Engagement Party Theme
Hosting an Engagement Party is a large task, but completely manageable with some help, good planning and the right Engagement Party Supplies. Essentially, you are celebrating the future joining of two lives, so ensuring that all of the necessary items are on-hand and present for the Engagement Party is no small task. Think about which of the following items you want to have on hand for the big day, and make plans to have them made up if none are in place already: Old photos of the engaged couple as children, growing up, and together; Courtship keepsakes; Engagement photographs; A family tree, showing both families joined; and “The Story of How We Met”
Keep the party theme flowing throughout each aspect of
the event. First, the party invitations set the theme and tone of
the occasion. Some guests will bring gifts based on the Engagement
party theme. Use Engagement
decorations, centerpieces,
tablecovers, Thank you notes, invitations, party supplies, hats, blowouts, confetti,
paper plates, cups, napkins etc. Complete the Engagement party theme
with Engagement party favors.

Before the craziness of the wedding planning begins, but just after the hype of the actual marriage announcement comes the Engagement Party, complete with a gorgeous set of Engagement Party Supplies. Usually a fairly casual affair, this party can be a blast for everyone, with the right planning and Engagement Party supplies. First, find the Herbert I. Kavet’s book, called, “Rules for Engaged Couples”. Photocopy some your favorite rules as party invitations, and give the details of the shindig on the back, along with gift suggestions (keep them light and simple, such as a fondue set or gift certificates to go eat out – the newly engaged couple won’t have a lot of time to relax and cook while planning their big day!). Take more of the cartoons, and blow them up to use as placemats, posters and centerpieces. Either use colored paper (and then use that as your theme color, along with the black), or use black and white for a simple, no frills look. Make sure to deck the rest of the party space out with balloons and crepe paper, and you’re pretty much finished decorating. The food should be casual as well, so offer either appetizers only, or a self-serve buffet style meal. Anything that the to-be-wedded couple loves should of course be added to the menu. Top off the evening with a list for all party goers to add to. They can create their own cartoon-style rules for the engaged couple (using felts and paper tacked to the walls) so that the couple can remember the ‘advice’ until the day they tie the knot.
