Wedding planner apps use the same wedding planner software as you would find on a wedding website. The tools are exactly the same, you get the RSVP list , a variety of to-do-list's, invite list and seating charts. The free iPhone wedding planner app has all of this and so much more. Now that you know what tools you need to plan these occasions, below are a few tips to help you to plan the engagement party easier.

1. The people you invite to the engagement party should also be invited to the wedding. Most engagement parties are for 10-100 people, but this is not set in stone.

2. This is not an occasion for full sit down dinner save that for the reception. A family style buffets, hors d'oeuvres platters and tasting stations are great ideas for an engagement party.

3. Most often, the parents of the bride will throw the party, make certain that you choose a completely different theme, then the wind you intend to use for your wedding. You should downplay the engagement parties so as to not upstage your wedding.

4. If you planning your own engagement party is an excellent time to interview caterers. If you're happy with a caterer you use for your engagement party, then by all means use the same one for your wedding reception.
