An Irishman enlisted the help of a magician to pull off one of the greatest proposals we’ve ever seen

And to top it all off it was in Grand Central Station, New York

Cassie Delaney

She really didn’t see this coming.

Romantic Micheál knew it would be tough to surprise his girlfriend Aoife with a proposal during their trip to New York last year. Organised Aoife had planned their trip exceptionally well and so for a proposal to remain a surprise it would have to be spur of the moment.

Micheál had the genius idea to contact a magician prior to their trip and enlist his help.

The magician nonchalantly stops the tourist pair and conducts a clever and cute magic trick in which the couple’s cards become stuck together.

Then, he asks Aoife if she has a wish for her trip and magically a card appears with a special message.

The proposal happened this day a year ago and the couple are preparing to walk down the aisle in two week’s time.

If the wedding is anything like the proposal, this will certainly be one unmissable celebration!
