Hi Dafina,
You can write "before update" trigger on "Order" where, if value of Order's dropdown list from Trigger.new is euqal to Booked, then set other field to today.
  
trigger OrderTrigger on Order (before update){

     for(Order updatedOrder : Trigger.new){

          if(updatedOrder.<Dropdown_Value> == 'Booked'){

               updatedOrder.<Other_field> = today();

          }
    }
}

Let me know if this helps.

Remove the angled brackets from both the statements.
Keep it as updatedOrder.Follow_up_Status__c & updatedOrder.Follow_up_Meeting_Booked__c

Replace TODAY() with Date.Today()
Should be fine!
