10 Things You Should Totally Do While You’re Engaged

The months before your wedding are sure to be a whirlwind of seating charts, parties and honeymoon planning. And while all things wedding are good things, it’s still important to take the time to enjoy just being engaged — whether that’s strengthening your relationship or having a ball at your engagement party. Scroll on for 10 awesome things to add to your pre-wedding checklist.

1. Book a photo session. Many couples will use engagement photos for invitations (and, let’s be honest, to post all over social media), but having pictures from your engagement will be a great complement to your wedding photos to come, and will hopefully be a fun photoshoot to do together!

2. Have a wedding detox weekend. Planning a wedding can be all-consuming (and stressful), especially if you and your partner are both heavily involved. Before your wedding, take a weekend to yourselves — no talk of vendors and budgets allowed.

3. Hang with your respective friends. You’ll always have your friends — but since your marriage will be a new priority in your life, your relationship with them might be a little different than it was when you could hit the town with all your *single ladies* on any given night. Give your best friends some love before your big day (beyond your bachelorette party) to show them that they’ll always matter — no matter your relationship status.

4. Go on double dates to establish “couple friends.” Once you’re married, you and your official boo become somewhat of a package deal when it comes to social invites. Having some established friends who are in the same boat will make that transition waaay easier.

5. Seek relationship and wedding advice from newlyweds. Planning a wedding and navigating the first new months of marriage is a fun, change-filled process — so like anything in life, a little advice from those who have come before you never hurts. Who better to ask than couples who just went through the process?

6. Spend time with your immediate families without each other. Your families will both gain an awesome new member on your wedding day, but it also means that your time together will often be different from here on out, since you’ll have your new spouse in tow. Spend some time with your sibs and parents to celebrate your last time as a unit.

7. Create a Pinterest board with ideas for your new home or apartment. If you’re moving in together or want to make sure your current joint space combines both of your styles, set yourself up for max at-home comfort before your wedding day. Fuse your taste in décor together and avoid future disagreements by choosing a style for your new space ahead of time.

8. Discuss what stuff is going to stay with what is going to go in your new place. In addition to establishing a sense of style, it’ll also curtail conflict down the road if you divvy up what furniture you’re going to keep and what you’re going to send to Goodwill before the big day.

9. Keep going on fun and romantic dates. Dating has always been fun, and it will always be fun — even when you’re engaged! Taking time to enjoy each other’s company will only make your anticipation of your wedding that much more fun.

10. Have a serious conversation about what you want from your marriage. This is a biggie, and probs a convo you should’ve had before you got engaged, but it’s not too late. If you’ve committed to spend the rest of your lives together, you obviously make a great team. However, it’s worth delving into some tough decisions — such as where you’ll spend holidays or how many kids you want — before you tie the knot, so that you have clear expectations for your marriage.

It was the TV character arc heard round the world: after learning her boyfriend's dad didn't think she had what it takes to be a journalist, Rory Gilmore 1. Dropped out of Yale. 2. Stole a yacht and stopped talking to her mom. 3. Grew into the kind of journalist who didn't have pitches prepared and didn't ask good questions. But, according to one Reddit theory, Gilmore Girls actually hinted Rory wasn't cut out for the career at the very beginning of the series.

Warner Bros. TV

"Do you guys remember how in S1, at Chilton, Rory was given a very mundane journalistic task about the paving of the parking lot, and she wrote a piece on how everything and everyone becomes obsolete?" one Reddit user asks. "Even though the teacher was praising her, I thought it was the weirdest journalistic angle. It's so... literary and philosophical. Then it dawns on me - well, of course! She isn't a journalist. She is a writer."

As a writer myself, I totally relate, understand, and approve this theory. Journalism uses an objective, straightforward part of your brain, while creative writing requires so much creativity and imagination to breathe life into something other people would find obsolete (like that parking lot piece).

Neil Jacobs/Netflix

A Year in the Life shows us that Rory truly shines in the creative writing world because while her story on waiting in lines leaves something to be desired, she comes alive writing a novelized version of her and Lorelai's life. "She really does appear to have so much fun writing Gilmore Girls," the Reddit user continues.

Despite making many mistakes, leaning into her love of writing isn't actually one of them. She just needed to find the right kind of writing to really shine. Because let me tell you, when you do find that sweet spot, where your soul comes alive and your typing can barely keep up with your brain, you truly feel most like yourself.

Warner Bros. TV

TBH, this is just further confirmation that she deserves to be with Jess Mariano. Who pushed her to be the best version of herself? Who wrote a book and came back just to tell her? (That's right — Jess). It's all very Laurie and Little Women to me!!! And the fact that Rory immediately lets her guard down and spills her guts shows just how comfortable she is with him.

