FAQ
What should I write in my engagement announcement post?
Keep it clear and happy: “Big news: we are getting married!” or “We have news, and it sparkles.” The news is the hook, so let it come first.
What is a good caption for an arranged marriage engagement?
Lines like “Our parents introduced us. Our hearts took it from there” or “Arranged by family, approved by the heart” feel honest and warm.
What is the difference between roka and sagai?
Customs vary by community. Broadly, roka is an early ceremony where both families formally agree to the match, while sagai is the engagement ceremony, often with a ring exchange.
Can I use a Hindi caption for an engagement post?
Yes. “रिश्ता पक्का, अब इंतज़ार शादी का” (The match is fixed, now we wait for the wedding) is short and fits most Indian engagement photos.
How do I caption a ring close-up?
Use a line from the ring section, such as “A small circle that means a very big promise”, and keep it short so the photo stays the focus.
