Text the Wedding Planning Hotline

Today's episode comes from you all, my listeners! I’ve heard from several of you that you’re waiting for the proposal. You're not officially engaged, but you know or hope it's coming soon, so you're looking around, getting some ideas, etc. You’ve been in a relationship for a while, you’ve had the talk, maybe looked at some rings, so you’re just starting to get a feel for this whole wedding planning thing.

NO, I do NOT think you’re crazy. My now-husband and I TOTALLY talked about some of our wedding ideas before we got engaged. We had fun fantasizing and dreaming!

So what should you do now? Below are the five things to do before you get engaged. 

  • Think about your guest list.  
  • Put together a budget range that you’re comfortable spending on the wedding  
  • Decide a part of the country or state where you want to get married.
  • Research and reach out to wedding planners.
  • Look at wedding venues. 
  • Save inspiration to a Pinterest board. 

If you have questions about any of this, I would love to know. I can even do a deep dive into one of these topics if you think it’s helpful. 

Please review the podcast on Apple Podcasts and write your questions in the review and I’ll incorporate them into a future episode.  If there are specific guests you want me to interview or topics you want me to cover in a future episode, let me know who that is in your review, too!

In Episode 37 I’m diving into the next step in the journey, which is what the heck do you do after you get engaged!
