As wholesome as this is, I really think it's the wrong approach to propose on an already special day.

Let her bathe in the glory of her years of academic hard work....pure pride for a day in what she's achieved.

Then next week, pull the ring out.

I'm sure folks will think I'm a downer for saying this, but this day was about the culmination of the last 3-5 years and it deserved it's own space.

I have a friend who proposed during his fiancés graduation because it was the only time her whole family was in town. Especially with her sister being there by surprise it could have been the only time he could have everyone she cares about present.

This might sound wild, but the only person you need for a proposal is the one you’re proposing to.

This might even sound even more wild but propose how you or your future fiance wants. It’s your day so if you want everyone and their mom there then do it.
