An engagement party deserves more than a generic function room and a sad buffet. Hertfordshire’s engagement party venues actually make an impression. Host a private dinner where the chef designs a bespoke menu around your favorite foods—yes, even that oddly specific snack combo you both swear by. Book a space with a late license so the night doesn’t die just as it gets going (Watford and St Albans have solid options for this). Want something different? Some spots offer private tasting sessions, whether it’s whisky, wine, or cocktails made just for you. And if speeches aren’t your thing, pick a venue with enough entertainment to skip them.
