It’s a typical story of love at first sight.

“The first time we met I knew she was the one,” says Kyle Davis, a Marine Corps Officer at Camp Pendleton.

His girlfriend Sarah Luymes, a nurse in the ICU, felt the same way about their first date.

“Something about him," she said. "I just thought I might be with this man for the rest of my life.”

And as the love grew over the year, it was time for the next move in the relationship.

Except, Davis thought big and took his proposal idea to Ellen DeGeneres, his girlfriend's favorite TV host.

“I knew she was a huge fan of the Ellen Show and I thought this would probably be a good thing but probably wouldn’t happen … but I thought I’ll write to the show and tell them how great she is,” she said. “Just tell them about us and see where it goes.”

Not expecting to hear back, he was shocked when he got a phone call.
