Parent-teacher conference: arrange the first parent-teacher conference. If the parents haven't met, it is necessary for the matchmaker or the couple to introduce themselves.

Determine the time of engagement ceremony: after the families of both parties negotiate the bride price, dowry and other issues, they can set a specific engagement date.

Preparation of engagement items: it is best for both men and women to make a list first, and then prepare them one by one to avoid omission.

Determine the engagement hotel: there are many items to be prepared for engagement, which are also very complicated. If the couple just want to invite a few close relatives and friends to have a simple meal, they can do it directly at the woman's house.

Invite guests to the engagement party: After everything is ready, you can send invitations to the guests, preferably one month or half a month in advance, so that the guests can arrange their time.

The essence of engagement

1. The engagement shall be concluded without agency, otherwise it will have no legal effect; In other words, the engagement can only be established if both men and women agree.

2. Only those who have the legal capacity for engagement can engage in engagement. The legal definition of engagement ability is based on age: male 17 years old, female 15 years old. If a person enters into a marriage contract in violation of this provision, the marriage contract is not invalid, but the parties or legal representatives may request the court to cancel the marriage contract, because minors under the age of 20 need the consent of legal representatives.

3. The engagement should not be enforced. Although the engagement should be observed, it should also follow the wishes of both parties. If one party fails to perform, it cannot be enforced.
