Ed, who lives in London, contacted the New York City Pug Meetup group in the hopes he could get a few pugs to help him propose to his long-time love, Alex. He got 16.

While Alex and Ed do not currently own a pug, Alex adores them. She lights up when she sees them and always stops to say hello.

So, this past Sunday, the pugs (and their owners) descended to the Bow Bridge in Central Park on a picture perfect fall afternoon.

Poppy, the pug puppy.

Heart balloons in place, the pugs met Alex and Ed in the middle of the bridge and delighted Alex to no end.

Ed quickly dropped to one knee, and asked Alex to be his wife. She said “yes” and all the pugs cheered and wondered where the hot dog stands were

Alex was thrilled and immediately greeted all the pugs. “How did you do this?!” she said.

Of course, post-engagement photos had to be taken.

Every pug received a special tag to commemorate the epic event.

Ed and Alex say they’ll never forget their afternoon in Central Park with 16 unforgettable furry friends.
