An engagement party isn’t a requirement, so if you don’t like the idea it’s ok to skip it. But if you want to get started on your wedding festivities right away, an engagement party is a great way to begin celebrating. It can be any style that you like.

Does an engagement ring have to be a diamond? Absolutely not. Maybe you’ve never pictured yourself as a traditional bride. Or maybe you’re just not into diamonds. If you’re looking for a unique or less expensive alternative, a gemstone engagement ring could be the perfect choice for you.

Can you really plan a wedding in only 6 months? The only true requirements for a wedding are the marriage license, an officiant and a ceremony. As long as you start with that - you’ve got a wedding! No matter how much time you have, begin by booking your ceremony venue and officiant. As soon as you’ve got that covered, you can find your reception venue.
