Did you announce your engagement on social media?

We announced on Facebook and instagram the day after he proposed. We had to make time to call our families who weren't there.

My FH doesn't have FB. He is not a fan of social media. So I never really announced it.

We announced it on FB a week after it happened! I immediately called my parents, but they kind of already knew it was coming because my FH sort of asked my dad for permission. However, if didnt let my parents tell my younger siblings (11&14) and since he proposed kn a Monday. We had to wait until the following weekend to go back home and tell my siblings, aunt and uncle, grandparents ( they all live on the same private drive and are neighbors) and my FH sister, BIL, and their young kids. He then called his parents and told them because they live 3 hours away. Then I posted this picture online so everyone could know!

After we had called our immediate family we changed our relationship status on facebook. But we didn't post pictures of the ring nor the occasion. We also didn't write about it. I have teased it on instagram when I posted a picture with my mom and aunts the day I said yes to the dress. The shop had the cutest sign so we went for it. I also posted the sneak peek our photographer gave for the engagement shoot. However, since then both FH and I have deactivated our social media accounts in an effort to detox emotionally as well as for privacy concerns.

I snap chatted it to friends that night but waited to post on facebook till family knew

We went for a walk at the same park we go every year for our anniversary as that's where we had our first date. This time though we "happened to run into" a good friend of ours. FH planned it so the friend would take pictures/video when he proposed. It was supper sweet. After we went to a not super fancy restaurant with the friend for celebratory drinks. We spent like 30 minutes calling immediate family to announce then as soon as we were done, we each posted on Facebook with a picture from his proposal. We ended up drinking a lot and spending the whole time competing for more "likes" it was so much fun and hilarious! His mom shared his post and my sister shared mine. We counted the "likes" they got towards our head count. I won by a landslide because my sister is very active on social media lol

Yes!!! After immediate family was told we announced it on FB & IG.

About a week after once I talked to the people I wanted to on the phone. And it was around christmas so I wanted some pictures in front of the tree

Social Media Post

We announced on like about two weeks after we got engaged. Each of our immediate families knew first from us (or our parents) calling them directly.

My fiance announced ours on Facebook. I had no idea and I was calling my mom and his mom (who knew) and he posted "Ladies and Gentlemen she said yes!!" He did it at out Hall of Fame banquet for motocross, with the help of the coordinators and a few of our racing family. They got pictures and a video. So about a week later we put up the pictures and video. I posted my ring and said I said yes, as most my family is out of town.

We announced it on FB after we took the time to enjoy being newly engaged. My family helped him plan the engagement/set everything up while we were visiting them in Florida, so they were all there to celebrate. We did make some calls to his immediate family and our friends as well.

I announced it the night we got engaged! I called my family first of course, but I couldn't resist making a post. It's the only thing I've posted though. I plan to post a few favorite photos after the wedding, but that's about it.

He didn't tell his parents until after they noticed a ring on his finger in a picture I had posted on Facebook. After he told his mom, I called my parents to let them know and then later that night I changed my relationship status to engaged.

We waited about a month before we told social media and it was just Facebook and Instagram. We told all of the important people in our lives first. Very first was mothers. Then siblings then friends.

Yes! We announced it the day after it happened, because we were in hawaii and when it happened it was early in the morning back home and I wanted to wait and call my parents, instead of them seeing it on FB. So after we called family, we put it on FB and instagram lol

Technically, my FH posted. We were away for the weekend in a place with very little wifi, but we of course called our parents. We wanted to wait until we came home from our trip (two days later), unfortunately, my mom was so anxious to tell people about it, I had to convince her to at least let the announcement come from us. So about an hour after the proposal, my FH shared a photo of the ring on my finger stating, "She said yes!"

Even though I wish we could have waited and enjoyed the feeling a bit on our own, I think it really was a sweet way for us to announce it, FH sharing his excitement...

We did share on Facebook, we were going to wait but one of his aunts took it upon herself to make a whole congratulatory post so we just updated are relationship to engaged. Then we eventually posted a family picture with our save the date info. He's not huge on updating his life online, so I just make the post and tag it to his page.

My FH wrote a cryptic Facebook post the night he proposed, which I was mad about for like a minute since we hadn't actually talked about if we were waiting or not to announce, but it was fine! Then I did the "official" ring pic post/announcement two nights later on FB/IG. I wanted to be able to tell a lot of people in person, like my coworkers and his parents (mine already knew).

I forgot to mention - all of our closest friends were there for the proposal, so need to tell them

We kept pretty quiet about it til we booked the venue. Only our parents, our kids, and the two ladies I've asked to be bridesmaids knew when it happened. We were engaged September 2017, announced it through social media February 2018.

I think we waited about 3 days to announce on Facebook and Instagram so that we could just enjoy for a few days and be sure we told all of our family and close friends first! It was nice to take a few days to just enjoy it between the two of us before we started getting all of the texts and questions about when the wedding will be, etc.
