16 Times Celebrities Helped Regular People Pull Off Epic Marriage Proposals

Film director Brett Lotriet figured out the best way to ask for his Star Trek-loving boyfriend's hand in marriage: by having Sir Patrick Stewart record a supersweet video message for him! Sadly, Patrick wasn't available, but he was able to get the legendary actor's best friend, Sir Ian McKellan, to record the video instead. "Do the right thing," Ian says, before Brett holds up signs saying, "Will you marry me? I want to explore the universe with you." Swoon.
