"If you&amp;#39;re a sucker for a sweet proposal, break out the Kleenex.\nPinterestFacebookFirst, Amber&amp;#39;s side of the story:\nJosh had just gotten back from an Olympics-filled weekend in Vancouver with his friends, and we had planned to have a low-key night so I could hear all his hilarious stories about curling matches, being interviewed by foreign reporters, and so on. I thought he was acting a bit strange all day, making comments about how he really thought we should watch an episode or two of Seinfeld or Arrested Development&amp;#8212;my two favorite shows&amp;#8212;just for fun that night, so it crossed my mind that he seemed to be up to something, maybe even along the lines of a proposal. But then I kept reminding myself that if he were going to propose, we certainly wouldn&amp;#39;t be watching TV and eating takeout for dinner.\nAt his house, he popped in one of my favorite episodes of Arrested Development, starring my favorite character, Gene Parmesan, and suddenly, as we were watching, Josh appeared on screen dressed as Gene. At first I thought it was some sort of augmented-reality trick he was playing on me (he is more tech-savvy than I am and is always trying to educate me about the latest and greatest in technology). But then once Josh Parmesan on screen started dialoging with real-life Josh, I realized this was definitely more than a silly tech trick.\nSo Josh Parmesan on screen conveniently set the mood by turning on one of our favorite songs, and that&amp;#39;s when real-life Josh proposed. I was so shocked the whole time, though, that once I said yes and we had celebrated a bit, I made him start the clip again and reenact the whole thing so that I could actually listen to all the sweet things he had said.\nAnd Josh&amp;#39;s:\nI think the proposal came together by itself. We had purchased the ring over a month ago, I had already talked to her parents, and the challenge was creating a surprise since she knew it was coming. It&amp;#39;s funny because I felt bulletproof after gaining support from her mom and dad, so there was nothing to lose. I also knew that Amber would hate having me propose in public, having her friends ambush her, or do anything that would put her in the center of attention.\nI had to consider something private and simple and the thought of hijacking a DVD on a spontaneous dinner-and-a-show night seemed right. Arrested Development was the winner because the thought of splicing myself in Lost and running through the jungle as a big cloud of black smoke could be frightening.\nMy friend/brilliant director, Michael Stringfield (yes, he gets a shout out), filmed the clip and added it to a faux DVD. He also put an episode before the faux episode on the DVD so we could watch that first and I could calm my nerves leading into the proposal. When my character came on screen, I bantered back and forth with him (reminding him that he had to look for George Sr.!), and Amber was one-third shocked, one-third touched, and one-third I-know-what&amp;#39;s-happening-and-I&amp;#39;m-getting-a-diamond. And the rest is history.\nWanna see the video? Of course you do!\nJosh Parmesan [full song with ending] from josh chang on Vimeo.\nHow amazing was that?!
