The cutest and most majestic proposal | Photo: Twitter @ScorpiiAlpha
Over the weekend, couple Lyd and Meg became engaged on a mountaintop in New York. And it was truly magical.
Meg posted photos from the big day to Twitter. Already her original tweet has received over 65,000 likes and nearly 11,000 re-tweets.
In the tweet, she explained over the last four years they’ve taken photos of their adventures together.
Throughout their weekend hike in Minnewaska State Park, Lyd had Meg stand for photos, looking out at the stunning views. Finally, once they reached the peak, Lyd told Meg to look at the photos and see how they turned out.
That’s when she saw it…
For four years Lyd & I have been taking instant photos of our adventures together, and on our weekend hike she suggested I stand looking out at the view for the photos-
At the top of the mountain she said, “let’s look back at our photos to see if they developed properly” and.. pic.twitter.com/eDabZgUwcL

Turns out, there was a very special reason Lyd wanted Meg to stand for photos. That reason? To execute the perfect surprise proposal.
The photos are absolutely perfect. The Polaroids are a great idea and the two look ecstatic together, showing off the engagement ring and kissing happily.
As Meg explains in the next tweet, the ring is made of sterling silver and shaped like flowers and branches. It has a rainbow moonstone set in it.

She also posted photos from the hike itself and it really was beautiful.

Lyd quote re-tweeted Meg’s tweet revealing the news, adding she had a whole speech as well. However, she ended up crying through it.
(She generously left out the part where I tried to give her a loving speech but I pathetically wept through the entire thing)
Meg is the most perfect person in the world and I’m so lucky to have grown up with her, moved in with her, and soon marry her 💕💍 https://t.co/LuRTevl451

Others praised them for setting a great example.
I just burst out crying on the bus seeing this. Absolutely wishing you two happiness! And I hope maybe someday I can feel how you feel. Seeing things like this really gives me inner strength to not be ashamed I like women. Thank you for being a heart-warming example for me.

Finally, Meg tweeted that since the first reveal, she’s become more ‘cavalier’ in telling people about the engagement.
Im starting to get more and more cavalier about the news the more people I tell pic.twitter.com/9NJrsNcqMk
