Just engaged? Alicia from The Dream Styling walks you through the first seven steps.
You're engaged — congratulations! The sparkly ring is on your finger and you're getting married. Here's a little guide to the first seven steps, from the perfect ring selfie to picturing your dream day. Grab a glass of fizz and let the planning commence.
1. Tell your family (and your best friends) — personally, before they hear it on social media. 2. Get a manicure — your hands are about to be the centre of attention. 3. Perfect and post your ring selfie. 4. Celebrate — virtual bubbles or a home date night, however you like; take it all in.
5. Engage-min: get your ring insured (surprisingly inexpensive added to your home insurance) and resized to fit perfectly. 6. Chat about budgets — not romantic, but essential before plans can move forward. 7. Pinterest & Instagram — picture your perfect day, gather inspiration, and start discovering your dream suppliers (just stay guided by your budget).
Getting a feel for your dream day from the very start is essential — it's what drives every decision going forward, from stationery to florals. Lots of love, Alicia x — The Dream Styling.
