Farmer Carves Wedding Proposal On The Field Before Flying Girlfriend On A Hot Air Balloon
Farmer Sam Tucker, 24, spent hours carving the words into the ground at his dairy farm in Wellington, Somerset, before taking to the skies
Everyone likes a good proposal and honestly, nothing is off-limits when it comes to how you can propose to your partner. Whether it is an intimate proposal or a grand gesture, the way you ask your significant other to get married is definitely unique.
Sure, they can be a stressful affair - as many tend to overthink the nerve-wracking situation where they ask the love of their life to marry them.
But a farmer's over the top proposal (literally) was mindblowing.
This farmer went viral after ploughing the words 'will you marry me?' into a field before flying his girlfriend over the top - in a hot air balloon.
Sam Tucker, who is 24-years-old ploughed the words into the ground at his dairy farm in Wellington, Somerset.
It took him two hours to make the message - which stretches over 100 metres - using a machine of just three metres wide.
"It was a beautiful day too, which was lucky. October isn't the best month for British weather to do it, but it was a really perfect morning.
He then hired a balloon and flew his girlfriend of two years Megan Wilkins, who is 23-years-old over the countryside before dropping to one knee - and luckily she said yes.
Sam told The Mirror, "I actually proposed in the balloon, I got down on one knee up there.
"I don't know what specifically inspired me to do it, I must have seen it somewhere, but I've had the idea in my head for years, so it's been a long time coming. I think we're planning on having at least the reception in a field. Megan isn't from a farming background but she loves it now."
Sam was helped by Bailey Balloons a hot air balloon company based in Bristol. Jo Bailey of Bailey Balloons said: ¡°Megan was delighted as they took off from his farm and she saw the message straight away and was delighted and said yes."
¡°They then enjoyed flying over Sam¡¯s farm and looking at all of the places where they grew up.¡±
Proposals are an emotional affair and this sure seemed like something from out of a fairytale.
