Hello all!
We are getting married a state away from where my parents live. My parents have many friends that they would like to invite to our wedding but we can't fit in our venue.
My mom would like to throw an engagement party where she lives and invite her friends.
She sent me a draft invitation and it made me concerned what the proper wording should be -
A bridal shower doesn't seem right as many guests won't be invited to the real wedding
It also feels weird to put our registry on there as our wedding details are on the same website.
Any suggestions, thoughts, advice?
Engagement party? Celebrate after the wedding instead?
Thank you!
