Robbins Bros. and Aquarium of the Pacific Fulfill a Marriage Proposal Wish with new "Catch a Wave Exhibition05/30/07 Huntington Beach Contest Winner Proposes with Diver Assistance WHO & WHAT On May 30, 2007, Robbins Bros., World's Biggest Engagement Ring Store® partnered with Aquarium of the Pacific to make a couple's engagement dream come true. In celebration of the Robbins Bros. exclusive concierge service, Perfect Proposals™, one lucky gentleman, Kevin Coke of Huntington Beach, proposed to his girlfriend Dawn Salter at the aquarium's new Catch a Wave exhibition.
At the end of the Tropical Reef Habitat, presentation, Kevin & Dawn were asked to take pictures. With their backs facing the exhibit, a diver swam down with a laminated "Will You Marry Me?" sign in big bold red letters. When the couple turned to face the divers, Dawn saw the sign and Kevin dropped to bended knee to ask for her hand in marriage. Dawn immediately began crying and hugged Kevin, while her parents who tagged along were equally surprised and filled with joy. There was not a dry eye in sight. THE COUPLE'S STORY We met two years ago through eHarmony.com. I love her sarcasm and intelligence. We have great conversations and we both love to play board games, Scrabble and Boggle are two favorites. I admire her general ability to roll with the punches; she usually does not let things trip her up. My nutrition level and general diet has improved dramatically because of her, and I love someone I can share my day with who will always show me respect, care and concern. I can't wait to propose to her! |
