Donnie McGilvray posted the above photo to Coca-Cola’s Facebook page recently, with the caption: “I asked my girlfriend, Eloise, to put the milk away in the fridge and this is what she saw. The ‘ice’ was in the glass. Thanks Coca-Cola for all the help…she said yes!”
The sweet proposal photo, featuring customized Coca-Cola bottle labels, garnered over 1.1 million ‘likes’ and more than 50,000 shares with commenters gushing at how romantic the gesture was.
Coca-Cola also responded with a photo, as shown below, congratulating the lovebirds.
The soda brand also verified that McGilvray ordered the customized bottle labels through its official page.
Coca-Cola said in a BuzzFeed interview, “All of us at Coca-Cola would like to extend our huge congratulations to Donnie and Eloise on their engagement. We were thrilled to see that Donnie used our personalized iconic glass bottles in such a special and romantic way. That is exactly what ‘Share a Coke’ is all about; creating moments of happiness with the people closest to you. We hope they share a very happy life together and will be sending them some special congratulatory bottles to celebrate.”
