Did You Recently Get ENGAGED?!?!

Did your significant other recently POP the Question over the holidays or even Valentine's Day??? Let me guess...you want to tell the world, celebrate, and now get your families acquainted with one another. So pretty much...an ENGAGEMENT PARTY is in order!!

Keep a few of these ideas while planning this party.

1. It isn't your wedding. NO need to go over the top. Keep in low key and simple. You can go all out for your wedding.

2. Keep it fun. Remember that this is a way to celebrate your love for each other and your lives come together as one. Make sure that the stress of introducing families doesn't take away from that.

3. Again, it is about you and your love, make it fun! Do something that the two of you enjoy, theme it around how you met or a hobby that you share.

A few great ideas for an Engagement party are...

College Themed Party




If you and your future spouse met in college, what would be more perfect than to have a college themed engagement party! Have everyone dress in your universities colors and have easy appetizers and possibly a game...Who knows the most about the Bride/Groom?


Activity Based Event



A few more ideas would depend on the interest of the Bride and Groom as well as the family. Laser Tag, Bowling, & a Wine Vineyard Tour & Tasting are few ideas that would work for some families, but not all. Follow up the Bowling and Laser Tag with a dinner before or after and that could be a fun way to get to know the other family. A visit to a locate Winery would be a great way to taste a few wines for the wedding as well announcing your recent nuptial!

And please do not forget to enjoy! Congratulations!
