You just got engaged and once the butterflies wear off, you have a number of fun things to check off your to-do list. Between telling your loved ones the big news, jewelry education, and planning the big day, it can be hard to decide where to start. Our engagement experts at Rogers & Hollands and Ashcroft & Oak are here to help break down some important post-proposal tasks and help you start your journey!
Tell your family and friends with a phone call or a visit, maybe even a party.
An engagement party can be a great way to share the news with everyone. Celebrate with great food and drinks, and of course, show off your new jewels. Be sure to call all of your close loved ones - maybe even hop on a video call to give them the whole story. Make sure that everyone close to you knows about the big news.
Educate yourself on jewelry maintenance, care, and protection.
Engagement and wedding jewelry is an investment. Get familiar with all things jewelry insurance, make sure you have and understand what your protection plan covers, utilize professional cleaning services available at all Rogers & Hollands and Ashcroft & Oak stores, and learn about how to clean and care for your jewelry.
Get your ring sized to perfection.

Give credit where it’s due!
Remember to dish out a compliment or two to your partner for picking the perfect ring and creating the ultimate memory. Chances are, they were nervous and made it happen all (maybe) without you even knowing! Let them know how much you love it, them and the life you are ready to create together.
