Roy, for his part, posted a behind-the-scenes shot of the big moment on Facebook:

Along with the moment that she said “yes!”

Here’s a closeup of the rock sitting pretty atop on one of the most difficult rocks to surmount in the entire world, but they did it! We’re guessing it’s an apt metaphor for marriage?

According to Alyanna, “He proposed once on my birthday [this] Dec. 3 at [Mt. Everest’s] base camp and we only announced it to everyone last night at my event. Before that only close family and friends knew.”

Alyanna’s younger sister Alissa Martinez also made the announcement last night on Instagram:

Erratum: At 9:30 a.m., the article originally implied that two proposals that occurred; first in Manila right before Alyanna Martinez and Roy Macam left for Nepal, and again at the base camp of Mt. Everest. This has since been corrected in the version above.
