engagements
Posted by Mishel on August 09, 1998 at 00:58:12:
I was just wondering, how long an engagement usually lasted from the time of 'asking' to the actual wedding day. My idea is that it was not a long period of time. Also, what sort of preparations needed to be done for a wedding for the bride. New clothes I assume, but anything else as compared with today's preparations? And did the groom do much preparation for it? Did middle to upper class people take 'honeymoons'? Where would they be most likely to go?
Sorry so many questions in one post, I did not intend for it!!
thanks...Michelle
