A Christmas Proposal?<br />
BY LISA MARIE SMITH<br />
Christmas is in full swing,<br />
romance is in the air<br />
and a very special gift is<br />
coming you way...<br />
He pops the question. You<br />
say yes. Hooray! You’re<br />
engaged! Now what do you<br />
do? Here are my tops tips:<br />
1. CALL YOUR RELATIVES...<br />
Your first task - sharing the<br />
exciting news with the world.<br />
And how easy would it be to do<br />
so in 140 characters or fewer<br />
or with a quick status update?<br />
No matter how tempting, it’s<br />
an engagement no-no to not<br />
pick up the phone and call your<br />
family members and friends. All<br />
of them. No one likes to be the last to know!<br />
2. GET YOUR RING SIZED...<br />
Your stunning sparkler is perfect in every way, except for<br />
the wiggle room (or maybe it’s a little tight and turning<br />
your fingertip a not-so-Tiffany-blue). Get it resized<br />
ASAP—after all, you’ll be showing it to everyone and the<br />
last thing you want is to lose the thing an hour after you<br />
get it.<br />
3. GET YOUR RING INSURED...<br />
Nothing can replace the sentimental value of your ring,<br />
but if something happens to it, at least you can get<br />
your (or his) money back. If you have home owner’s or<br />
renter’s insurance, call to add the ring to your policy.<br />
4. SET A DATE—EVEN IF IT’S NOT THE DATE...<br />
After “congratulations” and “let me see your ring,” here’s<br />
the first thing people will ask: “When’s the wedding?”<br />
It’ll save you lots of headaches if the two of you come up<br />
with a vague-yet-specific answer, like “We’re aiming for<br />
early 2020” or “We like the idea of next autumn.” People<br />
appreciate feeling like they’re in the loop, and they’ll also<br />
put the event into their mental datebooks.<br />
