Yesterday I finally got the engagement party invitations in the mail. So for those of you wondering – they should be in your mailboxes soon. I must address a concern that I know is going to be brought up over the next month – the guestlist. Since deciding to hold an engagement party, Phillip and I have decided (along with our families) to make this an intimate family affair. Therefore, we are now going to have two separate parties – one in about a month for our close family and family friends, and the other sometime in May for our friends from high school. [P.S. If anyone is compelled to host the said friend party, please let me know.]
Saturday my parents, Heather, and me joined Cameron at the lake house for a walkthrough. We got to take in the layout (it’s even bigger than I remembered) and make plans for where everything is going to be set up. I’m excited.
Yesterday Heather and I were thrifty and purchased VERY REASONABLE centerpieces for the tables and today, Heather is diligently working on nametags. We have decided to go with nametags so that everyone can have “cheat sheets” when trying to remember everyone’s names and it’ll hopefully start some conversations. Tomorrow we’re going to finish the nametags and make some playlists.
Basically, we’re getting ready for the engagement party this week so we can just show up that weekend and set everything up. It’ll be fun and Heather’s done such an INCREDIBLE job planning this event. I’m excited!!!
