Frequently Asked Questions 

Before you leave us today, be sure to check out our brief FAQ section to get all the answers you need to your last-minute questions. 

What Do I Say In An Engagement Post? 

185 Fantastic Engagement Quotes For Facebook And Instagram (3)

You can say whatever you want! We think it’s best to keep them short and sweet, as people rarely spend time reading a huge chunk of text on social media.

You can use one of the many captions we provided you with earlier, or one of your own. 

We think a sentence or two is a great length, especially when shared with a picture of you or your engagement ring.

When sharing a photo, a photo of the two of you showcasing the ring is always good! 

Do I Have To Announce My Engagement?

No, you do not have to publicly announce your engagement on social media if you don’t want to. The choice is entirely yours. 

Most people tend to tell their family and close friends privately before posting on social media.

No one wants their parents or grandparents to find out over the internet! Of course, who you tell and when is entirely your choice. 

We think it’s nice to wait a few days before telling anyone.

Sure, the excitement can get to you and you want to share this wonderful news with everyone, but having a few days as a couple to relish in your little bubble can be nice too.

Of course, this is entirely your choice to make. 

If you are someone that shares a lot of their life on social media, then announcing your engagement will feel quite natural.

However, if you are a private person or share very little on social media, do not feel the need to share your news with the world. 

Should I Post My Engagement Ring On Instagram?

Again, this is a personal choice that you need to make. Some people prefer not to showcase their ring, especially if it was expensive, for safety reasons.

If your location or home is easy to find on social media, the last thing you want to do is broadcast expensive items you have there. 

It’s also worth not listing the brand or the ring to prevent people from working out how much it cost and if it is of value. 

A good compromise is to post a photo of the two of you with the ring but without a close up.

You might choose to share a picture of your partner (or you) proposing if you were lucky enough to get a picture of this. 

Consider carefully whether you want to share a picture of your engagement ring on social media.

It’s worth speaking to your partner too and coming to an agreement on this before either of you post on social media. 

Should I Post My Engagement On Social Media?

If you want to, yes! Posting your engagement on social media is a wonderful way to let people in your life know that you are engaged without needing to contact them all individually.

It can save time, and if you are into likes and comments, it’s a sure fire way to rack them up! 

You will be surprised by the number of people that will like and comment on your engagement post.

It’s worth capitalizing on that if you enjoy using social media and replying to comments if you aren’t into it, then it’s not the end of the world if the picture isn’t on there. 

Generally, four moments in your life will get the most likes and comments when shared on social media.

They are: 

  • The first engagement photo you post 
  • The first wedding photo you post 
  • Your pregnancy announcement (if you decide to have children)
  • The first photo of your first child 

What Photo Should I Use For My Engagement Post? 

You have a few options here. You can go for a picture of your hand with the ring on your fourth finger.

Another option is a selfie of you showing off your new ring, a picture of you and your partner with the ring, or you can post a picture of your partner proposing. 

Some partners will plan ahead to have someone waiting to capture the moment they propose as a photo or video.

Not only are these wonderful memories to have, but they make brilliant photographs to share! 

Consider your options and pick the photo you like the most. It doesn’t need to be the most aesthetically pleasing photo ever.

After all, it’s showcasing your love, not your photography skills!
