One man, whose wife is a high school principal, used her school’s prom as an occasion to give her a sweet surprise.
For high school students, proms are a big, big deal. There are tuxes, fancy and expensive dresses, after-parties and sometimes even limousines. Within the last couple of years, simply asking someone to prom has become an event. Promposals, where people come up with elaborate and extravagant ways to ask someone to the annual dance, have exploded in popularity.
A video posted to social media may not be the most elaborate promposal in the world, but it’ll still melt your heart. In the video, a man wearing a tux stands off to the side of a set of double doors and holds a bouquet of flowers. Seconds into the short video, a handful of people appear, likely they know what is coming and want to witness the sweet gesture.
Then a woman pulls the door open as the high school principal, the man in the tuxedo’s wife, walks through the door. She thought she was simply on hand to chaperone the fun-filled night for the school’s juniors and seniors.
However, she’s immediately surprised by her husband with the flowers. It’s clear from her reaction that she is taken aback by the touching display of emotion from her obviously loving husband.
The two exchange words, but between all the oohing and awing from bystanders, it’s impossible to pick up on any part of their conversation. They eventually share a loving embrace.
Before the video concludes, someone directs the happy couple to “turn this way” in order to capture photos.
What a sweet, kind and loving gesture from a thoughtful husband. Hopefully the happy enjoyed their night with plenty of dancing and food.
