The New Year is upon us, and with it comes a season of fresh starts, exciting possibilities, and, of course, engagements! If you’ve recently said “Yes!” or know someone who has, congratulations! Engagement season is a magical time filled with love, celebration, and anticipation for what’s to come.

As you bask in the glow of your engagement, you might be wondering, “What’s next?” Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming at first, but don’t worry — we’re here to guide you every step of the way. Here are some tips to kick off your wedding planning journey in the New Year with confidence and excitement:

1. Celebrate Your Engagement

Before diving into the planning process, take a moment to celebrate this special milestone. Host an engagement party, share your joy with loved ones, or simply spend time with your partner reflecting on your journey together. These moments will set the tone for the exciting adventure ahead.

2. Start Dreaming Together

Every great wedding begins with a vision. Sit down with your partner and discuss your dreams for the big day. Do you envision a classic and elegant ceremony, a modern minimalist celebration, or perhaps a romantic destination wedding? Aligning on a shared vision will make every decision easier.

3. Set Your Budget

One of the first practical steps in wedding planning is setting a realistic budget. Determine what aspects of the wedding are most important to you and allocate your funds accordingly. Remember, it’s possible to create a stunning wedding at any price point with the right planning and creativity.

4. Create Your Guest List

The guest list will influence many other aspects of your wedding, from the venue to catering. Start with a preliminary list and refine it as you go. Pro tip: Consider creating an A-list and B-list to help manage invites as responses come in.
