Ashley Liai was just doing something she loved with the love of her life until he surprised her with the best gift of all.
The dancer was at the Millennium Dance Complex, her home away from home, filming a dance routine with her boyfriend Phil Wright.
Surrounded by their dance community, the dancing duo performed the choreographed routine to John Legend’s, “You and I.” Little did she know that at the end of the routine Phil would be on one knee with a ring.
Once the crowd settled down, Phil asked for her hand in marriage. After a proposal like that, of course she said yes!
The groom-to-be took to Instagram to thank everyone who helped me pull off this amazing proposal. “When EVERYTHING doesnt matter but the one you love@ashleyliai ! Thank you @mytypolife for capturing this special moment! Thank you @jinlee205 for allowing to me to share this important part of my life at @mdcdance! Thank you @nikakljun for the last minute hookup! THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND LOVE SINCE. This Night was UNREAL!
Ashley and Phil, who started dating in Miami in 2009, recently celebrated 8 years together and their engagement was just the icing on the cake for their anniversary.
Congratulations to the newly engaged couple!
