Students Help Their Teacher Pull Off The Most Adorable Proposal Ever (Video)

by Gillian Fuller

The proposal videos we’ve shared over the years run the gamut from cringeworthy fails to heartwarming, romantic successes.

But if we had to grade them, this teacher’s inspiring proposal to his colleague would probably be the only one to earn an A+.

Jonathan Holt, a high school teacher, got the entire school involved in his elaborate and heartfelt proposal to girlfriend and fellow teacher, Iris.

First, he shared his plan with a classroom full of Iris’ students, and they helped him execute the elaborate surprise proposal he’d planned, all while keeping it a secret from their teacher.

After he proposed — and received a very happy "yes" — Holt brought Iris into the hallway, where he’d arranged for the marching band to perform in celebration of the engagement.

At times, it’s hard to hear what either person is saying, but it doesn’t matter: Iris' ear-to-ear smile says it all.
