Lauren & Chris' Proposal - (The most romantic, thoughtful proposal you'll watch!)

Wedding video is here!
• Chris & Lauren's Love ... *
Christopher Fordinal and Lauren Rutherford met the winter of 2011 at Texas State University. After three years of dating they found themselves in a long distance relationship (Christopher in New York City and Lauren in Texas). With Lauren's graduation upcoming and the time for the "next step" quickly approaching, Christopher went to Texas with one huge surprise!

[@djdannyluvmusic]

Wow. Just wow, where do I even start to describe the emotional beauty of this proposal. It's not the fact that he went to all those lengths to make it a memorable moment, it was the fact that he put so much authenticity and heart into it. I also love how he makes constant mention of the Lord. God bless both of you. Seeing a man cry during a proposal is rare, but great. Best proposal ever!

[@djdannyluvmusic]

Thanks for telling me! It'll be heartwarming to see that too :)

[@deborahhenon1879]

Loved the proposal also!

[@milayhurtado5560]

I agree. 100% An emotional man who speaks of the lord, is an amazing man!!!

[@isabelisabel7551]

Danny Bale si totalmente de acuerdo

[@michelelyons9314]

Beautiful! The way that Christ loves the church! did the wedding get recorded?

[@jamesbecker875]

We need more guys like this in the world

[@shydreamguyman4098]

James Becker Yes we do...Straight & Gay

[@culu2011]

James Becker Well, the following does not remove the nice aspect of this proposal, nore this guy falls into this category. But, know that there is enough data to say that all these "romantic" and public videos, are very poor predictor of couple staying in love. It is actually the oposite, I will not enter the details of the reasons for that, but you do not need to spend much time searching for published papers to know more. So in a short congrats to them but do not think that someone more humble and not so public is not a great guy, it is generally actually the oposite.

[@laurenrutherford9829]

+Cu LuI can only speak for our relationship and no one else, as his wife and knowing his heart I can honestly without a doubt in my mind say that he is exactly who you see in this video. He is an even better man than he was 4 years ago! Something I love about him, he is always trying to better himself in his love for me! I'm happy I was given this amazing guy! Have to brag there for my guy! Of course he's human and makes mistakes and so do I! No one is exempt from that :)

[@shydreamguyman4098]

Lauren Rutherford I'm happy for you both best wishes

[@jasonmarks1481]

Lauren Rutherford I could tell by the look in his eyes and I could feel his heart skipping beats..I could feel him struggling for his next breath..I of all people know True Love when I see it. I never had problems getting dates, I have a fantastic sense of Humor, I am a Hopeless Romantic, I am a Born Again Christian, I dated a wide variety of young ladies, From Cheerleaders to To the adorable book worms..😀.., And yet it took me until I was 38 years old to feel intimidated for the first time in my life, Of all people ME speechless..When I saw your video and I saw your Husband I saw myself and When I saw you I saw my wife...Seeing the foundation in Christ you 2 built on your marriage has no choice but to succeed. With all the bad news in the world, Divorce, Domestic Violence and the such sometimes I feel that My wife and I are Sometimes the only couple left to know what true love is, Then I saw your Proposal and Wedding Video and my Hope was renewed....God bless you both

[@AudreyCleveland442]

That was so beautiful. Christopher was truly created in the Lord's image and his love is more pure than i've ever seen.

[@MultiCaro2011]

When a guy goes way out for a girl like this, that's love! I love it when He says he was waiting for the Lord to help him find the right girl !

[@itsphoenixyeyo4668]

This is the sweetest proposal ive ever seen...the arrangement was beautiful...To see a man so full of love for his girlfriend is just refreshing and liberating....

[@dorisjaffe3511]

This is one of the most unusual marriage proposals I've seen. Christopher personifies emotional maturity through faith and love. Lauren and Christopher are worthy of each other. May their marriage be blessed with good health, sustenance, inner peace, friendship, and love.

[@marywarf8946]

Amen!

[@angelamcconnell7592]

Amen 🙏

[@sarahs.9340]

I started to cry when i heard him start to explain his special box he had been putting together for her, his whole young life. That what amazing...

[@lovemecom3832]

This is the sweetest guy i've ever seen, i can see in his eyes and in his thoughts how much he loves, respects and cherishes her with all his heart. I love the arrangement so much.

[@randyrobinsonfilms]

Have you seen their wedding video yet?! Chris wrote Lauren a song and serenaded her during the reception! :o

[@michelelyons9314]

is it posted somewhere? could you please share it as well

[@bernita_b]

When a man knows and loves his God, he knows how to love his woman...

