If you are still settling into your new place then wait for a little while before you talk to him about this. Once things are settled for yall, then bring up the subject with him.

Why don't you ask him what his favorite season is, and talk about it in a way that is not high pressured.

If it were me, I'd come right out and say, "so now that I have the ring when do I get to be your wife?" Don't beat around the bush, I think that'll just get you the answers you don't want! You have to let him know that this is something you are serious about and you would like to know a date! However if funds aren't there to have the wedding you really want, don't push to get married right away just because you want to. Take the time and save the money. Setting a date is easy, and you don't have to tell everyone right away. You could casually remark to him "what do you think about this weekend in August (or whenever) to get married??" Communication is the key!!

I would just come right out and ask too. We don't leave much unsaid. I like that about our relationship. If there is something on your mind you should be able to talk about it. Good luck!!:D

I think it depends on the type of person your FH is ... and how long you have been together and how long you have been engaged already. (ie; if you just recently got engaged maybe give it a couple of months)

I had a similar problem with mine before we finally got married ;) We had been together for 6 years and talked about getting married for the longest time but just never set a date. I think I usually brought it up when we would run into someone and he would say "this is my fiance" and then I would say later, "So how long am I going to be just the fiance"? Other people would ask for me too ... "So when are you guys going to make it official" So that helped a bit too.

Maybe after you guys get settled in your new place, talk to him about it ... you can use us as a topic starter! Tell him you saw something about long engagements vs shorter ones ... then ask him what he thinks. That should get you started.

:goodluck:
