You’ve just promised to marry the man of your dreams, so what’s next? Here are five things to do after you’ve said yes!

1) Tell your friends and family. You may not want to take too long, because chances are one of your observant relatives is bound to see that sparkle on your ring finger. You don’t have to announce your news right away, but it’s probably best that they hear it from you instead of an outside source.

2) Choose your bridal party. For some of you, this decision may come easily, but for those of you still deciding, try not to wait too long. Your bridal party is one of your main supports and will help you through the planning stage.

3) Pick a date. Once you’ve settled on a date, it makes it a whole lot easier to book all your vendors.

4) Book your locations. It’s crucial to book both your ceremony and reception venues as early as possible, as they tend to book up fast (especially during the summer!).

5) Make a to-do list. The best way to stay organized is to make a countdown of things to do and when. It may seem like there’s a lot to do (which there is!) but once everything is set according to schedule it makes planning your perfect day easier and less stressful.
