COLD place, warm hearts... a young couple confirmed their love for each other when they got engaged on an ice rink.

The magical moment for Sean Vernall and Sammy Chambers happened during a public skating session at Ice Quest, in Spring Lane North, Malvern on Sunday.

Mr Vernall made the romantic gesture after the couple’s favourite Rihanna song We Found Love played.

Everything stopped and he got down on one knee to pop the all-important question.

Miss Chambers accepted immediately with tears in her eyes. Mr Vernall said he was nervous but everything had gone to plan and the rink’s staff had been really helpful in setting it up.

“I was trying to be as romantic as possible.”

Ice Quest manager Mark Sunter said: “This has been our first wedding proposal on the ice rink and it was a very romantic occasion.”

The couple, who are both 26 and live in St Peter’s, Worcester, were presented with roses and champagne.
