You’re engaged! Now it’s time to share the wonderful news with the people who are closest to you. There is no right or wrong way to share your news. If you can do it in person, great! However, if you can’t, sharing your happy news over the phone is just as special. These special people in your life will be so excited to hear your news and will be eager to give wedding planning advice.
Set a Few Possible Dates
While you’re wedding planning, it’s always a smart idea to set a few possible dates for your wedding. Think about the time of year you prefer, or if you have any significant dates that would make your wedding day extra special. Choose a couple of tentative dates that you can narrow down when you begin the process of choosing your wedding venue. The more flexible you are with your date, the more options you will have! Especially if you’re choosing a weekday wedding.
Discuss a Guest List Together
Who will you invite to your special day? Ultimately, this decision is up to you and your fiancé. Each of you should contribute names to the list of people you can’t imagine spending your special day without. This will help give you a basic idea of the size of your wedding and your budget.
