For millennials Ring Pops evoke positive childhood memories and ease the stress around popping the question and shopping for expensive rings—and they buck tradition.
When William Jean Paul Harry proposed to his fiancée, Marcella Clarissa, with a strawberry-flavored Ring Pop last August, he’d hoped to forge a “fun memory” that the Jakarta, Indonesia–based couple could always look back on.
Memories live only in the heart and mind, says Bejar. So when they’re tapped through symbolic gestures, like a Ring Pop proposal, one partner is signaling to the other that “they know you intimately, listen to and care about your stories, and value your past and the moments you hold dear.” He’d hidden a strawberry Ring Pop in at the bottom of her Christmas stocking. “And I just looked at it with my mouth open,” the 36-year-old eyelash and brow artist says about discovering it. “I remember saying, ‘Um, what is this doing in here?’” When Wadsworth got down on one knee, she was almost speechless. She was “just laughing, smiling, and saying, ‘What?!’” Wadsworth recounts.When it comes to marriage proposals, more couples are collaborating on the details.
Others want to do away with the ring altogether. Jana Kriesl proposed to her partner Michelle Zumbrink with a Ring Pop last July. The Düsseldorf, Germany–based couple, who have requested their surnames be withheld for anonymity, have always been “non-conventional,” Kriesl says. Plus, the 31-year-old student says, she wanted to honor the fact that Zumbrink didn’t wear jewelry. At first, “that was a bit of a dilemma,” says Kriesl.
