If so, wouldn&#8217;t it be fun to plan your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/wedding-ideas\/tag\/engagement-party\" target=\"_blank\">engagement party<\/a> around St. Patrick&#8217;s Day and celebrate your heritage with family and friends?*<\/p>\n<p>For such a meaningful occasion, though, we&#8217;d like to suggest a more subtle, sophisticated take on the traditional green palette and St. Patty-inspired accents. The tablescape will have its touches of green and the menu will have its distinct Irish dishes and drinks. But the whimsical symbols like shamrocks, rainbows, and pots of gold will be reserved for the guest favors and the desserts and sweets table.<\/p>\n<p><em>*Of course, you need not be Irish to bring the festive mood of this holiday to your party! St. Patrick&#8217;s Day, originally marked by Ireland&#8217;s Catholics in honor of their patron saint, has since taken on a much wider secular meaning. It is celebrated on March 17th each year before the Catholic season of Lent prohibits any revelry; and now has associations with &#8220;lucky&#8221; 3-leafed shamrocks, rainbows that end in pots of gold, mischievous leprechauns, the Blarney Stone, and all things Irish.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Choose Stylish Table Decorations and Favors<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5939\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/wedding-ideas\/wp-content\/uploads\/st.patricksdaytablesetting.jpg\" alt=\"St. Patrick' Day Tablesetting\" width=\"660\" height=\"432\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Go stylish at your St. Patrick&#8217;s Day-inspired engagement party with a crisp white tablescape accented with verdant touches in the centerpiece and guest favors. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Set an elegant tone to the gathering with intimate table settings for 4 to 6 persons each. Use a base of crisp white or soft ivory to tie all the table elements together\u2014the place settings, the fabric napkins, the decorative <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/Elements\/Zabenya_Rose_Candle.htm\">candles<\/a> nestled on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/Elements\/Erzella_Candle_Ring_Coaster.htm\">pearl rings<\/a>, even the chairs. Then, bring in just subtle touches of green through an all-foliage centerpiece on each table and party favors in elegant green <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/Elements\/Zaarni_Favor_Wrap.htm\">packaging<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Some creative foliage centerpiece ideas you might consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8211; Use whatever foliage is available in your location at this time of the year. Evergreens would be nice if winter is just coming to a close where you are.<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; A tropical look\u2014like our example, using palm fronds\u2014might be possible if you&#8217;re in a warm area.<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; You can also use four-leaf clover plants that are sold at most nurseries and even local grocery stores around March. These would make charming centerpieces that are also (luckily!) budget-friendly.<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; You could assemble a grouping of potted herbs at the center of each table, to be taken home as additional guest favors.<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; Or you could even grow your own <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vegetablegardener.com\/item\/8338\/grow-a-spring-centerpiece\" target=\"_blank\">mini springtime centerpieces<\/a> out of (believe it or not!) discarded carrot tops.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, if you really feel you&#8217;d miss having a <span style=\"color: #339900;\"><strong>floral centerpiece<\/strong><\/span>, some lovely flower options could include bells of Ireland, jade roses, and green carnations.<\/p>\n<p>Delightful <span style=\"color: #339900;\"><strong>favor fillings<\/strong><\/span> for those green-wrapped bundles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8211; small votive glasses filled with gold chocolate coins<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; sugar cookies cut and frosted as shamrocks, rainbows, pots of gold, or leprechaun hats<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; miniature beer mugs holding gold foil-wrapped chocolate balls or rainbow-colored candies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Choose a Green Color Palette with a Twist<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #339900;\"><strong>Emerald green<\/strong><\/span>, symbolizing the &#8220;Emerald Isle&#8221; of Ireland, is all over the place come St. Patrick&#8217;s Day! For your special gathering, though, take a slight departure from this and select a color palette from these stylish options:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>green in monochromatic tones for a refined, tasteful treatment<\/li>\n<li>olive and white for a fresh, clean look<\/li>\n<li>emerald green with gold or silver for a touch of glitter<\/li>\n<li>hunter green and maroon for a rich, warm mood<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Prepare Fun Guest Book Alternatives<\/h2>\n<p>Since an engagement party normally has a small guest list, this would be a perfect opportunity to have a creative alternative to a party guest book. This is also where you can bring in St. Patty Day symbols with artful flair:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Prepare a &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/todaysfabulousfinds.blogspot.com\/2011\/02\/st-patricks-day-subway-art-prints.html\" target=\"_blank\">subway art<\/a>&#8221; poster incorporating the names of the engaged couple amidst words and phrases associated with St. Patrick&#8217;s Day. Then, have shamrock-shaped card stock cutouts for guests to write their lucky wishes and glue these onto the poster.<\/li>\n<li>Look for a globe-shaped bowl (glass or even brass would be fine) and have guests drop in their &#8220;Nuggets of Wisdom for a Happy Marriage&#8221; written on gold cards.<\/li>\n<li>As a variation on the poster above, prepare one with a large rainbow design entitled &#8220;Wishing you a lifetime of rainbows together!&#8221; and have guests write their greetings and wishes directly on the poster.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Serve Up a Hearty Irish Menu<\/h2>\n<p>Think Irish cuisine and what comes to mind? Something hearty and savory, for sure! In fact, it&#8217;s part of early St. Patrick&#8217;s Day lore that Irish bacon and cabbage were traditionally enjoyed before the meatless Lenten season.<\/p>\n<p>For your engagement party, then, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.history.com\/topics\/irish-recipes-st-patricks-day\" target=\"_blank\">here&#8217;s a suggested menu (with recipes for each)<\/a> that&#8217;s appropriately Irish!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>&#8211; Irish soda bread with raisins<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; Irish brown bread<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; Corned beef and cabbage<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; Champ (Irish mashed potatoes)<\/li>\n<li>&#8211; Beef and Guinness pie<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As for <span style=\"color: #339900;\"><strong>party beverages<\/strong><\/span>, you could serve a range of choices to suit every guest&#8217;s taste. Guinness beer, of course, in ice-cold bottles, &#8220;Irish Eyes&#8221; cocktails made with Irish whiskey and green creme de menthe, a refreshing St. Patrick&#8217;s Day party punch (non-alcoholic), and some good strong Irish coffee infused with whiskey! Easy recipes <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imbibemagazine.com\/Irish-Coffee-Recipe\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Play Relaxing Celtic Music<\/h2>\n<p>To go with your classy evening, it would be wonderful to have the music of Irish singers and musicians playing in the background. Set up your iPod or Pandora music player to air a selection ranging from contemporary to traditional\u2014with recordings by performers like The Corrs, Enya, Celtic Woman, and Cherish the Lady. Or if you&#8217;d really like to get guests in the mood for one romantic night, you may even hire a live harp player to perform dreamy Irish airs!<\/p>\n<h2>Special Feature: Original Creations from Some Very Cool Blogs<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bellenza.com\/wedding-ideas\/bistro-images\/sp-features\/02-st-patricks.jpg\" alt=\"St. Patrick\u2019s Day Dessert Ideas\" width=\"575\" height=\"430\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<em>We just love these creations and had to feature them for you.
