Having an Engagement Party

Right after you have received that proposal from him, the next thing that will come to your mind is to tell everyone about your engagement. You will need to introduce both parents and talk about the wedding and how to plan it. Then, you should also plan who you will invite for your engagement party and when and where to have it.

If you want to have it more relax and comfortable and save more of your money, you can do your engagement party at your parents’ backyard, or at your friend’s house. You can also do it in a fancy restaurant if you want the event to be more formal. Remember that those people that you have invited in your party should also be invited at your wedding since it will be impolite if you forget about them.

While at the party, do not expect to receive gifts from your guests. Since there is no rule if your guests should bring gifts, it is better if you do not expect anything from them. Keep in mind that the main purpose of having an engagement party is to celebrate your engagement with close family and friends. Do not think about gifts yet since you will have a lot of them and you will also have some to give like your bridesmaids gifts for your bridesmaid.
