Your photo never leaves your device

An engagement party comes together faster than a wedding, but a save-the-date still helps — especially if friends are traveling in to celebrate the newly engaged couple.

Announce the news and the date in one go: add a ring-shot or a favorite photo of the two of you, pick a template, and send a card that sets the tone for everything to come.

When to send

Send engagement-party save-the-dates 4 to 6 weeks ahead for a local gathering, or 2 to 3 months ahead if out-of-town guests will travel.

What to include

  • The couple's names
  • The party date
  • The host city or neighborhood
  • A celebratory line such as 'They're engaged!'
  • 'Invitation to follow' if details are still coming together
A close-up of the ring or a candid reaction photo makes a fun, on-theme engagement card.

The first step

A save-the-date is step one

The save-the-date holds the day. Next come the invitation and the RSVPs — and that’s exactly what ScanRSVP is built for. When the date gets closer, set up a free RSVP page with a QR code guests scan, an automatic guest list, meal choices, and reminders, all in one place.

Frequently asked questions

Do you send save-the-dates for an engagement party?

They're optional, but a quick save-the-date is helpful when guests are traveling or when the party is during a busy season.

Is an engagement party save-the-date the same as a wedding one?

No — this is just for the party. You'll send a separate wedding save-the-date later once you set the wedding date.
