Bad timing?

In the mean time buy her some chocolate, girls love chocolate, it's freaky.

Sure. Commiting to a life together (rather than just saying you will) changes nothing. An 'outdated tradition' that statistically leads to longer relationships and provides a more stable family for the raising children is obviously only of use to women or religious people*.

It's not for everybody but to casualy dismiss it with little knowledge of the subject shows clear ignorance.

* I wanted to get married more than my wife (her previous marriage hadn't been good would be an understatement) also she's an atheist and I'm a pagan so neither of us has the traditional Abrahamic religious views on marriage.
 
Fake your own death to create a double whammy and then at the funeral come back to life and propose, that will make everything double better. For bonus points wait until you've been buried before getting out sneaking home one night. Just hope that a) you aren't cremated and b) you don't find someone else in the bed

(I hope this isn't insensitive...)

It has some merit.

Marriage changes nothing in a relationship, except legally. But it has absolutely no impact on love, you either love someone and want to spend the rest of your life with them or you don't. That ring and those vows are an outdated tradition which serves no purpose in modern society, it's not like we're exchanging sheep for wives. Regardless, girls like it, and relgious people too I guess.

Why does being married all of a sudden make a family more stable? As for commiting to a life together; Divorce? Simple enough to get out of a marriage nowadays.

Regardless, wait until after the funeral, explain why you postponed and good luck! :)
 
Ask her if she wants to go to Center Parcs.

Wait though, I drunkenly proposed to my other half in a pub. Wish I could have taken it back and done something much more romantic. Caught up in the whirlwind of romance I was! Nice pub floor to kneel on, lovely.

Disagree with you.
 
OP wait until the funeral.

If it's open an casket walk up to the coffin with the girlfriend grab some witches teat, then pull the ring out of Grannies mouth.

Your girlfriend will love the surprise and you will win over the in laws by bringing deceased members into this wonderful occasion.
