JUST ENGAGED Don’t let your excitement get the better of you
We live in a digital age of over- sharing, but when it comes to memorable life milestones such as an engagement it’s important to not let your excitement get the better of you.
DISCUSS WHAT YOU’LL SHARE You might be Insta-mad, but your other half might not be overjoyed that the news of the two of you being hitched is rapidly being ‘liked’ by one and all. Be sure to discuss what you’ll be posting where – and when – before you hit ‘publish’. PERSONAL TOUCH Go old school. Tell your nearest and dearest about your life decision in a personal way. It’ll further enhance the special time for you, and they will feel touched that you’ve made the choice to inform them the proper way. RING IT IN While a snap of your engagement ring is always adored, there’s no need to go mad on discussing the style, carats, or cost. People would rather hear about your engagement story and the love you share than the materialistic elements. WEDDING DAY DETAILS You might have been planning your nuptials for decades, but as you’ll soon discover, the process of planning a wedding (and the costs involved) can change the way you thought your ‘perfect’ wedding would look. Hold the event details for the save-the- dates or invitations. Now is the time to simply enjoy being engaged. What to think about when selecting a wedding band to go with your engagement ring. There is no right or wrong wedding band, but most importantly it is a design that you love and are going to be happy to wear for many years. Selecting a ring to sit nicely alongside your engagement ring is important, and a ring to complement the engagement ring rather than over power it. Partridge Jewellers have a dedicated engagement room within all of their stores where you can enjoy a quiet environment and be shown a large selection of wedding bands by well trained, friendly staff.
