What I mean by what is an engagement party: I mean is it a party that you announce it for the first time OR that u have already announced and you are just celebrating it. Do u do invites? what can I do for mine?


Answer
An engagement party has a specific purpose and that is to formally announce the engagement of Mary Smith to John White. The party is usually hosted (planned, organized, and paid for) by the girl's parents. And if the girl's parents are unable to host the party then it can be hosted by the boy's parents or a close friend or relative. The party should take place within 4-6 weeks of the presentation of the engagement ring or proposal of marriage. The couple should NOT host their own engagement party unless there are no other alternatives.

The formality of the party can range from a three course dinner in the banquet room of a hotel to a backyard barbecue at someone's home. Printed invitations with a RSVP should be mailed out at least two weeks in advance of the party.

An engagement party is not a gift giving event so the couple should not be registered with any wedding or bridal registry until after the party has taken place.

The invitation guest list can be as long or as short as you wish. You can reserve a table at a nice Italian restaurant for ten people or you can rent the local community hall and invite two hundred people.

Ideas for outdoor engagement party brunch?




Amarys Per


i'm having an engagement party for myself and fiance (we're hosting) this summer...it's an outdoors brunch. i'm looking for ideas as to what type of music and games...etc. we should have, if we should have any music and games for that matter. i'm pretty new at this whole planning thing
deciding to add that i know the brides parents are supposed to host this but my fiance and i lost both our parents.



Answer
It's fine to host your own engagement party, as long as you make it clear to anyone who asks that you do not want gifts. These aren't for gifts to begin with, even when a parent throws it. As to what to do, I've never been to an engagement party with games and music. That doesn't mean you can't do it, but you might have trouble getting ideas. Also, they are usually on a weekend night and very similar to a casual dinner party.

Also, just as an fyi since you say you're new to all this. You don't have to have one of these unless you want to. Most people don't do them, since the original reason for them was for the parents to meet and both sides get to know the wedding party. People are too separated today for this!
