A video of a couple's special proposal at a Miami beach being interrupted by an unexpected visitor melted hearts.
TheOne Studio, a party and event planning company in Miami, set up a lavish proposal on the beach for a couple about to become engaged on May 26. The team decorated the beach with a giant heart-shaped arch with red roses. A sign lit up inside the heart asked, "Will you marry me?"
A representative from the company told Newsweek that the woman was stunned. Toward the end of the celebration, the person filming with TheOne Studio noticed a woman walking her dog along the ocean and behind the flower arch.
"I was filming the couple at that moment, but something about the dog's behavior struck me as so unusual that I turned the camera toward her," the employee said. "She suddenly froze, lay down in the sand, and just stared at the couple."
Unable to move her dog along, the owner released the leash. The dog slowly moved toward the couple. She started wagging her tail as she inched closer with a smile forming across her face.

Those involved with the special day originally thought the dog became attracted to the colors and the giant arch, but instead felt the "magic of the moment," and walked past it, going directly to the couple. The delighted couple welcomed the dog and started petting her.
"This couple was very open to the unexpected moment and weren't fazed at all—quite the opposite, they embraced it with warmth," the employee said.
"It honestly felt like the dog was giving her blessing to their engagement—there's no other way to explain that was amazing—it really felt like a little miracle," they said.
