The popular guessing game, Taboo, has been a favorite at parties and family gatherings since it was released in 1989. But there’s a good chance it’s rarely, if ever, featured in a marriage proposal. But that’s the creative way Daunta Bell decided to propose to his girlfriend, Christina Hopkins, at her birthday party in Atlanta, Georgia.

Watch the video to see a woman stunned by a game night marriage proposal.

With the party in full swing, Daunta gave out a series of word clues for their friends to guess. Beside him, Christina was completely unaware that the words were forming a message. When the game timer stopped, there was a debate about the score, so Daunta listed the words that had been guessed, spelling out “Will you marry me.” Even then, Christina thought it was a coincidence and all part of the game. But suddenly, the penny dropped as she realized the proposal was for real!
