I just got engaged... now what?

Getting engaged is the first step in starting the rest of your life with your significant other. After the engagement... then what? Sometimes it all happens so fast and you don't stop to think about the things that need to happen first. Here's a list of steps that can point you in the right direction: 
  1. GET EXCITED!! This is the start of the rest of your life with your love. 
  2. Don't Panic! It is a lot to think about, but things are going to be easy if you just relax and be calm throughout the process.
  3. Pick a time of year that you would like your wedding to take place-- you do not need a date quite yet.
  4. Decide whether you would like an indoor or outdoor wedding. Remember, you always need a backup plan if the weather is not on your side! 
  5. Now is the time to go and see some possible venues! Pick out 3-5 places you'd like to see, and remember to keep an open mind.
  6. Pick the “I do” date! This should be easy, since you have decided the general time of year you’d like to get married.
  7. Get some pictures of you and your love and send out “save the date” cards to your friends and family that you’d like to share the special day with.
  8. Go dress shopping with your favorite gal pals and look for a wedding dress, and possibly bridesmaid dresses as well.
  9. Make appointments with floral shops and cake/catering places to see what types of floral arrangements and food offerings they have for weddings.
  10. REMEMBER TO KEEP SMILING- this should be a fun process, and this is only the beginning!!
