Eight Holiday Proposal Ideas
Ready to pop the question but need some help to make it a story she'll gush over for years to come? We're here to help...
- Plan a night in to watch your favorite holiday film. Make a bowl of popcorn and place the ring at the bottom. When the popcorn’s almost done, grab the ring and propose. Make sure you don't eat the ring.
- Find a big box and several smaller ones that can all fit inside each other. Wrap up the ring box and place it in the larger box and wrap that as well. Continue until all the boxes are wrapped. When she’s opening the gift and glaring at you for all the work she has to do, smile and tell her it’s going to be worth it.
- Take her out for a nice dinner at a romantic restaurant. Leave room for dessert and have the waiter bring the ring box on her dessert plate.
- Prepare a special, romantic holiday dinner for the two of you, complete with champagne and several delicious courses. And don't forget the candles. Place the ring in the bottom of the champagne glass and pour the bubbly over it. Watch her eyes light up when you hand her the glass.
- Put up the Christmas tree when she isn't home, only without any ornaments. Tie a string around the box and hang it on the tree. When she sees the box, prompt her to open it.
- Hide the ring somewhere she'll be sure to find it during your morning holiday routine, such as in the sugar bowl or in her coffee cup. Make sure you’re there when she’s making breakfast and ask her to marry you.
- Make a plan to put up the Christmas tree together. Attach the ring to an ornament and put it back in its box. When the tree is fully dressed, tell her there’s one more ornament and hand the box to her.
- Throw a New Year’s Eve party and let those attending know that you’re planning to propose. Pop the question in front of everyone when the clock strikes midnight.
