To gift or not to gift….that is the question. Read below to find out more information on Engagement Parties and get a sneak peek into our Quick Guide to Gifting!

The Engagement Party: Designed for the Bride’s family to host, this soiree was generally where the Engagement was announced. Because of the spontaneity involved gifts were not given. Now days people can celebrate their Engagement in a multitude of different ways; anything from a BBQ to an elegant cocktail hour will do, all depending on the couple being celebrated.

Gifting Verdict: Unless you want to bring a bottle of wine or champagne to the host, no gift is required. (unless stated in some sort of invitation)