"It's the fact that Rory hasn't seen Jess in four years, but within ten seconds of him sitting down — without him even really ASKING her anything — she is sharing all her deepest fears," Facebook user Victoria TP says. "One conversation, and she's more vulnerable and honest with Jess than she is with any other person in her life."

Netflix

I mean, just look at that final yearning, longing stare!!! I can hear the wedding bells.

It's Taylor Swift's world and we're just living in it. Today, "The Alchemy" singer might be the VMAs' most-decorated solo artist, and the only artist to win Album of the Year four times at the Grammys, but when the popstar released "Love Story" as a part of Fearless in 2008, I don't think any of us knew the song would become one of the most recognizable tunes of the 2000s — or that it'd be the soundtrack for hundreds of wedding receptions, dance parties, and even marriage proposals.

Among dozens of proposal videos taking place during the Eras Tour, one video has gone extra viral for one simple reason: it captures the moments before the proposal, making it even more special. The video, posted by @lexihaen, has garnered three million likes since it was posted on July 16.

@lexihaen First time i witnessed a love story proposal and I got to be the one to record! #tstheerastour#taylorswift#swifttok#lovestory#ttpd♬ original sound - L E X 🪩

"I started recording early because I thought it'd be so cute to have the moments of before she knew," Lex writes on the video. If you didn't know what was about to happen, you'd think the couple was dancing to the song without a care in the world. But look close enough and you can see just a bit of nervous fidgeting. And NYT Bestselling Author Allison Raskin promises nerves are a normal experience.

Is it normal to be nervous for a proposal?

"I think it is helpful for the proposer to remember the moment will be special even if it isn't perfect," Raskin, whose book I Do (I Think): Conversations About Modern Marriage comes out October 15, says. "You don't have to pull off every elaborate detail flawlessly to show your partner you care and can't wait to build a life together. Also, nerves aren't inherently bad! They can be a signal that you are excited and care about what you are about to do, which can be a helpful reframe from thinking you are just panicking."

"It's very exciting to propose but also deeply vulnerable," Krystal Mazzola Wood, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at Confidently Authentic & The Healthy Relationship Foundation, agrees. "You’re truly being honest about how much someone means to you and risking rejection which is scary. It’s natural to be nervous even if you have discussed this issue before and 'know' you will get a 'yes.'”

In the event you're feeling an extra bout of nerves, Mazzola Wood has a few exercises that can help you feel more prepared. "You will want to breathe into your belly (rather than your chest) and try to make your exhales longer than your inhale," she says, like breathing in for four seconds and out for seven seconds. Visualizing the proposal going well can give you a boost of confidence, but for those of us who like to have a plan for every possible situation, it can also help to envision the worst case scenario.

"No amount of coping well with your nerves will make them go away necessarily," she continues. "This is a big step – it’s natural to be nervous. And most people will say that they didn't feel 'ready' to take the biggest risks of their life i.e. proposing, going after their dream job, but they acted courageously anyway!"

Taylor Swift proposals have created a lot of conversation online about whether such a public proposal is appropriate or even enjoyable. "I would be so mad if my nonexistent partner did this to me lol," one Reddit user says. "I actually have a friend who is going with his girlfriend to Eras in Scotland this summer, and they are likely getting engaged fairly soon, and I’m like 'just don’t propose during Love Story.'"

Another disagrees, saying, "If a public proposal is your thing, and you’re a Swiftie, AND a conversation has previously taken place about actually wanting to marry said person, BY ALL MEANS! That is adorable!"

Should your partner have the same interests as you?

Mark Angelo Sampan/Pexels

While I personally wouldn't want to get engaged in front of so many strangers, these proposals always make me emotional. Because for there to be a proposal in that environment at all, both partners have to actually be at the concert in the first place. After having countless conversations with people who totally dismissed my 14-year love for Taylor Swift's music, and its impact on my own writing, knowing these partners agreed to go to the Eras Tour just because they love their significant other brings a smile to my face. And showing an interest in your partner's hobbies & interests, even when you're not interested in them yourself, can be the sign of a healthy relationship.

"You don't need to have the exact same interests as your partner to be compatible," Raskin says. "But it is important to respect what your partner loves — even if it's not your thing. It can also be lovely to take the time to learn more about why they like it and what parts excite them to understand the appeal — and your partner — better. You might even find you enjoy it more than you originally thought!"

"At the very least you want your partner to feel encouraged to talk about their interests with you because it's a wonderful thing to see the person you love excited about something," she adds. "And it's a horrible thing to feel like you need to hide parts of yourself from the person you love."

Getting to know your partners' interests better can, in turn, help you get to know them better. "One of the best ways to build on your friendship with your partner is to show interest in what brings them joy," Mazzola Wood says. Ask questions about their interests, and dive deeper in to why they love a musical artist, a TV show, or a video game.

