Re: How soon?

I think you can have it as soon as you want or wait. From what I have seen in magazines and such, you shouldn't have it any longer than six months after your engagement. I got engaged in April and mine is not until October because we are doing it exactly the day of the wedding only a year earlier. Corny, I know. But my maid of honor just got engaed a week and a half ago and is not getting married till 08 and is having hers in September. I think its really depends on what works for you. Good luck and Congratulations!

Congratulations on your engagement!!!

Our e-party was about 2 1/2 months after our engagement, and it was held at my fi's parents house (I know that doesn't help you out very much!).

Re: How soon?

We got engaged 7/2 and we are having our engagement party/dinner this weekend!!!


I am so excited.
We decided to do a dinner with family & close friends because we don't want a big wedding and if we did a big engagement party it would be like our wedding. So we are having 45 people on Sunday at Il Fagiano (sp?) in Whitestone.

I will post a review next week with pics hopefully!

You can have your engagement party as soon as your ready!!!

I got engaged on 10/30/05 and had my party on 03/05/06 - at Russo's on the Bay.

Originally, we were going to have the party in June - but FH thought it was too close to the wedding (a yr mark)
