Best proposal songs

If you’re ready to pop the question, you may have considered the major details of the proposal. But have you decided whether to include a romantic song? The Heart Bandits can help you create a magical proposal filled with live musicians or orchestras to capture the depth and beauty of your relationship.

Take a look at some of the most romantic songs to include in your proposal, especially if you’re searching for music-themed proposal ideas!

“Perfect” — Ed Sheeran

This song epitomizes what everyone loves about Ed Sheeran: he knows how to make a girl feel special. You can take his swoon-worthy lyrics and use them as a backdrop during your breathtaking proposal! As you express your affection for her and walk her through a venue filled with her favorite flowers, candles, and photos, this song will make the mood absolutely…perfect.

“Say You Won’t Let Go” — James Arthur

For raw and real lyrics that are beautiful for a down-to-earth couple, “Say You Won’t Let Go” is a popular song that tells the love story of a couple from when they first met until he realized she was the one. It’s the perfect way to start your life together as she says “yes” and James Arthur croons the song’s most well-known lyric: “I want to stay with you until we’re gray and old.”

“All of Me” — John Legend

“All of me loves all of you.” There’s nothing more romantic than these lyrics when you’re trying to plan a romantic proposal. The Heart Bandits can help you find local musicians who can bring this song to life and make it match the vision of your proposal–whether you want a stripped-down version with violins or a solo artist on the guitar to make it even more memorable.

P.S. With John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s marriage as the inspiration for this song, there couldn’t be a better couple to depict true love.

“Marry Me” — Train

You can’t go wrong with a song that has “marry me” as the title, especially if you’re planning to pop the question as the song plays. This song truly says it all, and if you’re not super comfortable expressing your emotions, Train can help you set the scene with this beautiful arrangement.

“Yours” — Russell Dickerson

This song is at the top of the country charts, and for the laidback couple who enjoys country music, this has got to be the proposal song of the year. With heartfelt lyrics like “You put a new heartbeat inside of me, you make me better than I was before, thank God I’m yours,” she won’t be able to stop herself from saying “yes!”
