    My mom! I was literally in the car ecstatic and staring at the phone until I had enough service to call her! My FH has called her to ask her permission so she already knew and she hadn’t said anything...although she did keep texting me asking how the weekend was going...

    The first person we told was my best friend that now lives an hour away. We video chatted her because I was just so excited and couldn’t wait to tell her in person!

    I FaceTimed my parents, they were anxiously waiting as they knew it was happening. Then my sister and my BFF, THEN he was allowed to post it on Facebook. We called his mom a few hours later (it was NYE and we were on vacation so he didn’t want to call until after midnight)

    I didn't really have to share too much. All my family and friends were there when he did it.

    Well my best friend and maid of honor was hiding in the bushes taking pictures and video taping so she was the first official person to know. but we immediately called our parents to tell them and our siblings.

    The first person we called was my mom. She was so shocked and had no idea it was coming, so it was a nice surprise.
