Engaged and ready to celebrate? It’s time to thr Engaged and ready to celebrate? It’s time to throw the ultimate engagement party! Whether you’re planning something intimate or going all-out, your engagement party should reflect you as a couple – fun, personal, and full of love. Ready to start planning? Head to the link in our bio for our full guide to planning your engagement party! [Image one description: A shot of a bright tablescape with fresh foliage hanging overhead, overlayed by a navy blue text box that reads: “How to plan an engagement party with Polka Dot Wedding”. Image two: The navy background reads "Planning an engagement party will most likely be one of your first forays into planning a big party and we know it’s completely overwhelming! Let's dive in a few of the main elements you'll need to tackle. Set The Tone. Think about what you want out of the day and make a list of 3 top things you value the most. Do you want every single family and friend you can think of there? A drop-dead delicious cake? Is it important that the venue is easy for your guests to get to? Or that you allow your family and friends to make a speech?" Image three: text reads "Set The Budget. Budget is always the icky part of any party, but we all know it has to be done. Sit down and crunch the numbers. How much can you afford to spend? How much buffer can you build in? Your budget should include your venue, food and drink, entertainment, decor/flowers, cake and invitations. Pick Your Vendors. Looking for a casual cocktail party? Or a grand sit down dinner? There are so many options for an engagement party and so much fun to be had. Your vendors should suit the style of the party you want to throw, just like a wedding, these days anything goes!” Image four: text reads "Confirm The Details & Delegate. You’ve checked so much off your list, so as the event creeps up on your calendar, its time to confirm the details with your vendors and make sure you delegate anything you don’t need to do on the day (brother Tom would probably be very handy lugging the beer into the venue for instance!). Celebrate! Phew! Now that all is said and done, it’s time to celebrate. Soak up the moments and make the most of it together!"]
