An airport proposal is a great way to make a romantic move. To make it even more special, imagine the look on your loved one’s face when they hear your voice this time through the airport PA system. That’s exactly what happened to one lucky woman when her boyfriend proposed in the public place.
The emotional moment took place at O’Hare Airport in Chicago, where Travon Willis’ girlfriend, Julia Johnson, was waiting for her flight. Little did she know that Willis had spent weeks planning a special surprise for her. He had sneakily arranged for his voice to be broadcast over the loudspeakers, just before her departure.
In front of everyone in the airport, Willis started the proposal by saying, We’ve been in love for three years … and in that time, I’ve been struggling to find a way to show just how much I truly care about you. He went on to recite a romantic poem before asking her to be his wife. As Johnson wiped away tears of joy, she said, Yes!
The beautiful moment didn’t end there. Willis presented Johnson with a diamond ring, which he’d previously hidden away in his pocket. The happy couple took a few pictures to capture the moment, then shared them online, where their romantic story went viral.
Johnson’s airport proposal story is a beautiful reminder of the power of love and the joy of sharing a special moment in a public place. It certainly makes that airport a much more memorable one for the couple, and for all the onlookers that witnessed the sweet proposal. Whether it be an airport, mall, or sports event, a public proposal can add an extra pinch of magic to any relationship.
