Oasis\u2019s opening night at Murrayfield was a magical night for thousands, but it was even more special for two Scots who got engaged.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dwayne Yuill shocked his girlfriend, Shell Hodge, when he got down on one knee during their favourite Oasis song at the band\u2019s first comeback gig in Scotland on Friday.<\/p>\n

The moment was captured on camera, which was all part of the 38-year-old\u2019s plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, we got to the venue and Shell had no idea what was going to happen, so I told one of the stewards when I was going to propose and asked if they could capture it for us,\u201d he told STV News.<\/p>\n

The couple, from Dundee, got tickets for the band\u2019s first Scottish show in over 16 years to celebrate Shell\u2019s 40th birthday, but she had no idea what else Dwayne had planned.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had no idea, I thought he was acting a little bit shifty, he kept touching his pocket, and I was wondering what he was doing, and I obviously know now,\u201d Shell said.<\/p>\n

Despite the plan being executed to perfection, Dwayne said he didn\u2019t plan for how much their proposal has blown up online.<\/p>\n

\"TheShell HodgeThe couple have been together for six years. Shell Hodge<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were in Starbucks and our phones just started blowing up with tags, so we had a mad dash to tell our family before they saw it online,\u201d Shell said.<\/p>\n

The pair, who share a daughter and have four children from previous relationships, said they have both always had a special connection to Oasis.<\/p>\n

Shell has been a fan from a young age, and Dwayne was introduced to the band by his late brother.<\/p>\n

Dwayne added that it felt like his brother was with him, watching down on him during the night as he geared up to pop the question.<\/p>\n

As for choosing the perfect song, Dwayne said it was the lyrics that made him propose during Slide Away.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had a lot of good memories to that song, and it\u2019s one we\u2019re always singing in the car,\u201d Shell added.<\/p>\n

Dwayne added that choosing the song meant he had to wait until Oasis decided to play it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was more nervous the closer I got, I didn\u2019t have the set this so I was just waiting for it to come on, and I didn\u2019t know when it was going to be coming,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen the song was over and the proposal was done, I felt like I could relax.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the couple has yet to start wedding planning, they both know what the first dance song will be.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think people will be disappointed at this point if we don\u2019t have Slide Away as our first dance song,\u201d Shell added.<\/p>\n

\u201cBucket hats will be compulsory on the big day.\u201d<\/p>\n