"This is what it means to build a 'love map' of your partner which is recommended by relationship researcher John Gottman," she continues. "To strengthen a relationship both partners must build their love map by seeking to understand their partner’s interests and dreams. However, it’s also okay and healthy to take time to enjoy your separate interests alone. Healthy relationships which are centered around friendship do involve balance."

How to make a proposal perfect?

Jasmine Carter/Pexels

Before you pop the big question, Raskin recommends making sure you're on the exact same page. "Ideally you wouldn't propose to someone before discussing that you both feel ready to get married first. While a surprise proposal is fun, a surprise engagement is a bit too risky for my blood," Raskin says. "You want to have talked about what marriage means to each of you before committing to it."

To make a proposal go as smoothly as possible there are a few things you can do to make the process more enjoyable. "The proposal itself is normally so fast and overwhelming it can be hard to remember later," Raskin admits. "That's why I think having a plan to celebrate more intimately right afterwards can be a great addition. It will give you both a chance to process what happened and rewatch the video (a few thousand times). So maybe have a second spot in mind or a plan to go back home to celebrate just the two of you."

"The best proposal is unique and personal to each couple," Mazzola Wood says. "Trying to make it 'perfect' can take all the joy and fun out of it. Rather the best proposals are ones that honor the unique couple’s journey and interests."

While a world tour might be the perfect place for one couple, another might choose to propose at the spot the couple went on their first date, a local garden, or even at home. "The best proposal goes back to having a clear 'Love Map' of your partner," she says. "If you’re building the friendship and paying attention, you’ll know the right proposal for the two of you."

If we learned anything from the Great Ticketmaster Fiasco of 2022 (complete with Senators quoting lyrics to each other during the ticket platform's legal hearing?), is that it's way too hard to get concert tickets these days. For popular artists like Taylor Swift, ticket-selling platforms have so many hoops to jump through and qualifications to meet that it's easy to miss a concert, even if you're a mega-fan.

But thanks to these resell sites, Taylor Swift fans around the country (affectionally called "Swifties") are connecting with one another and making sure that tickets are sold for face value instead of an upcharge — even if it's the day of the show. While you brush up on the latest Taylor Swift theories, and read the Emily Henry book that matches the vibe of your favorite Taylor Swift album, check out these social media accounts that can help you score your own tickets to the Eras Tourin 2024.

How much are Eras Tour tickets normally?

How long is a Taylor Swift concert?

Taylor Swift's portion of an Eras Tour concert is three hours long, but there are openers too! In total, you'll be in the venue for around five hours. For my concert day (the stadium is over an hour from my home), I started getting ready at 10am, and left around noon to accommodate public transportation, traffic, and lines. I was in my seat at exactly 6:30!

Internet fans rejoice! The one date we've been waiting two years for has finally arrived: Andrew Garfield and Amelia Dimoldenberg's Chicken Shop Date. The two stars first connected in 2022 on the GQ Men of the Year Awards red carpet, which Garfield attended and Dimoldenberg hosted. Fans honed into their chemistry immediately and, just like Dimoldenberg, started begging for the We Live in Time actor to make an appearance on her Chicken Shop Date web series.

And when they ran into each other again on the 2023 Golden Globes carpet? It was rom-com levels of adorable! "We must stop meeting like this," Andrew Garfield joked. And I think Amelia Dimoldenberg — who is the last word in confidence and boldness — clearly made him nervous because it didn't take long for him to start tripping over his words. "I only ever want to see you," he says, then grabs her hand and laughs as he clarifies he wants to see her "in these kinds of situations."

“'I only ever want to see you' would simply make me pass away, she’s so strong," one TikToker said in the comments, while another asks "why did this have ME blushing." Same y'all.

But the plot thickens because during the long-awaited Chicken Shop Date, Andrew Garfield actually tells Amelia Dimoldenberg they could have gone on a real date (you know, without all the lights, camera, action).

“Don't, like, bring out a ring or get down on one knee, I'm not in the mood today," Dimoldenberg jokes at the beginning of the video. "It's been vibey to the point where you've been avoiding me for two years because the vibes were too much for you to handle, so I'm actually surprised you're here."

After playing a game of "Snog, Marry, Avoid" with Tobey Maguire, Tom Holland, and herself (he picked her to avoid), Garfield says, "This is called flirting Amelia. This is actually a first date." Does this prove men never really stop teasing the girls they like?

"I actually believe, maybe, we could've [gone on a real date]," he adds, "without all of this." Um hello?! I need these two to go on a real date ASAP.

The Chicken Shop Date comes after Amelia Dimoldenberg told Drew Barrymore she'd recently kissed someone. "I'm feeling really good about being single at the moment, but that's because I kissed someone recently," she said. When Barrymore presses for more info ("With tongue?"), she adds, "Yeah, with tongue."

Get it girl!
