American pop star Taylor Swift has announced her engagement to Travis Kelce, a Kansas City Chiefs player. The couple shared a joint post captioned: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Swift’s relationships have always been in the public spotlight, often serving as the inspiration for her chart-topping songs. Now, with her engagement in the spotlight, fans and non-fans alike are taking notes from Mr. Americana himself on how to stage the most magical proposal.

From the dreamy backdrop to the little hidden detail of the letter “T” on her ring, Taylor’s engagement has set the bar for future proposals, creating a cultural shift that will go down in history. In 2025, basic proposals are officially over. Here’s how to make your partner says yes and stay, stay, stay.
A detail only fans noticed: Kelce recreated Taylor’s “Secret Garden,” the dreamy backdrop from her songs “I Hate It Here” and “The Garden”. Inspired by the book The Secret Garden, the space represents safety and escapism, literally brought to life.
When planning your proposal, it’s all about personal details. First meals together, secret rendezvous spots, whatever makes it uniquely yours. Make it more than just a proposal; make it a story.

You may not go viral like Taylor, but a few well-captured photos never hurt anyone. Swift’s proposal proves the value of preserving your love story.
In the era of social media, it’s not about likes. It’s about memories. Hire a good photographer, enlist five close friends, and capture candid, timeless moments you’ll cherish for decades.
Taylor’s ring is everything we hoped it would be. Featuring an Old Mine Brilliant Cut diamond, the Victorian-era-inspired sparkler perfectly channels the sentiment of You Belong With Me.

The elongated rectangular cut is already the look du jour and it may define the trend of the century. Paper rings are sweet placeholders, but your dream diamond? Look no further than Taylor’s Instagram for inspo.
“I’ve loved you three summers now, honey, but I want ’em all.” – This is the energy every proposal should have: intentional, authentic, and celebratory. Take it from Taylor and Travis: say “forever” in a way that is uniquely you.
