Engagement Party Attire?

Brittany, on January 9, 2017 at 8:55 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13

My family is throwing my fiancé and I a very casual engagement party. Should I still wear a dress.. and should it be white? Just wondering if I should be a little nit more dressed up, and in white? Or just nice jeans heels and a white shirt?

Any opinions or thoughts would be appreciated!

    I would probably wear a nicer dress. If not white maybe an of white or ivory. If not you may consider wearing one of your wedding colors.

    I wore a simple light pink strapless cocktail dress. I didn't want to wear white. I would advise a dress, so you are easily spotted, but you don't have too. I was so exhausted by the end of the night I took my heels off and I barely ate. Make sure to eat a little something and enjoy yourself! Mine was a casual backyard soirée thrown by a close neighbor it was magical and beyond perfect.

    I wore a floral maxi dress. It was a very casual shower and the dress was super comfy.

    You can honestly wear whatever you want! We also had a casual engagement party (an "I do BBQ" theme). I personally chose to wore a cream colored dress.

    I wore a dress to mine. It wasn't anything fancy but we did have it catered and there were about 80 people there. I bought this on Amazon and ended up wearing it again for engagement photos.

    I personally don't want to wear white to any pre wedding events (at least not Anything that's fully white and a dress). Mostly because even though it's completely different settings I don't want FH to see me in white for anything wedding related until he sees me at the wedding!

    Cassie, that dress is so cute! Do you mind sharing where it's from? My bridesmaids want me to wear something similar for my bachelorette.
