Engagement Party

We had our engagement party in July 2008. I used to think that you should have your engagement party within a certain time of getting engaged to show that its 'serious.'

I've seen its the engagements that don't have engagement party within so many month that break off. So I was paranoid to make the statement 'yes, we're really getting married.'

Pfft, nuts to that! If I could do it again, I would have it a year to the day of the wedding. That way both sides of the family would have had over a year to let it sink in.

Anyway, it was still a beautiful day and I really hope our guests enjoyed themselves, and I was so greatful so many could come, because I tried my hardest to make it the least "engagement" feeling engagement party there was.

I'm not a big fan of engagement parties.

I get bored easy, so I tried to include activities and surprizes. Like painting.
