It seems as though there's a new viral marriage proposal every week, but this delightful "lip-dub" effort from a Portland actor who called in some help from family and friends is unlike anything we've ever seen.
On Wednesday May 23, Isaac Lamb surprised his girlfriend Amy — a choreographer with a Broadway dancing background — with an elaborate proposal that involved more than 60 people performing down a street. Lamb's brother sat her in the back of a car with a pair of headphones and told her to listen to the song that played.
As the car starts to move, she watches people pop up around her, from a marching band to parent cameos, dancing and lip-syncing along with the song.
What's so charming about the video — in addition to the heart-warming concept and creative choreographed moves — is Amy's infectious giggles and excitement throughout the video. It will make you smile and tear up at the same time. She, of course, said yes.
The video has already reached more than one million views on YouTube.

Timothy Tiah Ewe Tiam snuck up on his long-time love interest, Audrey Ooi Feng Ling, at Neroteca, a restaurant in Malaysia, and began showing her poster-sized printed memes such as Socially Awkward Penguin, Y U NO Guy and Success Kid.
At the end of the meme-ridden surprise, he knelt and confessed, "I'm very nervous and terrified about this, but I love you and I think you're my soul mate. And I can't see myself living without you in my life. Will you marry me?"
This self-proclaimed "Greatest Marriage Proposal EVER" has racked up nearly 21 million views on YouTube.
In the clip, Ginny Joiner (see inset) is attending a movie. What she doesn't know is that her boyfriend, Matt Still of Atlanta, created a movie trailer in which he asks her dad whether he can marry her. After the father says yes, Still entertainingly makes his way toward the theater, bursts through the doors and greets Joiner to propose.
Just six month after posting their proposal on YouTube, Matt Still and Ginny Joiner wed in November 2011.
This video shows highlights from their wedding day, including a moment where the groom appears overwhelmed at the sight of his bride (see 3:26).
Atlanta filmmaker Walt Thompson used LEGOs and stop-motion animation to put a ring on Nealey Dozier's finger.
Thompson reminds us that we're never too old to express ourselves through toys.
Can we just pretend this marriage proposal in New York City's Central Park is real, even though it was fake?
What was described as a proposal using "hidden cameras and special iPhone apps" turned out to just be a promotion: "Since viral videos are both art and science, we wanted to merge both elements to introduce predictability to the videos' success," the video's mastermind Michael Krivicka told Mashable in November 2010. "As part of our 'study' we staged an elaborate marriage proposal in Central Park and fused tech and romance to see how well each would be received if merged."
This guy hacked an EarthBound role-playing game so that the screen would display, "I'm Ness...Wait, no I'm not. I'm Matt, and I love you Liz. Our years together have made for an amazing journey so far, and I want to continue on that road and spend my life with you. Will you marry me, Liz?"
This isn't the first or last time someone proposed via a game. For example, another guy popped the marriage question by hacking Super Mario World.
