This is the moment a romantic boyfriend was captured espresso-ing his love for his girlfriend by proposing where they first met by accident - in COSTA COFFEE. Peter Crowe, 40, proposed to Michelle Mills, 43, in the coffee shop on Monday (12/5) as it was where the pair first set eyes on each other in October 2013. The couple, who have been dating since October last year caused a stir after Costa Coffee manager Dawn Brown, 47, hatched a plan with Mr Crowe. The pair waited for Miss Mills to go to the bathroom before she handed him the ring and announced to the customers what was going to happen. When she returned to the table, romantic Mr Crowe dropped to one knee and proposed.
