For all the soon-to-be brides out there, here are the steps leading up to your wedding♡

What to do after the proposal ① Report to both sets of parents＊

First, let's report the engagement to each other's parents♡ At that time, inform them that you want to visit together with your boyfriend＊ Coordinate with their schedules to set a date for the visit＊

Typically, the order is to visit the girl's family first＊ Since marriage means “getting a bride,” it’s important to make the announcement to the woman’s side of the family first♩ It’s also a good idea to decide roughly when the face-to-face meeting will be held＊

What to do after the proposal ② Family Meeting (Engagement Ceremony)＊

Once you have informed both sets of parents, it's time for the family meeting＊ Recently, many couples opt for a meal together rather than a formal engagement ceremony＊ At the meeting, discuss the wedding plans and registration dates properly♩

Since two families are becoming one, it’s important to ensure there are no discrepancies between the families＊ If you have received an engagement ring, this is the time to show it off♡

What to do after the proposal ③ Purchase Wedding Rings＊

It’s fine if you can prepare wedding rings by the time of the wedding, but you probably want to wear them starting from when you become a couple＊ It’s recommended to purchase the rings before the registration♡

It’s nice to pop into a store while on a date♩ If you want to try them on properly, be sure to make an appointment＊

What to do after the proposal ④ Registration＊

It’s advisable to register your marriage before the wedding ceremony＊ In the past, many couples registered on the wedding day itself, but completing this before moving into a new home or for passport processing can make things easier as a married couple＊

Don’t forget to check with your parents whether it’s okay to register before the ceremony♡ Decide on a date that’s meaningful to both of you, or one that has a nice ring to it♩

If you have purchased the wedding rings before registration, you can take a commemorative photo with your marriage certificate♡
