GUEST PROPOSES TO HIS GIRLFRIEND DURING THE BRIDE AND GROOM'S FIRST DANCE
GUEST PROPOSES TO HIS GIRLFRIEND DURING THE BRIDE AND GROOM'S FIRST DANCE DENVER, CO — Marcus Aldean Whitby, 31, was quietly asked to leave a wedding reception after dropping to one knee and proposing to his girlfriend on the edge of the dance floor while the bride and groom were still mid-song for their first dance as a married couple. Guests said Whitby had been building up to the moment all evening, positioning himself and his girlfriend near the same corner of the dance floor for photos. When the DJ dimmed the lights for the couple's song, he pulled out a ring box and got down on one knee just a few feet from the newlyweds, drawing gasps and phone cameras away from the actual first dance. Event staff say Whitby had planned the timing with real intention, and cited the following details from the reception: A ring box hidden in his jacket pocket since arriving at the ceremony A photographer's assistant redirected mid-shot to capture the proposal instead A playlist request submitted earlier in the night for "a slower song, if possible" A text sent to his girlfriend's sister reading "get your phone ready during their dance" A toast note found later reading "figured the timing would already feel romantic" "I've coordinated first dances for sixteen years and choreographed plenty of surprises," said wedding planner Colette Marsh. "I've never had a guest hijack the newlyweds' own spotlight for his own proposal." The DJ booth declined to comment on the song selection, though staff confirmed the couple's first dance was cut two minutes short. He wanted a moment of his own. He borrowed theirs to get it.
