Hang the ring on the Christmas tree with a red satin ribbon. Put it in a conspicuous spot. Then tell her there's a special present on the tree for her.

If there is ANY chance she might so no, then scrap the idea of doing in front of family. Or--even if you know she will say Yes, do it before you go over to whoever's house you go to for Christmas Eve. Then, she won't be embarrassed being the center of attention (unless she is like me and loves that kind of stuff) and she can show off her ring to everyone before gifts are opened and when things are not so chaotic.
I guess my point is, try to keep it separate from the actual Christmas...make it an engagement ring--not just a gift.

Well, the first idea that will come to many of us is to give her a gift, you know "ahead of time" after dinner. But do not giver her a small box, she will figure it out immediately. Put one box inside another, inside another and so on until she gets to the ring box.
Or say "hey honey, look up, we are standing a mistletoe" but it is not, it is really a ring.
Or say I made a special desert for you and take it covered to her at the table and when she takes off the lid, she will see the ring with chocolates and strawberry around them.
Or have someone dress-up as Santa Clause with him announcing that he has a "special delivery" for her and take it from there!!
Or just do the "fashion thing," and knock her socks off! Call everyone attention, say you want to do a toast, look deep into her eyes, tell her how much you love her and so on and then SLOWLY get down on one knee and "pop the question."

If you don't have a ring, quickly go to a pawn shop and buy one, wrap it int a big box. Before you open gifts, have someone deliver a dozen roses to her (this can be an unamed friend) with the question on the little card. She will open that card in front of her family. If she says no take the christmas gift box when you leave. If she says yes, the sparkle will again be present when she opens the box. Good luck

DO NOT PROPOSE IN FRONT OF FAMILY>
Ugh, this is a private moment for the two of you, and shouldn't be done in front of others. Ick. AND are you sure she is going to say yes? if she says NO in front of other people, how embarassing.
ALSO did you KNOW that an engagement ring i a BINDING CONTRACT and considered a legal entity. IF you should ever break up, she is entitled to give you the ring back - UNLESS YOU GIVE IT AS A GIFT such as at a holiday or birthday. So be careful, if anything should happen, and you give this to her at Christmas - she doesn't have to give the ring back and you are out a lot of dough.

make sure all your family stays there after diner but make sure it is befor desert.set up some mistletoe by the christmas tree and say you forgot a gift (hang it somewhere on the tree) then have her go over to the tree. when she gets to you grab the ring and kiss her then get down on your knee and ask her. I think that is the best way.

How candy! Congratulations on being a super guy. The ornament is a huge thought - very candy. Very intimate. As is secretly dropping it in a tumbler of champagne Or slipping it on her finger below the mistletoe Or the entire "walking by way of a "wintry climate-ask your self land" topic - build a snowman - call him Parson Brown - and then ask her to marry you giving her the hoop... Or touch the owner of the suitable Christmas lights fixtures residing house interior the section - and manage for Santa Clause to convey it to her in case you're admiring the sunshine practice... OR, once you're Catholic - pass to ineffective night Mass - and ask the priest - earlier than time of direction - in case you ought to illustrate to GF on the altar in the process the provider.

Bring out the mistletoe and ask her to close her eyes take her left hand and lead her to a chair. Kiss her lips Hand her a few roses. Tell her to close her eyes again then get in front of her on your knees( put the ring on her finger-if you plan on giving her a ring )and ask her if she will be your wife. Best wishes.

Wrap her ring as a present, but place the ring box in a bigger box so it is not obvious that it is a ring. When you open the one present on xmas eve have her open that one in front of everyone then once she see it, drop to your knee and ask her if she will be your wife.
