Backyard Engagement Party

Jasmyn, on March 21, 2022 at 7:45 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 8
My parents are hosting an engagement party for my fiancé and I. We’re about to order invitations, oddly every invitation template for a backyard “I Do BBQ” does not have an end time just a start time. Would you be put off seeing an end time on an invitation for something so casual?


Thanks in advance!!

    Nah, I wouldn’t care. People tend to get the hint when to leave and putting an end time may deter people who are running late. It is fine.

    I feel like most invites for any events, including weddings and pre-wedding celebrations don't have an end time listed on the invitation.

    I agree, I've never seen an invitation to anything with an end time. People leave on their own schedule.

    I wouldn’t really care, but I’ve also never seen an end time on any kind of invitation before.

    It doesn’t bother me either way. Most invitations don’t have end times and even ones that do guests typically stay past the end time anyways. But to answer your question, no it wouldn’t be off putting to see an end time.

    I agree with the others, it wouldn’t be off putting but it would be unusual

    I've only ever seen an end time on invitations to kids parties, honestly.
