A Country Chic Engagement Party

Great favors for any engagement party: He 'popped' the question! These are easy and cheap to make and everyone loves popcorn. Cellophane bags, ribbon, printed tags and of course popcorn. Easy as that!

What a way to welcome the guests than country chic decorations like old lanterns, an old window pane with pictures of the couple, boots as vases and the popcorn favors. When hosting outside, decorations become a little more challenging but why not use what's already there; a tailgate!

No party is complete without punch! Here's an easy, alcohol-free punch:

Pink Lemonade concentrate, lemon/lime club soda, cran-grape juice. You can easily spike it with some vodka ;)

Another cheap, easy and refreshing favor is personalized water bottles. Design a label or download a template, print in color and cut. Tear off the label on the water bottle, use packing tape and cover the whole printed label with the tape and stick to the bottle. Always a great addition to any party!

And who can forget about dessert? If you have a bonfire or fire pit, s'mores are a fun and different idea. No hassle with baking, just set up the items needed in a s'mores bar: chocolate bars, graham crackers, marshmallows and skewers (or twigs). A cute, personalized sign never hurts.

"There's always room for s'more love"

What a way to end a fun, love-filled, country night!
