple – he wanted the place and time to be
unexpected. So, he thought why not
magically show up on the same flight as Kat on her way to Burbank [to visit
him]. Feeling ready, he took an early
afternoon flight into Oakland in hopes to catch a later flight back to Burbank
- the same one as Kat. With the help of
the Southwest Airlines team, he was right and made a good choice!
By
blocking off an entire row for him to hide and giving him quick status updates
on Kat, Lovine knew it was going to be perfect!
When he found out she was passed out in aisle 5, he acted. He created flyers with the lyrics to their
favorite song, “Real Love” by the Beatles and implemented the illustration Kat
had designed on the front cover. Each
passenger received one; so, each person knew what was happening.
As
Lovine made his way down the aisle towards Kat, singing their song and
strumming his guitar, she woke. After
her initial confusion, she smiled and Nickle (their dog) appeared wearing his
cute airline steward pillbox hat with a ring attached! Lovine bent down on one knee and popped the
question. Of course, Kat said yes! J
To
show his gratitude to the crew, Lovine posted the following to his blog:
Thank you, Flight 2363. Thank you, Southwest.
I have so many things to be thankful for today, and overwhelming
gratitude to everyone who helped me get on board Flight 2363 (undetected).
The most blessed thanks, of course, to my wonderful fiancée for
saying yes.
The
free-spirited couple later wedded in the middle of Death Valley, where Nickle
served as the ring bearer! To read the
