Engagement Party

So I had my engagement party on Saturday and it went really well. I was so excited about it and I was so worried that no one would turn up, but everyone did! The venue looked amazing, Cookie had pink and orange balloons delivered and set up in the room. Everyone loved the food but I hardly got to eat any of it - and the cake! OMG the cake - it was a massive white vanilla cake with butter cream icing and the decorations on the cake matched the engagement party invites with little love birds sitting on a branch. It looked very home-made and was yummy. And when you cut into the cake the inside cake was orange and pink marble effect. I only just finished eating the cake today and it was so tasty.

I got my hair and make-up done and wore extremely painful shoes for the first hour of the party. I'm just so amazed at how quickly the party went, but the time it was 4.30 I thought that only an hour had gone by. I'm now a little worried that my wedding day will go so quickly also. I don't want to be too drunk or miss out on eating all the good food.

It was a great day and everything went smoothly and I was all talked out by the end of the night. The party was over by 7pm so we went home and the girls took me out to the cinemas to see "Bridesmaids" which was surprisingly funny and not too overly sentimental. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the organic popcorn which was sweet and salty. YUM.
