In a romantic relationship, being engaged means the couple has made a moral commitment and a promise to get married. The moment one partner proposes, and the other accepts, that marks the beginning of their engagement until their wedding day.

An engagement's purpose is to formalize a couple's relationship in the eyes of their families, friends, and society. It also gives them time to learn more about themselves before they get married.

After the proposal, the couple can decide how long before they tie the knot. Some prefer a long engagement without a wedding date in place. Others prefer to keep it short, choosing to get married soon after the engagement. No matter your preference, these 57 quotes on engagement will make you want to seal the deal.
