Want something different from the usual "snap open the ring box" technique? You’re in luck! The holiday season seems to stir up everything sentimental—including lovely marriage proposal Christmas ornaments.
So why not plan a sweet tree-trimming date with just the two of you (or make it a family surprise, if parents or siblings are around). Then, innocently hand over one of these tree baubles that "pops the question" for you. And have the ring on hand, of course, to slip on her finger when she says “Yes!” This will truly be a Christmas to remember! (*this post contains affiliate links)
