Engagement

An engagement is a commitment from one person to another to eventually become legally wed. Custom has it that a man will make a proposal of marriage to a woman, usually taking place in a romantic setting, and getting down on one knee, and offering up an expensive piece of bling. Upon acceptance, the two are officially engaged. There is no established time range between the first day of engagement and the date of a wedding. It can be as little as a few weeks for up to a year.
