How long after you got engaged did you have your engagement party? Is anyone waiting till they are closer to their wedding? Where did you/will you have your engagement party

Re: Engagement Party
we got engaged in Sept and had our eparty the end of Nov.
I think it is nicer to have it closer to your engagement because everyone is so excited for youa nd it is so new and fresh

Got Engaged August 2006 E-Party is July 2007 Wedding Date is 10.11.08
The only reason we did not have it sooner is becasue we just closed on a new home and it is hectic with the holidays and our upcoming trip to Vegas.
The E-party will be at our new home

Re: Engagement Party
We got engaged on NYE '06 but are waiting for the end of spring/beginning of summer to have our party.
We're going very casual--just friends, at a bar w/an outdoor area, open-bar-bracelet deal (that each guest will pay for him or herself).
We just want to have a good time and celebrate with everyone (especially since not all of our friends will be invited to the wedding) and are not expecting gifts.

we're not having one either..it's just too much $, planning, too many people. (and i dont want people to feel like they have to give gifts) I thought i would be the only one! we will at some point get together with just our immediate families (already did with our parents...but also with our brothers/sisters) just so the immediate families can get to know each other better) that would end up being 11 people including us. (not bad) then again at some point we will have a get together with the bridal party and their dates...thats it really. but it should be nice and simple

Re: Engagement Party
I got engaged Nov 17th and our engagement party is January 28th. You can do it within 6-8 months of your engagement especially if you would like to wait until the spring.

Re: Engagement Party
My Grandma and FMIL ar eplanning the engagement party for us, we are very lucky! We got engaged last June and the E-party probably won't be until late spring or summer. So it will be a year from when we were engaged and more than a year before the wedding.

We're not having it until this up and coming summer!
We were engaged the same time!! I'm a little concerned to have an e-party so late though! Pretty soon we'll both have been egaged 1 year!!
