A.J. Hall, a veteran New York City television producer, organized the most epic proposal for his long-time girlfriend, Nicole Pagano. This was done in Times Square in the heart of New York City, and it coincided with their two-year dating anniversary.
Hall planned a regular date night in Manhattan, where he was able to create a video that appeared on a Times Square massive billboard, with the assistance of the company where his girlfriend worked, with a twist. That video featured photos from their relationship, and at the end, Hall is holding up a sign with the question “Marry Me?”
His girlfriend’s boss served as a facilitator for this proposal, since the boss told Pagano to check out the company’s promotional video on the big screen at 9:15 p.m. that evening. In the meantime, members from both of their families were a part of the Times Square crowd unbeknownst to Pagano, who had arrived on cue, and was in for the surprise of her life.
Once Pagano came across Hall’s “Marry Me?” sign on the large screen that was held by Hall, she was overwhelmed beyond belief with tears and excitement. That was the moment that Hall got down on one knee and asked her the question, “Will you marry me?” with a wedding ring in hand. Pagano instantly accepted Hall’s proposal, and said a resounding “yes!”
When asked how it felt to propose in Times Square, Hall said, “It was surreal! It was much bigger than I ever expected! Right after the proposal, the huge crowd circled around and cheered us on. It was an incredible feeling.”
Congratulations to A.J. Hall and Nicole Pagano!
