A romantic Irishman surprised his Brazilian girlfriend with this meticulously planned marriage proposal by drone.

Blue Cassidy told his girlfriend, Maria, that they were going to pose on a west Cork headland with a bottle of champagne for a tourism promotional video on April 13.

She believed the picnic, bottle of Champagne and camera-equipped drone were all part of the video promotion.

Cassidy then had the drone operator deliver the engagement ring to him on the stunning headland so that he could pop the question on bended knee.

Maria was thrilled and immediately accepted the proposal from her long-term boyfriend.

The pair are now making wedding plans.

A ROMANTIC Corkman surprised his Brazilian girlfriend with a masterfully planned
marriage proposal by drone!
Blue Cassidy stunned his girlfriend, Maria, when she realised that her
posing by a picturesque west Cork headland with a bottle of Champagne
was not for a special tourism promotion as she initially thought but
rather so that her boyfriend could have an engagement ring delivered
by camera-equipped drone.
The canny Beara native - who operates Rebel Tree Care - had organised
his friend, photographer Niall Duffy, to operate a camera-equipped
drone as they sat enjoying the spring sunshine by an isolated west
Cork headland.
The area boasted stunning views over the rocky coast and sea.
Maria thought she was only going for the picnic with Blue to help
Niall organise a tourism promotion video for west Cork.
She believed the picnic, blanket and bottle of Champagne were all
props and part of the video promotion.
But she was stunned - and thrilled - when the drone landed on the
headland and Blue got down on one to propose to her, engagement ring
in hand.
She clasped her hands to her face in shock before saying 'yes' to her
long-time boyfriend.
The couple are now making wedding plans.