[@sharm_ye]

Exactly..If he loves God first, then loving your woman will just come naturally

[@gabylerena]

Wow 🤩 this is special .. God before us ......

[@grisellecolon7308]

Beautiful Love and that Love so Crystalline and pure Come from our Father God It is very Special and blessed to wait on God ✝️and his Divine Will... Love u my 💞Father ⚘🙏⚘

[@anitaguilbault3370]

Allejuiah, yes & God's plan moves forward...

[@BlessedFavoure]

Absolutely.

[@jazjsames5415]

Am I the only one who noticed the Lord of the Rings set in the box? That was the most adorable, romantic, and sweetest proposal I've seen! And if you wish for something like this to happen to you, don't. Because some other man will do it even better because he'll be YOUR man whom you'll cherish so much. You guys are such a beautiful couple and I pray that the Lord will be your number one in your lives. Thanks so much for posting this!

[@ijahlockett4760]

[@Kranzinator28]

[@alejandraarmijo1489]

[@cecilehoffmancecile7083]

I love that God is the center!

[@oliviastraub3462]

This is, by far, the most beautiful and sincere proposal I have ever seen.

[@laurabraye7830]

I have watched so many proposals that say ‘you’ll cry watching this ‘. I actually cried watching yours. May God continue to grow you together in His love

[@pamowen3452]

They are divorced now

[@cherylvanhoosen8881]

This has to be one of the most beautiful things I have ever watched.

[@oliviaboldischar2521]

I am crying. Oh my gosh that was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. The one thing that got me the most was how you, Christopher, brought God into it. God is the biggest part of my life. I can not wait until I meet someone who loves me this much!!! Congratulations!!!

[@laurenrutherford9829]

+Olivia Bold He is out there girlie! Let the Lord hold onto you and your heart until he shows you the right guy. He is worth the wait! I waited 3 years to fully be with my husband because I knew it was all worth it and it was :))

[@melodichomage1832]

Olivia Bold The one for you is on the way. Keep the faith, and remember that with God, ALL things are possible. In Jesus’ ABLE Name, Amen.

[@susanchacko3067]

Amazing...love from the heart

[@normalbaldridge3579]

I have watched so many proposals, in fact I binge on them and this above all I have seen is so powerful and so worthy of praise, I pray God's blessings over your lives and will watch this more after I stop crying. Thank you for sharing this and again this is the best.

[@aesthetica350]

I love the way he was shaking while talking to her. He loves her so much. Lauren is a very lucky girl. God bless you both. Peace ✌

[@Kranzinator28]

That journal is the SWEETEST thing

[@penguinbabeez]

If the wedding video is half as emotional and awesome as this proposal video was, I might just be a crying mess in no time flat. This was absolutely beautiful :')

[@CAM-to6wy]

Crying like a baby. This is the most beautiful proposal I’ve ever seen. His love for the Lord and how it permeates every area of his life is moving. To tell her that his love for her showed him a glimpse of God’s love for him brought me to sobs. Following my divorce from a man who was unfaithful more times than I can count, I prayed and hoped God would send someone like this to me. Instead, He has taught me to be content with where I am in Him.

[@sophieeffyvazquez2070]

OMG that was the most beautiful proposal I have ever seen. I cried! you guys make a cute couple.

[@sheldonalan]

Just beautiful...faith, love and creativity, sensitivity and honesty...two beautiful, lucky people!

[@nicoledoria5826]

The best, most heartfelt, romantic and raw emotion proposal ever!! Speechless

[@gabriellemould4885]

"Most romantic, thoughtful proposal you'll watch!" is an understatement

[@gabriellemould4885]

I don't even know of a better one but it made me cry.... maybe it should come with a disclaimer.... I know that if this happened to me I would not think twice about saying yes.

[@sharm_ye]

I gues i ll just download this and keep it as a reminder , (whenever my single self feels lonely )..that there s someone somewhere meant for you and its worth the wait....its the sweetest proposal i have ever watched

[@shalleey]

Sameeee. 😭. In God’s perfect timing, everything will work out. 🙏🏾

[@pattiearehart118]

There are not enough men in the world like this guy! I hope she realizes what she has acquired.

[@sheilahill5492]

Could not stop crying! Happy tears. Sweetest, most romantic proposal I have ever seen. Never heard of a guy that in love and letting God pick his bride

[@debbiemaslo3806]

There’s always a reason we stumble upon things and me stumbling upon this video was not a coincidence. ❤
