The Roanoke Times (États-Unis)

By the way.

If you're looking for unique ways to propose to your sweetheart in France, www.proposeinparis.com may have the answer.

The French company ApoteoSurprise offers various proposal packages, from a basket delivered with a dove (about $530) to an air show featuring four planes drawing a heart in the sky (about $21,500).

This Valentine's Day, though, the site will deliver its first space proposal (about $6,700). A giant helium-filled balloon will be released and sent above the Earth with an attached video camera filming the journey along with the proposal message.

After the balloon pops and is retrieved, the film will be edited and given to the customer, who will show it to his or her sweetheart.
