You said yes and now Pinterest boards, bridal magazines, "oh, what about the dress?" thoughts are swirling about your head. Stop. Breathe. Let us handle this for you. Here's a list of 5 things you should do after you say, "YES"!
Family Comes First
Before you post ring selfies and cutesy captions on social media, talk your family! Your near and dear ones deserve to know before your online friends and followers. Mom and dad, siblings and BFFs probably already know the proposal was due so give them a call to share the good news.
Nails on Fleek
You're going to be showing off that sparkler for the next couple of weeks. Not just on social media but friends, family and co-workers will want to take a look at your ring. It would be a good idea to get a manicure. You can still have nice nails with clear polish if you're a fan of the natural look. Oh and grab your favorite lotion and show your hands some love!
Time to Get Social
Ok, now you can open up Instagram! You can share a nice photo of you and your fiancé or a close up shot of your ring. If you and your partner are not comfortable sharing the news online, you absolutely don't have to! Share as much or as little as you wish. If you're planning on having a small wedding, it may be best to keep the news off social media completely.
Insure That Sparkler
This is a piece of jewelry you're going to have for a loooong time and it's precious so it makes sense to have it insured. You can ask about ring insurance from the jeweler that you bought the ring from. Understand the differences between ring insurance and having an extension to your homeowner or renter's insurance before picking one.
You and Me Time
Unplug from social media, cancel all plans and just spend some time with your fiancé. The next couple of weeks are going to be a whirlwind so dedicate some time just for the two of you. Talk about what kind of wedding you would like, the venue and other big questions.
