Your loved one just popped the question, and you replied with an enthusiastic, “YES!” Let us be the first to tell you, congratulations! You, Selena Gomez, and so many others this month are newly engaged and wearing a rock on your fourth finger, left hand.

What do you do now? First, enjoy this bubble of newly engaged bliss because in a few minutes, you and your betrothed will have a whole list of things to accomplish. Let’s begin.

1. Tell Friends and Family

Do you wait a day to soak up this time when only you and your partner know? Or maybe your partner surprised you with your friends and family already lurking in the bushes at the time of your proposal and ready to celebrate with you? Everyone has a different philosophy when it comes to spreading the good news, and the correct answer really just depends on what you two want to do.

Some couples immediately take to social media and post a picture. Others lift up their left hand and personally FaceTime their nearest and dearest. Figure out what method works best for you. But one thing is for certain: You need to…

2. Get a Manicure

Brace yourself for this question: “Can I see the ring?” You might want to invest in a manicure or a solid DIY one because you will be showing off your hand a lot more, whether you want to or not. This is also a good time to invest in the exclusive Preppi Kit for Over The Moon Wedding Day Emergency Kit, which, yes, includes a manicure set for when you’re on the go and the masses want to see your diamond.

3. Get a Ring Dish

I know you don’t think you’re ever going to take this ring off your finger, but the next time you wash your hands or put on lotion or go for a swim—you’ll realize you might want a dedicated space to place your ring.

OTM Tip: One of the best engagement gifts to give and receive is a ring dish! You can never have too many around the house, and they’re so beautiful. This exclusive OTM one is a bestseller.

4. Think About Wedding Bands

Or even your ring stack in general. You don’t want to get too far along in the wedding planning process without knowing what wedding band complements your engagement ring!

Also, in the first few days of wearing your engagement ring, you may start to realize that having this stunner of a bauble makes the rest of your gold-plated jewelry incredibly lackluster. It might be time to upgrade your jewel box with finer jewelry.

5. Plan Your Engagement Shoot

If your partner didn’t have the foresight to hire a photographer during the proposal—or maybe you don’t want to use the all-too-candid images of you in shock and tears, you’ll want to schedule an engagement photo shoot. Besides, you’ll likely need them for your Save-The-Date card, but one step at a time!

Turn to The Over The Moon Directory for our complete list of premier photographers. Think of your engagement photoshoot as a good opportunity to begin considering which photographer you’ll want for your wedding day, too.

6. Consult OTM Styling and Get Camera-Ready

As you prepare for your photo shoot, now is also the time to curate your bridal wardrobe and even reach out to Over The Moon Styling to look and feel your best. We also love Glamsquad when getting ready for any event, and if there were ever an occasion that required priming and primping—it’s this time in your life. Plus, Over The Moon has exclusive offers for hair and makeup packages.

7. Create Your Over The Moon Registry

Whether you and your betrothed are moving in after you get married or have already built a life and home together prior, every couple should make an Over The Moon Registry. This is the only time in your life where you’re not only allowed to tell people exactly what you want, it is also encouraged! When else will people buy you things like this in bulk? Don’t waste this opportunity to get the Ginori 1735 Oriente Italiano plates of your dreams or collect funds for your honeymoon at an Auberge Resorts Collection property.

And this is coming from a place of knowing what’s best for couples everywhere—you should register on Over The Moon. Here is our guide to everything you need on your registry. Check it once, and check it twice!

8. Submit Your Engagement Story to Over The Moon

There’s no doubt you’re familiar with Over The Moon’s wedding features, and while that part of your journey may seem so far away—you’re right on schedule for submitting your engagement story. On Sundays, we post engagement photos and share your love stories with our audience. Once you have your photos, you’re ready to reach out to us here.
