WATCH: Could This Be The Cutest Marriage Proposal To Ever Happen In Dublin?

Alana Laverty

We’re suckers for a good proposal video and can often be found hunched over our laptops, tears dripping on the keyboard, sobbing. 

So when we spotted this super cute video taken today in Dogs Trust’s Rehoming Centre in Finglas, well you can just imagine what kind of state we were in. 

A year and a half ago, Thalita Soares, who is originally from Brazil, met Karl McGarry at a bar in Dublin City Centre and they immediately hit it off. It wasn’t long before Karl knew that Thalita was the one he’d like to spend the rest of his life with so he decided to propose. 

Karl wanted to do something unique and dog-themed for Thalita as she is such a huge dog lover, so he contacted Dogs Trust and asked for their help. After hearing how much Thalita misses her family’s rescue dog ‘Chocolate’ back in Brazil and how she Skypes him all the time, they just couldn’t say no.

Watch the video below to see how it all went down: 

Karl told Thalita that he had a surprise planned and brought her to Dogs Trust where he revealed he had organised a tour of the Rehoming Centre as her big surprise – what Thalita didn’t know is that Karl had an even bigger surprise planned!

Following a special tour of the centre, the couple were taken into the centre’s training barn for Thalita to meet some puppies. Unbeknownst to Thalita, Karl had delivered a ‘Will You Marry Me’ poster a few days earlier and this was pinned to the back of a table which was swung around as Karl got down on one knee and asked Thalita to marry him.

Adorable.
