So what's the first thing you do after you get the rock on your finger? Have a party of course!
Will and I were lucky enough to have a great family that offered to host it for us so we did not have to worry about a thing! We had our engagement party on December 4th in North Carolina and it was a blast! After compiling my guest list and getting together all the addresses, the invitations were sent and we could not wait for the day to come. I had gone shopping a month before for my outfit and actually bought the first dress I tried on. It was a gorgeous black one shouldered number that I matched with gold Badgley Mischka shoes. I also bought this cute French Connection fur mini jacket to wear from the car to the party.
The party was catered and the food was awesome (or so I heard!) Will and I did not get to eat but a bite because we were so busy talking to everyone. Some of the food was crab cakes, lamb, crab dip with pita triangles, marinated veggies (I did have these and they were to die for!), and so much more! There was also a bartender hired to mix our drinks and also serve beer and wine. I chose to only have water with lemon because I am one to turn red with just a sip of alcohol in me. I think everyone really enjoyed the party, I got many compliments from friends and family after.
We spent a lot of the night being photographed (My idea not Will's!) because I love any chance for a photo shoot. Here are some of the many photos I just got back from being edited.
