ਮੰਗਣੀ ਦੀਆਂ ਲੱਖ ਲੱਖ ਵਧਾਈਆਂ। ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੋੜੀ ਨੂੰ ਸਦਾ ਖ਼ੁਸ਼ ਰੱਖੇ।
ਦੋਹਾਂ ਪਰਿਵਾਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਰਿਸ਼ਤਾ ਪੱਕਾ ਹੋਣ ਦੀ ਬਹੁਤ ਬਹੁਤ ਮੁਬਾਰਕ।
ਮੁੰਦਰੀ ਸੋਹਣੀ, ਜੋੜੀ ਉਸ ਤੋਂ ਵੀ ਸੋਹਣੀ। ਵਧਾਈਆਂ ਜੀ।

Short and glad
An engagement wish is the first of several you will send this couple, so keep it light. Congratulate them, say you are happy, and leave the long blessings for the wedding. If you know the story of how they met or how the families agreed, one line of it makes the wish personal.
Make it yours
- To a close friend: "You said you would never find anyone who likes old songs as much as you do. I am told he hums in the kitchen. Congratulations to you both."
- To a sibling: thanks to the new member for taking them on, said with a smile.
- To a colleague or a neighbour's child: both names if you know them, and blessings to both families.
For the families
In many homes the engagement is as much the families' occasion as the couple's. A wish to the parents, "Congratulations on Simran's engagement, and blessings to both families", is good manners and is much appreciated, especially from elders and neighbours.
What to avoid
- "When is the wedding?" in the same breath. They will tell you.
- Comments on how long it took or how young they are.
- Sharing the news or photographs before the family does.
Make it yours
- Name both people if you can.
- A light joke works for close friends. For a colleague or a relative you rarely meet, keep it simple and warm.
