Just Engaged? Here’s What to Do Next (And Why We’re So Excited for You!)
The sparkle of the holidays is still in the air—and for many couples, this season brought more than just snow and celebration. If you’re reading this with a ring on your finger and a full heart, congratulations! Getting engaged over the holidays is truly magical. The glow of twinkle lights, time with loved ones, and cozy winter moments make it an unforgettable setting to start your forever.
At Hair Creations, we absolutely love this time of year—not just for fresh starts, but for welcoming newly engaged couples into the exciting world of wedding planning. Whether you're dreaming of a big celebration, an intimate gathering, or something totally your own, now is the time to start turning those Pinterest boards into real-life plans.
You Said Yes—Now What?
If you’re feeling that mix of excitement and “where do I even begin?”—you’re not alone. The good news is, you don’t need to do it all at once. Here are a few thoughtful steps to help ease into the planning process while still soaking up the joy of your engagement:
1. Celebrate Your Moment
Take time to be present. Tell your story. Pop some bubbly. Enjoy being engaged before rushing into planning mode.
2. Start Dreaming
Are you imagining a summer garden ceremony? A chic winery celebration? Something offbeat and personal? This is the time to talk about how you want your wedding to feel, not just what it looks like.
3. Secure Your Dream Vendors Early
Yes, it’s true—wedding vendors book up quickly, especially for late summer and fall dates. If hair and makeup are high on your list (which they should be!), it’s a great idea to start browsing portfolios, booking consultations, and reaching out.
