Proposals are a relatively common occurrence in Stardew Valley, but seeing a proposal that gets creative with the concept can be refreshing. One creative new proposal made between a couple that was already married in real life shows Stardew Valley's potential for cute gestures, especially when they step outside the typical boundaries of the game's romance systems. Although getting the wedding ring to gift to another player can be romantic, taking advantage of the game's primary mechanics to cultivate something special is even better.
Reddit user sweetestshelby shared the in-game proposal made by her real-life husband, which spells out "MARRY ME?" in sunflowers. As sunflowers take eight days to grow, it's not a feat that could be pulled off immediately, but sweetestshelby didn't often check this corner of the farm.
Sunflowers are apparently sweetestshelby's favorite flower, making this a particularly thoughtful gesture. It clearly scored him some points, as landing a popular Reddit post celebrating a romantic gesture shows that it didn't go unappreciated.
The eight-day period needed to pull this off was assisted by the fact that sweetestshelby prefers to spend time in town and taking care of farm animals, letting her husband work on his project...
