I am thinking of having an engagement party. That is a barbeque/pool party. My FH sister has a really big backyard and a pool she said we could have it there.
we just want something for the family and friends to get together

I think thats a great idea - you can even have it ON the 4th of July - and it will be a 2-in-one thing - celebrate your engagement, and celebrate the 4th of July!! Fireworks for both - and im sure it will be fun!!

Re: What does everyone think?
it sounds like fun, we even considered having our formal e-party (just for family & friends) in my aunt's backyard, I did the research and it would actually cost us alot more than having it out. I have a big family though.
When we figured out the cost of:
- renting tents - renting tabels & chairs - renting plates, glasses (you can buy plastic disposible for cheap) flateware
- hiring a bartender, servers, bus boys, vallet etc.
it would also have been alot of work, clean up & set up, preperations, etc.
We just did this last week so everything is fresh in my mind...

I think it sounds awesome, very informal...a great way for your family and friends to get to know each other..If I wasn't having one in April I would totally do a BBQ/pool party
