Engagements
After the excitement of the marriage proposal, the newly-engaged couple will find themselves thrown into a social whirlwind.
As soon as the engagement is announced, the news will spread fast. Some couples choose the traditional option of a formal announcement, others rely on a few phone calls and word of mouth. Letters, cards and presents will soon arrive, along with congratulatory messages.
As the wedding plans start to be discussed, the couple should organise for both sets of parents to meet each other. Moreover, the engagement is the perfect reason to throw a celebratory party.
