Engagement Party Favors

Anytime you host an event connected to your upcoming nuptials, your guests are going to bring a gift. From a bottle of wine for the engagement party to a backyard grill for the wedding, guests will spend, spend, spend on the happy couple.

There's nothing wrong with this!

BUT, and it's a big but, it is your job as the Mr.&Mrs. to-be to thank your guests appropriately at each function. Of course, this means sending a thank you card after all is said and done, but it also means providing each guest with a little token of your appreciation, something to say, "thank for coming and showing us you care about our big day."

Some couples choose not to host a formal engagement party. If you plan to grab a celebratory dinner with a few friends or family members, you do not need to provide engagement party favors. However, if you send schedule a time and place for the event and send out invitations, you should definitely plan to send your guests home with a memento.

Because you will also provide favors at other various wedding-related functions, you want the engagement favors to be the most inexpensive wedding favors of the bunch. The best wedding ideas for the engagement party are some form of save-the-date piece.
