little doubts about engagement

1. Can we hold a wedding directly instead of an engagement ceremony?

As long as the families of both sides discuss it well, it is actually possible, and there are some places where there is no such thing as engagement. If you are really in a hurry, or the budget is insufficient, you can simplify the engagement ceremony. Both parties have a meal at home, and the boy gives the girl a bunch of flowers and a diamond ring. The sense of ceremony that the girl wants should be satisfied.

2. When to get engaged

There is no specific time. It mainly depends on whether two people and their families are ready to get married, so they can find an auspicious day to get engaged. Generally, the engagement date is 1-6 months before the wedding.

3. Do we have to hold an engagement party in the hotel?

This idea of looking at local customs and families of both sides, if you want to simplify the engagement, the man can send the betrothal gift to the woman's house, and then the two families can have dinner together and talk about some engagement and marriage in the presence of the elders.

if the engagement ceremony is very important, both parties can invite important family members and relatives to the hotel together, generally no more than 4 people, and even numbers are better, and then engage in the engagement ceremony.

4. Who will hold the engagement party?

Normally, it is held by the woman. Just give the money to the woman.

5. Do you need to hire a wedding planning company for the engagement party?

The following three methods can be referred to:

① Buy your own things to decorate.

② Some hotels provide decoration services, so you can ask.

③ If you have already made a wedding plan, you can ask whether the arrangement of the engagement party is provided.
