2017.03.03 published
♡Congratulations♡ To everyone whose marriage has been decided!
To all of you who have received your long-awaited proposal from your boyfriend and have decided to get married, congratulations!♡
Many of you are probably still feeling excited about the unfamiliar term "fiancee," which signifies a step up from being a couple♡
So, what do you do after being proposed to?
I have a question for all of you who are overflowing with happiness＊
That is, "What exactly should you do after being proposed to??!"
Indeed, in today's world, many couples do not hold a wedding for various reasons, and the equation of [being proposed = definitely having a wedding] doesn't really hold true. You might honestly be unsure about the timing for registering your marriage, reporting to parents and workplaces, and the procedures for changing your last name...
However, these tasks you must undertake after the proposal are incredibly important for living together as a couple＊
So, let’s address the question of what to do after being proposed to and having decided on marriage?!
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ① Discuss Whether to Hold a Wedding.
First, discuss with your partner whether you want to hold a wedding or not♡
It's important to share your opinions and your partner's opinions clearly, so you can establish a direction together＊
Even if you're not planning to hold it immediately, it would be good to decide things like “by what age do we want to do it?” or “how much do we want to save before we hold a wedding?”
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ② Discuss the Timing for Registering Your Marriage.
To officially become a couple, you need to submit your marriage certificate and register your marriage♡
The submission of marriage certificates is accepted 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, so you could go to the municipal office right now... but many couples tend to register on their anniversary, one partner's birthday, holidays, or on the wedding day itself♡
The date of submission will become your wedding anniversary, so it's recommended to choose a date that is important for both of you＊
Additionally, discussing the design of the marriage certificate together can definitely heighten the excitement♩
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ③ Choose a Wedding Venue.
The first thing that couples who have decided to have a wedding need to do is choose a wedding venue! However, selecting one from the 5,000 to 6,000 wedding venues across the country is no easy task...
First, evaluate priorities based on factors like [timing, location, or venues that you've been interested in for a while], then participate in bridal fairs while enjoying a weekend date♩
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ④ Inform Parents and Workplace.
Once marriage is decided, it's necessary to inform family, workplace, and friends♡
Especially at work, you may need to communicate your intentions to continue working, the timing of the wedding, or plans regarding childbirth and parenting. Discuss this with your partner and make sure to report it properly＊
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ⑤ Decide on Wedding Rings.
One of the things you need to do after being proposed is decide on the wedding ring that will be worn on the left hand's ring finger for a lifetime♡
As the marriage ring is an essential item used during the ring exchange at the ceremony, it's recommended that couples prepare as early as possible, considering delivery times.
If you have favorite brands in mind, request a catalog right away♩
Things to Start After Being Proposed to ⑥ Decide on Money Management Method.
This might be the most important thing for your future married life... Yes, it's about deciding on the method of money management***
When you were just dating, you might have had separate wallets and bank accounts, splitting costs or taking turns treating each other. However, once you become a family, this changes. Discussions about household expenses and saving for the future are indispensable.
Therefore, let’s discuss how you can manage finances in a way that is stress-free for both of you... Marry provides an overview of how couples manage their finances♡
