Immediately announce the news with a ring photo
“Don’t let social media dictate that moment for you. First, be mushy, hug, and let those tears run down your face (even if you’re wearing mascara). Then, give your family a call or go visit them in-person if you can. Consider uploading a photo after you’ve notified your loved ones, but don’t make it all about the rock. While ring photos are lovely, they kind of take away from the engagement being about you and your significant other. Instead, post a happy shot of you and your soon-to-be.”

Make guest-list promises
“Accept congratulations, but don’t feel obligated to extend an invitation to everyone in your close circle. Have a conversation with your partner (and family) prior to drafting up an initial guest list.”

Put off getting your ring insured
“I’ve heard crazy stories of stones falling onto subway tracks or rings getting stolen and not being insured. Get an appraisal from your jeweler and then call your renters or homeowners insurance to get it insured right away.”
