Hello!!

We just got engaged 04/03/2020. We booked a venue for 10/23/2021 which is slightly scary as I work full time and will be in 20 hours of internship, plus full-time grad school... It'll be crazy, but I want to get married as soon as we can!!

Anyways!! I have bought a Future Mrs. Raines mug, a sign for our engagement shoot, and a Mrs. Raines ring dish. Any other things you guys purchased after engagement? Just wanted to start a discussion!!

Congratulations!!! This is such an exciting time for you.
Awh that’s so cute. I bought a Mrs. Mellon cup and a ton of items with “M” on them. Wine glasses, hand towels, wreaths, wine stoppers, coasters etc. It’s been so fun.
Best wishes with everything!

I bought a frame and got the picture we took after he proposed framed, and a mug. I also bought socks that say "future mrs. Shenkenberg" because I like fun socks.

I bought a customized name beach honeymoon hat, swimsuits for my honeymoon (BikiniBoo from Etsy is my favorite), and a future Mrs. DeMaria shirt. There are so many things on Etsy! I probably got too much😂

Congrats! I am also newly engaged! I have been looking at different binders to purchase online, as I am printing off all of the information packs venues send to me and need a way to organize them. I have seen a couple of really nice ones online, but haven't committed to one yet.. does anyone have any favorites? I love this website, but have to admit I am also a paper/physical copy kind of girl.

My birthday was a few months after our proposal, so my (now) wife got me a beach bag with my new last name and a baseball hat with my new monogram.

Congrats!!! We got engaged in Disney World so my first purchase was a custom Disney frame right in Magic Kingdom that now holds our proposal photo captured by the Disney photographer (my profile photo). It was magical!
