EEEK your love popped the big question in the sweetest of ways and you were totes surprised! You have a million zillion questions! 7 thoughts racing through your head! And you can NOT wait any longer to share the news with you family and friends! Girlfriend, please let me stop you right there. We know you are excited and we are so excited for you but, please, let us save you the biggest headache and avoid the stress that is sure to come your way if you act too fast!

We get that you want to tell your closest family and friends and share the news via social media and you should.  This is such an over the moon, crazy exciting time for you. However, this is also a time that you should bask in the excitement and joy.

We want to make sure you a prepared for what’s going happen next. The questions, oh the questions! You will feel blindsided with and cause you to think “OMG what do I do? I have no idea, should I think about this? Do I have to answer this now?!” That then causes you to blurt out answers that you didn’t fully think through. Then you’ll have to go back and do damage control or forever hold your peace!

So we put together the survival guide of the epic three questions you are sure to be asked and how to answer them.

Question one: So when’s the big day!?

Epic Answer: We are actually really excited to just enjoy this exciting time of being engaged so we have decided to enjoy this time and start thinking of all the fun details after our engagement party!

Question two: So who’s going to be in your bridal party?!

Epic Answer: We actually are not 100% set on having a bridal party.  We really have to think about how we want the day to look and make sure we are both comfortable and have the same vision.

Question three: Am I invited?!

Epic Answer: Honestly we are most likely going to be paying for all of this on our own so we really have to sit down and crunch numbers to see what is actually feasible. I would love to have everyone there but I’m sure if we can’t, we will have a BBQ or something that’s more laid back to enjoy with co-workers and friends to celebrate.
