Most Playful Marriage Proposal Ideas

Most Playful Marriage Proposal Ideas

  • Create your own crossword puzzle and be prepared to help her work it out over breakfast.
  • Spell your proposal out in glow-in-the-dark star stickers on your ceiling. Get into bed, turn the lights off, and wait for the inevitable gasp.
  • Spell out your proposal with refrigerator magnets.
  • Scratch your proposal into the frost on her car’s windshield.
  • If your girlfriend is a teacher, sneak into her classroom before school starts and write your proposal on the blackboard. Stay hiding in the coat closet or right outside the room for the moment she arrives.
  • Get a ring size chart and ask your girlfriend to look up her size. When she accuses you of ruining the surprise that you’re shopping for a ring, say, “Okay, try this one instead,” and show her that you’ve already shopped for a ring.
  • During your annual Halloween prep, challenge her to a pumpkin-carving contest and carve the words “Marry Me” in your pumpkin.
  • Write “Will You Marry Me?” on the underside of a kite and take flight one warm, breezy afternoon.
  • Play Hangman and have the phrase be “Marry Me.”
