e-party?! HELP!!!!

Ok, who's having an E party, where are you having it, how many people, are you doing favors? I'm at a complete loss! FMIL told us she'll give us some $$ towards the party, but we're still undecided as to what we'd want and how many people and where, so basically, we're undecided about everything having to do with the party, lol. one good thing, she said the $$ is for the party, the wedding or apartment stuff (not including the other help she's giving towards the wedding) which is super nice of her and pretty sweet. Sooo come on ladies, help me out!

not having one...but why don't you have a BBQ at a family member's backyard or something?

its something casual and fun and then you can do something like mini bottles of bbq sauce with personalized labels that say something cute on it

We are having out eparty at a catering hall (Roma View) in Queens. I like it there a lot...we are spending a lot on this party...and its really turned into a mini wedding! It is costing close to 10 grand...which is really not what I wanted to spend...but our guestlist got out of control...



that is really nice that fmil has offered to give you some money towards the party.

We arent really having a theme...and we ordered our favors from favorfavor.com...the ones that I was raving about...they are measuring spoons that have really cute sayings on them!

I feel like 'If you invite this person, then you have to invite that person' Its annoying...but I actually took off family member that I dont care for, and wont miss if they are not there...so that was the way that I did it...However my parents are not happy with this...I really didnt care...lol

Everybody always has something to say!!! So annoying!!!

we're having our engagement party at marconi manor in islip. its a small low key kinda hall. our guest list got a bit out of control as well. if everyone comes it could be 120 people. we invited our closest friends and for family we did immediate family and our parents aunts and uncles but not their cousins.
we're giving out favors...i plan on gving out save the date magnets and organza bags filled with hershey kisses or something of the sort.

My friend did a renewal of her vows ceremony and reception there. She was married in Vegas and for their one year anniversary they did a renewal so that everyone could be there. Marconi manor is nice and the food is good

i went to marconi manor for an unlces 70th birthday party. i had never heard of it before. i guess its a little popular since a few of you have had things there. i'm more confident about the selection now that the two of you girls have also commented on teh quality of food. yay!!
