Hey guys my fiancé and I just got engaged on December 15 we are really torn whether or not we should have an engagement party. I want to because I feel like we don't plan on getting married until may of 2014(obv.) and I just want time to fly by but if I don't have anything to look forward to in the meantime it may take FOREVER!! But my fiancé does not want to seem greedy by asking for an engagement party, and a bridal shower and then a wedding. Personally I just want something to help ass the time. We are also paying for everything ourselves.... I don't know what the right thing to do is..
