You or your significant other have decided it\u2019s time to tie the knot. Just in time for engagement season too. For many, this experience only comes once in a lifetime but I bet you didn\u2019t expect any of these to happen after getting engaged!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some things no one will tell you about being engaged\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>You have the proposal story repeated so often, you actually start reciting it in your sleep\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>Really. Although you\u2019ve told it already and it is a great story, you\u2019ll be so sick of rattling off your lovely tale, it will simply manifest into \u201che asked me and I said yes.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Everyone asks you about wedding plans, babies, horses and carriages\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>You got engaged 2 days ago and people already assume you probably have your life mapped out. You MUST have your date and venue booked\u2026 SURELY! And you probably already have your kid\u2019s names and pre-schools picked out too.<\/p>\n<h2>Your married friends and family all become wedding experts<\/h2>\n<p>If any of your friends or family have had a wedding in the last few years, expect a lot of \u2018when we were planning our wedding\u2026\u2019 nonsense.

It\u2019ll probably take a while to get used to a ring if you\u2019re not the type to wear jewelry and you\u2019ll feel like you could lose it or break it at any moment. Once you\u2019ve knocked your hand off a wall or door you\u2019ll realize it ain\u2019t that fragile. But if you have home insurance, make sure to add your engagement ring to it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"So, you\u2019ve done it!
