Christmas proposals

I've never understood the appeal of getting engaged on a major holiday.

The day before? Sure. The day after? Totally.

But when you pop the question on Thanksgiving or Christmas, there's just too much already going on. It seems like the specialness of your day would get lost in the existing celebrations.

What's more, you're likely surrounded by friends and family all day on a big holiday -- which is cool if you know your proposal will be met with a "yes," but really awkward if she says "no."

Nonetheless, if you're still thinking of a Christmas proposal, check out these creative Christmas engagement ideas.

I have to warn you: The list is a little cheesy. For instance, I'd feel a little weird agreeing to spend the rest of my life with a guy who covered his entire body in wrapping paper.

Red and green duct tape? That's a different story. Sexy.

Weigh in: Is a Christmas day proposal a "do" or "don't"?
