Celebrate this time with your future spouse however you both would like. Whether it’s a weekend getaway, relaxing, or just being with each other and doing nothing but binge-watching your favourite tv show. Embrace, absorb, and enjoy this beautiful time.

2. SHARE THE JOY

After celebrating with your partner, spread the joy to your family and close friends. Whether through social media announcements, creative gestures like custom t-shirts, pet portrait, or bottles of champagne with “We’re engaged!” Share the news in a way that resonates with you both.

3. HOST AN ENGAGEMENT PARTY

Cherish the moment with those who matter most by hosting an engagement party. It can be as intimate or elaborate as you wish—a small potluck dinner or a grand celebration. The goal is to bask in the love and excitement surrounding your engagement. You deserve to celebrate!

4. SET THE DATE

Choose a wedding date and timeframe that suits you both as a couple. There are no hard and fast rules about the duration of your engagement. This is your special day, so let it unfold according to your preferences and not based on external pressures.

5. ENGAGEMENT PHOTOSHOOT

Capture the magic of your engagement with a photoshoot. It’s a wonderful way to document the glow of this special time and create lasting memories. If a professional engagement photoshoot isn’t in your budget, you can set up a DIY photoshoot with a tripod and your phone/camera.

6. begin wedding planning

Start the initial phases of wedding planning. Consider venues, themes, and any specific details that matter to you both. Create a rough timeline for the upcoming months, allowing you to make decisions at a comfortable pace.

7. EXPLORE NEW HOBBIES TOGETHER

Strengthen your bond by exploring new hobbies or activities together now that you are engaged. Whether it’s dance classes, cooking workshops, or hiking trails, shared experiences will bring you closer and add an extra layer of excitement to your journey towards marriage.

As you maneuver through the upcoming decisions, cherish the fact that the most significant choice you’ve made is embracing a future with your partner.
