Who is invited from the groom's side to the engagement party

My parents are throwing my fiance and I an engagement party. Since my parents are hosting it they are inviting all their close friends. Is it proper etiquette not to invite anyone from my fiance's side of the family but his parents and brothers?

    Thank you for answering, that was what I thought. I am not sure what my mom is thinking not inviting his side of family. You made a very good point engagement parties are meant for both families. Thanks!
  • Just remember- whomever you invite to the engagement party should also be included on the wedding guest list.

    We had a rather small engagement party with close family (from both sides) and our bridal party plus 6-8 other close friends. Just because of peoples physical location the party ended up being mostly my family and not my fiancé's.., but they still all got invited
