Kevin wanted to propose to his girlfriend of five years, Marie. The two have been through thick and thin together, and have a young son– so Kevin didn’t want to do just anything. At first he thought he’d just google proposals and do something that someone else had already done, but he decided that just wasn’t his style. When he was looking for ideas, he came across a “whisper challenge” and decided to bring his girlfriend in on it as part of his YouTube channel, unknowingly surprising her with a real proposal.

After a few rounds of playing loud music and guessing what the other person is saying, Kevin says, “Together Forever.” When Marie guesses the right answer (around 6:06 of the video), Kevin says he won. Marie is horribly confused, since she guessed the right answer– but Kevin tells her, “You didn’t answer the question.” He then pulls out a beautiful princess-cut engagement ring.

My favorite part of this proposal is it takes Marie a good two minutes to believe that Kevin is proposing. She even looks around, trying to see if someone is going to jump out and tell her it’s a prank. She keeps asking him over and over if it’s a prank, and it isn’t until the very end of the video (8:30)  where we get another clip of her and she’s crying– finally realizing that it’s for real.
