Bruno Mars was in the middle of“Marry You”at SoFi Stadium on October 2 when Lakers forward Ziaire Williams decided the moment was right. He got down on one knee, confetti fell, and model Paris Timan said yes while the crowd erupted around them. The proposal happened during the second of Mars’five shows at SoFi on The Romantic Tour, and the stadium’s cameras captured the whole thing on the big screens.

If the song choice felt inevitable, that’s because it was.“Marry You”has been the unofficial proposal anthem for over a decade, even though it only peaked at No. 85 on the Billboard Hot 100 back in 2011. Bruno Mars didn’t just provide the soundtrack, he unknowingly became the hype man for one of the most cinematic engagements of the year. SoFi Stadium later posted the footage on Instagram, where it quickly got picked up everywhere.

Between the confetti, the jumbotron moment, and a live Bruno Mars performance, it’s hard to imagine topping this proposal setup. Ziaire and Paris walked out of that stadium engaged, and the internet got a new favorite love story in the process. So, be honest: would you want your proposal to be a full stadium production, or something way more low-key? Tell us in the comments.
