Video: Genius or Ridiculous? Is This 27 Minute Proposal Taking it Too Far?

Talk about taking a proposal to a whole new level.

After seeing this, we think we’ve seen it all now.

Director Justin Baldoni has really taken proposals to a new level. He popped the question to his girlfriend Emily Foxler at the Blu Jam Café in LA but in the most elaborate way possible.

“On April 13th I proposed to my girlfriend Emily at the restaraunt where we had our first date [SIC]” wrote the director.

“I told her I was running late, had the restaraunt opened just for her, and set up hidden cameras all around her. When she sat down at the table, there was a TV in front of her set to take her on a journey that would lead to the proposal of a lifetime. [SIC]”

Don’t worry, thanks to the folks at Gawker, they’ve broken it down into handy segments by time – just in case you’re looking for a bit more excitement.
