What Next After Your Engagement?
First off, congratulations, you’re getting married! We at Dazzle (Events) by Andrea are happy for you. Now that you know that your partner wants to marry you and you also want to marry them, what next do you do? Well first, it depends on how soon you want the wedding. If you have your wedding lined up right after your engagement, then here’s a list of things you need to get started on as soon as you can.
Selecting Your Wedding Party
Even though this is first on this articles list, we’d advise you hold off a bit till after the euphoria of your engagement passes. Only then will you be able to tell who’s ready to dive into this wedding thing with you as part of your wedding party.
The Buying Of Your Dress
Experts suggest that your wedding dress should cost about 10% of the total wedding budget. Go for it early in your planning so that there is enough time to select the perfect dress and adjust it to complement your body.
Your Bridesmaid’s Dresses
The way your wedding party looks affects the overall theme of your wedding. Go for dresses that flatter everyone so you all look great on that day.
Estimate Your Guest List
Decide who is coming and who is not. Send off RSVP cards to get feedback and be sure and then go into the planning of your seating chart.
Pick Your First Dance Song
And not just that, but discuss your wedding music and decide if you are going with a DJ or a band or both.
Plan Your Honeymoon
Where do you want to go and when? Do you have to save up for it or can the budget on ground carry it? After your engagement is a good time to start thinking about these too.
The Legal Stuff
Like your marriage license documentation and filing. Usually, your wedding officiant can help with this.
