You have decided to get married, and you prepare your engagement
That's a great idea and we congratulate you on the occasion of your engagement
Before you commit, and announce your engagement, we assume that you have asked yourself (e) the following questions:
Do I love him
Am I ready (e) to live with him (her) all my life
• I am the wife to please my mother to stop giggling buddies already boxes because it would suit well my bank account to my ex bitch, to have someone who will walk my dog, or to become Baroness (or husband of a baroness)
If you answered "yes" to the first two, and "no" to the last question, it'll just get ready to say "yes" to the elected official (s) of your heart!
How to get engaged
It is not always easy to ask someone's hand
Even if you get along very well, and lived together for a while, then you are going to go one step further. "And if she (he) said no? I'd look like a (an) idiot (s)!" Just thinking about it, your hands get sweaty that
To put the odds on your side, give a little humorous or romantic side to your request
And do in word pipez other before
But perhaps you have already discussed, simply
It'll just tell your parents and then your friends
How to announce her engagement
The best thing is that the bride and groom each warn parents of their intention to get engaged
But not by phone, engagement is too important event
A family meal is the perfect opportunity to announce the engagement
To spare the feelings, try the two families are informed at the same time of your engagement
You will separately, your fiancé (e) and you announce to your respective parents
When your parents will know, you can tell your friends, and other family members
Meal Engagement
You can then organize (or leave organize by your parents) a dinner engagement that allow the two families to get to know the organization and outline of your wedding
If you wish, you can also publish a notice in the press
If a dinner engagement takes place in the parents of the bride, the groom will bring flowers to his future stepmother
More stylish (but also more stiff) may ask the florist to deliver the bouquet before dinner time
Once formalized the engagement, the bride and groom will always invited together
A table will be seated next to each other until their first wedding anniversary
And in any case, they never will be celebrating without their fiancé (e). It is really bad
Customs related to engagement are obviously evolved over time
Previously, the application was for the young man.
A girl who dared to ask the hand of a man would have been considered a saucy famous
The father of the pretender, wearing a suit and carrying the hands the famous color gloves "fresh butter" was begging for his son, the hand of the beautiful with the father of it
Once the agreement, the engagement was the period during which the spouses were better acquainted appreciate (morally course). This period lasted about a year, sometimes more
The family of the girl gave a "dot"
This was more or less, depending on the state of wealth of his parents
A dot (Latin back which means "gift") was a sum of money or a keychain or an inheritance, or land .... or four
This sometimes gave rise to bitter reflections, such as "She is beautiful, especially for ... dot
An author crossword (which should be seriously macho) provided for "dot" definitions also cows enjoliveuse", "cosmetic", "the best" pie
For us, the principle of dot disappeared
But in other cultures, dowry still exists and can take many forms, not always democratic: The girl is sometimes "bought" from childhood and, in compensation, the husband's family property offers beautiful family.
