The magic words had been ploughed into a field

Nicole Griffiths and Shaaker Azam set up a drone business in Brierley Hill after a Christmas gift of a drone during lockdown opened up a business opportunity.

But Nicole had a surprise of her own when Shaaker asked her to accompany him on a fake job.

They travelled to Cookley, where a local farmer had been persuaded to plough out the words 'Marry Me' in the middle of the field.

Shaaker launched the drone and Nicole could see the wedding proposal from the clouds.

Naturally, she said yes.
