What is a more romantic way to celebrate Valentine's Day than by getting engaged to the one you love? In fact, around 10% of proposals occur on Valentine's, making it one of the most popular days to get engaged (alongside Christmas and New Years). But how do you celebrate once the excitement has settled?
The holidays are an incredibly popular time for popping the question, whether you have friends that woke up to an engagement ring Christmas Morning, or maybe they decided to 'ring' in the New Year by proposing amidst fireworks and choruses or Auld Lang Syne.

Alongside this analysis, Bridebook predicted that the most popular day for proposals was in fact Christmas Day, closely followed by Christmas Eve and New Years Eve.
