This stranger’s reaction to a woman proposing to her girlfriend is so lovely

Her face!

We’ve seen our fair share of amazing proposals over the years from Lego stop motion to onstage at a musical to using the help of a magician at Grand Central Station in New York.

While we love to see the couple’s happy faces, sometimes seeing those around them react shows just how special the moment really is.

Jessica Rodriguez proposed to her girlfriend Chelsea Miller this weekend at The Art Institute of Chicago in Illinois.

A photo of the couple was taken from the balcony above but one particular detail is melting hearts everywhere.

The photo went viral after Jessica’s brother Carlos posted the picture to Twitter with the caption ”My sister proposed to her GF today and look at that older woman’s reaction”

Over 250,000 people have liked the photo because just look at how happy the lady in the pink looks.

The special moment was also filmed on a phone camera, as Carlos explained that professional cameras aren’t allowed in the building.
