Here at The Heart Bandits, we focus on making people’s marriage proposal dreams become a reality. Whether it is a simple but romantic proposal, an over-the-top proposal with a flash mob, or something personal and unique, marriage proposals by The Heart Bandits are always successful. But what needs to happen after the proposal? Today we are going to go over some of the awesome things that you should definitely do after the proposal to continue on the highs from the one of the best days of your life.

Wedding Proposal Announcement

This is the part that really gives you chills and makes you feel the excitement all over again. When you really think about it, the proposal is a short event. The guy gets on one knee, presents his love with the ring, and she says yes. It could happen within a minute. It’s not until you relive the entire story that you really get to take it all in. When you re-tell it to your friends and family, that’s when you realize the magnitude of how your relationship has changed.

How and when you tell your friends and family really depends on your personalities. If you two are social media junkies or your close ones live far away, then announcing it on Facebook could work. If you’re a talkative person, it’ll be really enjoyable for you to call those close to you and tell them the good news. Keep in mind that the first question people will always ask you, is how did he propose so you want to have a good story. For those people that want to be old-school about things, telling your friends and family in person always works well. This could even be done in it’s own surprise fashion for more flare.

Engagement Party

If your proposal was small and lo-key, or even if it wasn’t ;), then this is the time to let it all out and celebrate. Your marriage proposal is a time for celebration. Friends and family would love to hear about it, join you for a toast, give you a hug, and offer you congratulations and well-wishes for a happy lifetime together. How can you let all these things pass you by? Having an engagement party is not as involved and hectic as a wedding. It’s simple but has almost all the same benefits. Your friends and family are all there to help you celebrate you reaching the next stage of your relationship.  The Heart Bandits specializes in Engagement Parties too!

Engagement Pictures

It’s a given that you’re going to have a lot of pictures taken at your wedding. Your 4-year-old niece probably has the latest iPhone and will be capturing video of it and posting it on youTube. It will be covered, that’s a given. Your engagement period however, should also have its set of pictures. Arrange with a photographer to have engagement pictures taken at a place that you both love. It could be a place that means something to you two, is part of your personalities, or is just plain scenic like parks or beaches. These pictures would really show you two in love, being artistic, acting silly, or just being you. They could be used as part of the decorations at your wedding AND as something you could pass out for Christmas cards :). Either way, it’s a must do.

Though the after-engagement time is fun, the actual proposal is a beautiful moment and should be planned out thoroughly.
