When men were asked about the month in which they proposed, December was seen as the most prominent month. In addition to being a good month to end the year, Christmas, one of the biggest events for couples, seems to have something to do with this.

June, a popular month for weddings, also has a relatively large number of reports, but overall there is not a large difference, and the reports tend to be generally dispersed.

So why did men choose these months as the timing for their proposals?

Let's take a look at the reasons and recommended dates for proposing in December.
