Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Amber McMillan's marriage proposal went viral. Nick Marino Jr., the soon-to-be husband, proposed to McMillan at the giant Cowboys star, known simply as "The Star," in Frisco. The Cowboys cheerleader defined the moment as "perfect."

"I've been a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader for the last four years, so this is just such a big part of my life. It was perfect to do it there."

The planning

Marino told about 100 friends and family about his plans. In the invite, he was pretty clear about rules that every invitee had to follow to ensure that no one would ruin the surprise.

"On the invite, there was actually a part about how to not ruin a surprise. One, don't tell Amber. Two, don't show up late and if you are late, please text me. Three, don't go to the restaurant where Amber was going to be having brunch!"

Marino bossed around because he had been planning the proposal since June. McMillan is sure that the fiancé could not have done anything better. Cowboys cheerleader said:

"It could not have been any more perfect than it was, even if he would have had any other idea. I don't know if it could have been better. It was just so perfect."

The couple

A couple of years ago, the two met at an event where Marino's nonprofit, TangoTab—a fun, simple way to solve a severe and massive problem, hungriness—was feeding the community. Marino acknowledges it was a setup. He asked a mutual friend to make sure the Cowboys cheerleader was going to be there at the event so he could meet her.

According to the Cowboys website, here are a few opportunities McMillan has had in her life to work with the team:
