well if you don't want it then you don't have to do it. Or you can do something very casual, many people just had a small get together at someones house to celebrate

Re: not to sure
dont worry i dont think i want one either anymore ... cause it just something else that is becoming a big pain!!!! ... if i do have one i'm not really having anythin huge ... i'm just going to have it at like a VFW hall ... and the only reason i'm having it there is cause its to cold to have it outside!!!!

Re: not to sure
I'm not having one. We're saving up all our money for the wedding, and couldn't possibly afford 2 parties. No big deal, I don't feel like I'm missing out. Hardly any of my friends and none of my family members had E-Parties, so, it's not something I've always dreamed of or anything.
If you want one and can afford one - great.
If you're not sure and don't really want to spend the money - it's not a big deal to pass.
shoot thats like a party everyother month on top of FH b-day party son's 3rd b-day daughters 2nd and my
all next year..

i tottally agreew ith you ... i cant afford one ... the only reason why we may have one is because FH aunt and mom want to throw us one ... thats why if we have one it wont be anythin big!!!

Re: not to sure
put it this way.... if you have to pay for your own e-party IMO it's not worth it.... if you parents are FIL's want to throw you a party and pay for the entire thing, than by all means.... cash in!

Re: not to sure
we didnt have one cuz we couldnt afford it... my parents are moving and would love to have a family (both sides) for a big bbq once we get settled in. but we just sent out engagement announcements and those who wanted to send gifts did so and those who didnt no big deal!
