How to Throw an Engagement Party

An engagement party may be the happy couple's last chance to indulge in the joy of being engaged before the chaos of wedding planning begins.

Steps:

1. Create unique party invitations with a fun or silly picture of the couple on the front.

2. Go overboard on decorations. Things that might be tacky or over-the-top at a wedding might be perfect for the engagement party. Think heart-shaped Mylar balloons and plastic silver champagne glasses.

3. Find a good picture of the couple. Either frame it or have it blown up to poster size at Kinko's and hang it in a prominent place.

4. Serve food that is fun, romantic and easy to eat and serve. Ask your caterer for tasty finger foods and appetizers and several decadent deserts. Also make sure you have plenty of champagne as well as some fun "themed" drinks, like a Love Cocktail for instance.

5. Set up a microphone in a prominent location so that, as the evening progresses, people can make toasts to the happy couple.

6. Buy two large white sheets of poster board. Write "Wedding Advice From the Women" across the top of one and "Wedding Advice From the Men" on the other in heavy, dark marker. Attach a pen to each and encourage guests to leave notes about things they learned while planning their own weddings.

7. Give these two sheets to the couple when the party ends.

Tips:

Throw the party in the evening when people are much more inclined to dance and be romantic.

Warnings:

An engagement party is probably not a good candidate for a surprise party. You don't want to risk having the couple stumble into the party in the middle of a "where to have the wedding" fight, or a hot passionate kiss, whichever is more embarrassing.

Info for Cos Cob Limousine Service

Cos Cob is located in Fairfield County just west of Stamford between Darien and Port Chester along Highway 1 near Putnam Lake. Located in the southwestern most corner of Connecticut, Cos Cob sits on the coastline of the Long Island Sound.

Community derives from the Algonquian language which means "high rock." The town Cos Cob was incorporated not much after Greenwich.

It had an artist colony, known as the Cos Cob School, in the late 1800s and early 1900s and a new one growing now. Situated on Cos Cob Harbor on Long Island Sound, the community's role as a commercial shipping port disappeared with the damming of the Mianus River.

Local attractions include: Cos Cob Harbor, Greenwich Creek, Mianus River, Fyre Lake, Putnam Lake, and Bruce Museum. There is nearby shopping in Stamford.

Bush-Holley Historic Site in Cos Cob is the home of Connecticut's first art colony, the 1730's House neighborhood inspired over 200 artists between 1890 and 1920, including American Impressionists Twachtman, Hassam, Lawson, and MacRae whose works and the site's history are presented through tours, including the 19th-century Cos Cob Post Office - now a visitor center with changing exhibitions. Film and archive documents the colony's origins.

The Bush-Holley House is a National Historic Landmark in Greenwich, Connecticut. It was constructed circa 1730 and in the late nineteenth century was a boarding house and the center of the Cos Cob art colony.
