When it was time to pop the question, Dan Collado did it right. Not content with proposing to his girlfriend of three years over a candlelit dinner in an expensive restaurant, Dan is set to propose to Trina Martinez in their favorite cinema at Power Plant Mall.
The idea came about when the couple was having dinner at a restaurant and unexpectedly, the lights went out. "Ang cool siguro when the lights went back up and you suddenly had a diamond ring in front of you, huh?" Dan recalls.
What Trina initially thought was an all-girls’ night out on her 27th birthday last February 2, turned out to be part of Dan’s elaborate plan.
In Trina's words: “I haven’t heard from him the whole day. I had no idea that he was also inside Cinema 6 at the showing of 27 Dresses. Then a movie trailer was shown and at first, I thought it was just another new movie that I hadn’t heard of. When my name came out on the big screen I instantly knew and I started to cry…I already knew he was going to propose to me.”
Afterwards, the lights came up, Dan knelt on one knee, read a very beautiful letter, proposed, and gave Trina the ring. Of course, Trina said, “Yes!” Now, the couple is set to wed in mid-2009.
Getting down on bended knee must be incredibly nerve-wracking, so props to the guys who plan special proposals like this!
