Samuel + Bukky Surprise Proposal | SkyView Atlanta | Centennial Olympic Park | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
August 21, 2014 | showcase, Surprise Proposals | 6 Comments
Hello Everyone! Switching gears today and bringing you an amazing surprise proposal. It’s no secret I love surprise proposals and I have covered a few in the past. This one was special because I happen to know the soon to be bride and groom! I’ve known Samuel for about 10 years so I’ve seen him transition from a teen to a Man. When he told me about his big plan I was so excited and could not wait to capture the proposal. We laid out our plan and with the help of his friends we executed it perfectly. I usually share the proposal story all at once for you to read before viewing the pictures but today I am going to do it differently. I will break the story up and put them next to the image to fits the part of the story best. Congrats to Samuel and Bukky! I wish you both the very best. Check out the images and story below (Bukky’s version). Enjoy!

So I have always loved ferris wheels, so i have been bugging him for months to take me on the Atlanta Skyview (a ferris wheel in downtown Atlanta). He finally agreed to take me on friday and then we planned to head to a friend’s birthday dinner afterwards. On our way to Skyview i noticed that he was acting weird….quiet, not really paying attention, etc. I asked what was wrong and he said he was tired so i let it go. We went on the ferris wheel as planned (LOVED IT! lol)
After he suggested that we walk over to Centennial Olympic Park by the water fountains.
When we got there i told him that we needed to take a break and sit by the benches (My feet hurt, lol).
while we were sitting there i heard our song (Joe-No one else comes close:)) And i looked at him and said it was odd because its a slow song and its an old song for them to be playing at the park.
He suggested we go closer the fountain…
..and when we got down there i saw one of his friends (Dj Ecool) standing behind a speaker
By the time i turned to him and asked what was going on he had started his “proposal speech” and then the tears came! lol.
I saw Steve (Fotos by Fola) with a camera….
He got on his knee…
…. then i heard screaming and shouting and looked up to see a huge crowd of our family and friends running towards us!!!!
Of course i said yes and he put the ring (AKA Rock) on my finger!
We have been dating since we were 16, so it was truly the best moment of my life as the man of my dreams asked me to become his queen just as the sun set in the background, the water fountain erupted, and family and friends cheered and supported us.
