Top 5 Things To Do After You’re Engaged

Congratulations on your engagement! This is an exciting time in your life, and there's a lot to do to after you're engaged. Here are the most important post-proposal tasks you should keep in mind: 

Celebrate it With Your Partner 

Once you've been officially engaged, it's time to celebrate! This is a big milestone in your relationship and one that should be celebrated with your partner. There are many ways to do this, but some ideas include going out for a special dinner or perhaps even taking a trip together to commemorate the occasion. 

Share the News with Friends and Family

Another important post-proposal task is to tell your family and close friends about it. This is an exciting time for you and your partner, and sharing the news with those who are important to you is a great way to start off your engagement on the right foot.

Your family and friends will likely be very excited for you, and may even want to help you start planning your wedding. Telling them about your engagement is a great way to get the ball rolling on wedding preparations.

Take it to Social Media! 

As soon as your partner says yes, it's time to announce the news on social media. Of course, you want to make sure that your diamond engagement ring is photographed in the best way possible, so we've put together a few tips to help you get started.

• The first tip is to make sure that your ring is clean before you start taking photos. You don't want any fingerprints or smudges on the lens, so take a few minutes to clean your ring with a soft cloth. 
• The second tip is to find the best lighting possible. Natural light is always best, so try to take your photos near a window or outdoors. 
• The third tip is to play around with different angles. Take a few photos from different angles and distances until you find the one that looks best.

Once you've taken your photos, it's time to start posting! Make sure to tag your fiancé in the photo and use a creative caption. You can also use hashtags like #engaged, #ringgoals, or #shesaidyes to help spread the word.

Educate Yourself on Diamond Jewelry Care

After you're engaged, you should educate yourself on jewelry maintenance, care, and protection. This might not seem like an important task but it surely is. This will help you keep your engagement ring and other jewelry in top condition.

Here are some tips on jewelry care:

• Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place.
• Clean your jewelry regularly with a mild soap and water.
• Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh chemicals, such as bleach.
• Take off your jewelry before participating in activities that could damage it, such as swimming or playing sports.
• Have your jewelry professionally cleaned and inspected once a year.

Get Your Engagement Ring Sized for a Perfect Fit 

It's also the right time to get your ring sized to perfection. You don't want it to be too big or too small, so it's important to get it just right. Here are a few tips on how to get your ring sized:

• Visit a trusted jeweler, like Futer Bros. Jewelers in York, to measure your finger size. This is the most accurate way to get your ring size.
• You can also use a ring sizer. A ring sizer is a plastic or metal ring you can put on your finger to get your finger size.
