I&#8217;m assuming it&#8217;s a common anagram and someone in the comments just mentioned it.<\/p>\n<p>It was awesome to see how Sara&#8217;s expression slowly changed after looking through the top pane. First she was surprised to see that the weird objects actually formed letters and words. Then it semi-hits and she&#8217;s shocked when she realizes the artist wrote the message, &#8220;Will you marry me?&#8221; . Then when she sees George kneeling on the floor and realizes the artist was George, she becomes super shocked. Then everyone&#8217;s happy.<\/p>\n<p>I pointed out that there was a bottom looking pane (which probably saw nothing), but was meant for George to get in position (kneeling) and hold out the ring. Very sweet.<\/p>\n<p>Too bad they didn&#8217;t have real live footage of actual revealing, though the pictures did reveal a lot. Then again with these snapshots of freeze in time, it did have a very strong feeling of capturing the moment. Overall, it was a fantastic wedding proposal.<\/p>\n<p>If you enjoyed the soundtrack, the song is actually called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/S%C3%A6gl%C3%B3pur-Sigur-R%C3%B3s\/dp\/B000G03RKY\/?tag=krunk4everblog-20\">S\u00e6gl\u00f3pur<\/a> by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/search-handle-url\/105-6677695-3894012?%5Fencoding=UTF8&amp;search-type=ss&amp;index=music&amp;field-artist=Sigur%20R%C3%B3s&amp;tag=krunk4everblog-20\">Sigur R\u00f3s<\/a>.
