Engagement surprise: how to create a custom proposal song

When it comes to planning an engagement, every detail matters — the setting, the timing, and, of course, the emotion. One of the most heartfelt ways to capture that moment is with a custom proposal song built around your love story. With Songilingy, creating a one-of-a-kind engagement track is as easy as following a few guided steps — no musical background needed.

Why a personalised proposal song hits differently

Music has a unique power to express feelings words alone can’t capture. Whether you’re planning to play your song during the proposal, as part of a video montage, or live at your engagement party, a personalised song makes the moment truly yours. It becomes a keepsake you can listen back to for anniversaries and milestones together.

How Songilingy makes it simple

On Songilingy’s creation page, everything is structured and intuitive. You don’t have to think about lyrics or composition from scratch — just share some personal details, and Songilingy does the rest. Best of all, you only pay if you love the result. You can generate free samples, review them, and unlock your chosen version when it’s perfect for your engagement moment.

Step-by-step: How to create your proposal song

1. 1. Select who the song is for

   The first field lets you define who the song is about — typically your partner’s name or your relationship. This ensures your track feels deeply personal.

   • Examples: Fiancé, Partner, Girlfriend, Boyfriend, Alex

2. 2. Choose the occasion

   Since this song celebrates your upcoming engagement, select Engagement from the fixed list of occasions. This helps shape the tone of the lyrics and the emotional depth of the music.

3. 3. Pick one or more genres

   Decide how you’d like your proposal to sound. Romantic Pop is always a favourite, but some couples prefer other styles to match their story or shared music taste. You can also toggle Mix Genres for something more dynamic.

   • Pop – classic and emotional
   • Indie Rock – sentimental with a live energy
   • R&B – smooth and intimate
   • Jazz – timeless elegance
   • Classical – dramatic and cinematic

4. 4. Select the vocals

   Here you’ll choose the voice that best suits your message. You can select Male or Female vocals, or let AI decide automatically for the most balanced result.

5. 5. Enter your description

   This is where your story truly shines. Share the details that make your relationship unique. Think of memories, small gestures, or events that mean something to both of you. These notes inspire the song’s lyrical storytelling.

   • How you first met or your first date
   • Funny or meaningful inside jokes
   • Milestones you’ve shared
   • Why you’re proposing now
   • What you love most about your partner

Preview your engagement song before the big moment

Once you finish those five steps, Songilingy instantly generates samples. You can listen to several options, refining until one feels perfect for your proposal. Then, only if you love it, you pay to unlock your song. No commitments, no wasted effort — just an authentic custom track ready for your milestone moment.

Creative ways to use your proposal song

Your engagement song doesn’t need to live only in the proposal moment. Because it’s built with your story in mind, it’s a versatile keepsake you can use time and again:

• Play it during your proposal — on speaker, in a video, or even with a slideshow of moments together.
• Use it at your engagement party — surprise your guests with your original love song.
• Save it for your wedding — feature it during the first dance, arrival, or in your wedding video.
• Create an anniversary tradition — revisit the song each year as a reminder of your journey.

Tips for a perfect proposal moment

Because your engagement song will hold emotional significance, a few presentation details can heighten the experience:

• Plan the atmosphere – dimmed lighting or fairy lights can match the mood of your track.
• Rehearse timing – cue the song right before you propose for an emotional crescendo.
• Consider recording the moment – you’ll treasure their reaction forever.
