| My ENGAGEMENT party pictures Ok so I had my engagement party 10/20/07. In my culture, once the guy proposes, you have a party a few months later to celebrate and bless the occasion. It is basically like a wedding only with less people. We had about 100 people, it felt and looked like a real wedding minus my big white dress (substitute with a big pink dress). The colors were pink and green. There was a priest there, who came, said a Prayer to bless the ring and us as a couple. Then we have this tradition where both families get in line and put all kinds of jewelry on me, hence why I have like a dozen necklaces on me in the pictures..lol They dance their way to me and put necklaces, bracelets, watches, rings and earrings on me. It was so much fun. Here's some pictures of it all...The little boy is my ring boy and nephew Jacob

| The bottle of wine was our favor, we created our own label and we closed up the back of the label like a corset, with satin ribbon. Also the last pic is a wide view of the banquet room.

| It's just how our culture is. It's really fun but it's a lot of work too. But no complaining here, we had a great time. Thank you for the compliment.
