About Engagement

An engagement is the promise to marry. Couples exchange rings, and families meet to bless the match and often fix the wedding date.

In India the engagement is called sagai, mangni, nischayathartham or nischitartham. It may be a small family puja, a ring ceremony with music, or both. Elsewhere it can be a quiet proposal followed by a party with friends.

Engagement wishes celebrate the couple's happy news and look forward to the wedding and the life they will build together.
