Moviegoers, sentimental types, or art enthusiasts, no matter your style, there are plenty of ideas and themes that you can consider.
Relaxed back garden BBQGo for a relaxed summer BBQ party in your garden (or your "Bffs" patio would work too). Decorate your garden with romantic string lights, aesthetic lanterns and create seating areas with cushions, rugs, or outdoor chairs. Set out a "pimp your drink" station, exquisite tin buckets of flowers on tables, a chalkboard menu with what's cooking, and classic homestyle dishes for a more immersive experience.
GLAM brunchA vintage glamour engagement celebration with a luscious brunch is a no-fail way to revel with loved ones. Go super glitz and glam with everything; think of a fancy brunch restaurant, specialty-themed brunch cocktails, and toast with mimosas to savor the start of the relationship.
Taste wine and cheeseParty in style with the perfect pairs: Stilton with port, Brie with Beaujolais, and Gouda with Riesling - just like the newly engaged happy couple. If wine is your liking, serve strong cheeses with appetizers and your all-time favorite wine.
Casino nightYou can't go wrong with a Vegas-style fun casino night. Deck up space with black and red motifs and encourage a total James Bond vibe with a black-tie dress code.
A casual picnicTake your engagement party to a local park with plenty of blankets, cute picnic baskets for the guests, picnic specials like stuffed focaccia, Vietnamese summer rolls, and mini frittatas. Hang streamers and tassel garlands to give a romantic touch to your eve.
Beach bonfireHost a post-twilight engagement party at the beach. Invite friends and family before the pink and orange hues cover the sky, serve refreshing drinks, atmospheric music, and a beachy backdrop. Later into the night, roar up the fire and pull out the marshmallows.
