It would have been so romantic....if it had gone as planned.
A man in England. planned the sweetest wedding proposal for his girlfriend, including wine, 60 balloons and 100 tealights, spelling out "Marry Me."
Unfortunately, when he left their apartment to get his soon-to-be-betrothed, he returned home to find the apartment on fire and the fire department on their way!
Happily, no one was injured, and according to Fox News, all that was destroyed was a laptop, a speaker, and some books. And the best part? She still said yes!
South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue shared the story, reminding people to extinguish candles when you're done with them, keep them away from flammable items like curtains, and never to leave hundreds of tealights unattended.
