The youngest brother of the royal family, Prince Harry, is not the only one who got engaged at this time. The end of the year is the time when more and more often you can see pictures of excited brides on social media, where you can see their newly acquired engagement rings. Prince Harry and his fiancee Meghan Markle are answering countless questions from people around them after their engagement, and it's one of the things that every couple around the world faces. But what are the other things that you should absolutely do after you say "I do"?

NOTICE

Although we undoubtedly live in the age of social media, when it seems so easy and convenient to announce everything by changing your relationship status Facebook or by posting a beautiful photo Instagram , you should remember that you should first announce your engagement to your closest people - parents, relatives, close friends. They will definitely be happy to hear it from you personally, instead of reading it on social media while running past.

RING

The most important element of the engagement is definitely the ring - chosen and cherished by the groom himself.

If the ring is valuable not only in emotional value, but also in material value, then you should think about insuring it.

Also, brides all over the world recommend buying a ring plate or even several to put it on, if, for example, the dishes are washed. In this way, the ring will always be placed in a specific place and you can avoid accidentally losing it.

MANICURE

A good manicure and well-groomed nails will be one of the biggest must have long after the engagement. Not only the bride herself will want to look at her new treasure on her finger from time to time, but you never know when you will be lucky enough to meet a familiar face, who will definitely want to take the bride's hand to see the ring closer with excited cries.

DREAM

Before starting active wedding planning, dream. Dream alone, dream with your fiancé, and most importantly, dream big dreams and discuss big ideas. Talk about what your dream wedding should be and what you need to make your dreams come true.

THINK IN NUMBERS

Advice from those couples who have already experienced their special day - not to make any decisions or book anything before the approximate wedding budget is completely clear.

• Discuss how much you are willing to invest in organizing the wedding and how long it will take to get that amount.
• Another number to be sure to consider is the possible number of guests. Make a preliminary guest list - in this way it will be easier to understand both the necessary wedding budget and the possible location of the wedding celebration.
• And, of course, the wedding date – another number that the couple must agree on.

FIND A WEDDING OFFICIAL

If you have decided to cooperate with a wedding organizer, it would be advisable to book a wedding venue or other service providers before hiring him. A wedding planner will help you "put all the information together" and will definitely be able to recommend the best specialists in the industry.
