Question

Is there a prohibition against making a marriage proposal, known as a proposal, with or without a ring, when it is clear to both parties that it is not intended as a marriage but merely as a ceremony?

Answer

Shalom and blessings

This is not a custom originating from Jewish tradition. 

However, there is no prohibition if it is explicitly stated that this is a proposal and not a kiddushin.
