Engaged: Now What?

Guides for Brides - The Wedding Podcast

Congratulations to all you newly engaged couples out there! In this very first episode of Guides for Brides - The Wedding Podcast, Nikita and Amelia discuss what you need to know and do when you first get engaged, from telling your family members to what you’ll need to consider first in your initial wedding planning stages.
What's covered in this episode?

This episode covers the initial moments of being engaged and planning a wedding and how to approach them. We discuss:

• Enjoying your engagement bubble and the celebrations that follow
• Key considerations and decisions you and your partner should discuss before your wedding planning starts
• When, where and how to start planning your wedding
• Tasks that need to get ticked off your list in your first months of wedding planning

After listening to this episode and our discussions, we hope that couples will feel prepared to start planning and more confident about where to start. This is one of life's major events, so we hope you will find this episode useful, especially if you've never planned or assisted someone in planning a wedding before!
