There are 365 days in any given year that you can choose to propose marriage. While certain dates are more popular than others (for example, Valentine\u2019s Day, or a date that is imbued with personal meaning, such as the anniversary of a first date), there is something undeniably special about selecting the holiday season as the time you will propose. And there are several reasons that this time of year provides the perfect setting for getting to one knee and uttering the question that will change both of your lives forever.<\/p>\n
For one thing, you are surrounded by family and friends. Proposing when it\u2019s just the two of you is nerve-wracking enough, so why would you want to do it in front of others? Put simply: no pain, no gain. Nothing will let her know that you love her more than proposing in such a high-pressure situation. And by including your friends and extended family in your special proclamation of undying love, you\u2019re formalizing the occasion on the spot. Everyone can share in your happiness and it will add extra joy to this magical season.<\/p>\n
In addition, there are so many different ways you can work a proposal into a holiday tradition. You can certainly give the ring as a gift, but if you decide to get a bit more creative you can propose by tying the ring to an ornament (and handing it to your girlfriend to hang on the tree), ask for her hand with a holiday poem, place the ring on top of the turkey, or find some other ingenious way to propose, such as whisking her away on a ski trip so that you can get to one knee in front of a roaring fire at a romantic chalet. In short, the season itself can help you to utter what might be the most difficult question of your life.<\/p>\n
If you want to propose during the holidays but you\u2019re not sure why you should, just remember that it\u2019s the most wonderful time of the year. It is a season filled with love, family, and hope for the future. And if you\u2019re still balking, think of how great you\u2019ll feel starting off the New Year on the right foot, assured that the special relationship you share with the woman you love is secure and that it\u2019s only going to get better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
