Wedding Planner Fakes Ceremony to Propose to Girlfriend

If you ask almost any married man, he'll say that prepping for the big proposal was either easy-breezy or a nerve-racking nightmare. Half the battle is perfect timing, not to mention the need for genuine originality. But what if you already have a leg up by working in the wedding industry, with knowledge of proposals you've heard about or helped to create. How do you propose to the one you love and make it more amazing than the stories you know? One wedding planner was stuck with this question recently and executed something extra-special. He decided to fake a separate wedding, which would act as the perfect stage for his own proposal.

A planner named Jack staged a mock ceremony to propose to his longtime girlfriend, Sophia, the mother of their young daughter. With the help and attendance of friends and family — and, of course, good friends (but noncouple) Chris and Danny — Jack was able to pull "the old switcheroo" on his lady and get down on one knee to pop the question.

The amount of planning and money used to pull the wool over her eyes is not known, but we can only speculate that with the skills of someone who plans and organizes weddings as a profession, things probably had to move quickly and be cost-effective. The entire hoax was documented in a 10-minute video, but the event should be a memory that will last a lifetime.
