About this tool
A proposal is a moment where words matter. Choose a classic, romantic, playful or honest tone to draft a message you can adapt for a spoken proposal, a card or a letter tucked into the ring box. Add real memories that only the two of you share.
Tips for getting the most from it
- Rehearse aloud so it sounds like you.
- Include one memory and one promise.
- Keep it under two minutes if you are speaking it.

Many people do. Even if you speak from the heart, a written outline keeps you calm and lets you keep a copy.
Can this draft be used in a card?
Yes. Copy it, shorten as needed, and handwrite it for a personal touch.
