BRIDEfinds’ story, “10 Things to Do As Soon As You Get Engaged,” is spot on! I just love this list of must-dos after he puts a ring on it!
#1 – Get a manicure: I’ve so been there. My hubby’s surprise proposal came on a night when my nail polish was good and chipped. I couldn’t wait to show off my ring, but my nails looked somewhat sad given the joyous occasion.
#2 – Insure your ring. Seriously. Do this. If not right away, then do it as soon as you move in together (add it to your rental insurance or home insurance as a rider).
#3 – LIKE us on Facebook and follow our Blog. We’ll keep you in the loop about all things weddings in Arkansas. Inspiration, Real Weddings, vendor information, ideas, expert advice, trends, and more – all on our daily blog!
#4 – Hire an engagement photographer; take engagement photos; submit Engagement Announcements to Arkansas Bride!
#5 – Sign up for sale and trunk show alerts from local stores you love like Low’s, Tulle, Jessica’s, First Impressions,Proposals, Bridal Cottage and Paul Morrell.
#6 – Sign up for Pinterest (and follow our Pinterest)! This online inspiration board generator is a great place to brainstorm and gather pictures of ideas you love or just inspire you.
#7 – Choose a diet plan (and start it).
#9 – Have ‘the money talk’ with your fiance.
