Can the groom's family have an engagement party for the couple? The bride's family lives three hours north and may want to have a party up there. How do we do this?

Of course! My in-laws had a party at their home (4 hrs away) for their friends and family and my mom had one for us - both parents were invited to each others party too! It was a great way to meet each other's extended families and friends before the wedding reception! And, it was a meet and greet - no gifts!
I don't see anything wrong if you want to have a party for people where you live, just be sure to invite the bride's parents. They could do the same where they live.
I would think that the people who would be invited to the party would be relieved not to travel 3 hours!
