dailyrecord.co.ukIt was the height of romance for a loved-up West Lothian couple who got engaged at the top of the Forth Road Bridge.Connor Robertson (31) proved he had a head for heights when he popped the question to girlfriend Laura Dowds (34).The pair had reached the top of the iconic bridge to help raise money for Barnardo’s Scotland.They had signed up for the charity’s ‘Your View’ event, allows members of the public one of the most sought after and unique experiences in Scotland – namely the chance to ascend 361 feet up the historic bridge and enjoy an uninterrupted 360-degree panoramic view of the Edinburgh and Fife coastline.The couple met in 2020, and Laura admitted that she had no idea that she would be engaged by the time she set foot back on terra firma.She said: “The proposal was a complete surprise!
Connor didn’t even tell me that we were doing the bridge viewing until we arrived in the car “I was stunned to say the least; I couldn’t believe my eyes seeing him down on one knee!
The amazing photographer managed to capture lots of snaps of our special moment, too, and we are so grateful to have these fantastic memories.
We don’t have a date for the wedding yet, as I’m going to let Connor recover from all the work he put into the proposal! But it will be local and hopefully in the next year.
