2. Pick your wedding date
- Now that you have celebrated sit down, just the two of you, and decided on an ideal wedding date. That might be in 6 months, that might be in 2 years, but sit down and be honest about how long you both need to prepare to get married. There are no set rules for how long you need to be engaged but the typical couple is engaged for at least a year before they say “I Do.”
