Engagement Party Planning: What's On Your Checklist?

  1. Set a budget you’re comfortable with. It’s easy to get carried away, so decide early what you’re happy to spend.
  2. Pick a date and time. Make sure your nearest and dearest are free, no one wants to clash with someone’s holiday or big birthday.
  3. Choose your venue. Whether it’s a favourite pub, a garden party at home, or an elegant spot like Easthampstead Park, find what suits your style.
  4. Decide on your guest list. Big bash or something more low-key? It’ll help shape everything else.
  5. Send invites early. A quick message, an email, or a proper card, whatever you choose, give people plenty of notice.
  6. Plan the food and drink. Keep it relaxed, think finger food, grazing tables, afternoon tea, or a buffet everyone can tuck into.
  7. Sort out music or entertainment. A DJ, a live band, or just a solid playlist will help keep the vibe just right.
  8. Pick a cake (or dessert). Doesn’t have to be traditional, brownie stacks, doughnut towers, or something you both love works too.
  9. Add some decorations. Keep it simple with candles, flowers, or a few touches that reflect you as a couple.
  10. Organise someone to take photos. Hire a photographer or rope in a friend who’s handy with a camera, it’s nice to look back on.
  11. Plan a short toast or thank you speech. Just a few words to say cheers and thank your guests for coming.
  12. Think about travel and parking. Share directions, check parking spaces, or pre-book taxis for guests who might need them.
  13. Consider nearby accommodation. Especially helpful if people are coming from out of town, or if you fancy a comfy bed after the party.
  14. Make a loose running order. Not a strict schedule, just a rough plan so things like speeches and food aren’t all over the place.
  15. Add something personal. A memory board, your favourite song playing, or a photo display always adds that extra something.

Engagement Party Venue FAQS

1. How far in advance should we book the venue for our engagement party?
It’s best to book your venue at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if you're planning a weekend event or have a specific date in mind. Popular spots like Easthampstead Park do fill up quickly.

2. Can we bring in our own suppliers, like florists or cake makers?
Yes, you're welcome to bring your own suppliers. We're also happy to recommend local florists, photographers, and bakers we know and trust if you’d prefer a little help.

3. Is there a minimum or maximum number of guests for engagement parties?
There’s no strict minimum. Whether you're planning something intimate or inviting a big crowd, we’ll help you choose a space that fits just right.

4. Do you offer any packages for engagement parties?
We do. Packages can include everything from food and drink to room hire and decorations. They’re flexible too, so we can tailor them to match your plans and budget.

5. Can guests stay overnight at the venue?
Yes, we have plenty of onsite accommodation. It's ideal for guests travelling from further afield—or for anyone who wants to relax and stay over after the celebrations.
