If you're celebrating this Valentine's Day engaged to your SO, congrats! Let me toast you and your union with my virtual glass of cabernet sauvignon. Because after your first ever V-Day with your partner, this is a huge holiday milestone. As romance starts to permeate the air (and your TL), you'll need to come correct with the perfect Instagram captions for your first engaged Valentine’s Day. Chances are, celebrating the holiday when you're engaged will be different from your first few V-Days with bae — there's less stress and you truly have a better sense of what your partner likes.

But if anything, now's the time to break out the extra-romantic and sappy captions. You're embarking on forever with your partner, after all. February is peak season for Instagram posts about true love. And now, apart from an engagement ring, you get to use Instagram to show off true love set to last forever.

If you're announcing your engagement on Valentine's Day, that will be the ultimate flex. But if your peers and coworkers already know, then a cute V-Day date post with a heartwarming caption will also do the trick. Here are 12 romantic Instagram captions to mark the milestone of Valentine's Day as an engaged couple.

  • "They liked it, so they put a ring on it. Cheers to a flawless Valentine's Day with this one. 🥂"
  • "Can you tell we've got the warm fuzzies today? Happy about Valentine's Day this year (and for years to come)."
  • "I want to try with someone who loves me enough to try with me. I want to grow old looking at the same face every morning. I want to grow old looking at the same face every night at the dinner table. I want to be one of those old couples you see still holding hands and laughing after fifty years of marriage. That's what I want. I want to be someone's forever. ― Rachel Gibson"
  • "When you look at me and the whole world fades, I'll always remember us this way. — Lady Gaga ✨"
  • "I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun. ― Jane Austen"

Remember, the most important part of Valentine's Day is that you enjoy it. If you find yourself stressed over choosing the "perfect" caption, a simple heart emoji or "Happy Valentine's Day!" is more than enough. The less time you spend writing your caption, the more time you get to spend with the love of your life!
