- 약혼(하다) <約]]婚> - engagement, to be engaged
- 약혼자 <約婚者> - fiancé (male)
- 약혼녀 <約婚女> - fiancée (female)
- I've seen a soap opera about engagement of American couple. The man asked her "Will you marry me?" and the woman answered "Yes". Immediately after that, the woman said "나 약혼했어!". Not in Korea. We have an engagement ceremony. After engagement ceremony, we use "나 약혼했어".

- 신랑 들러리 - a best man
- 신부 들러리 - a bridesmaid
- 들러리를 서다 - serve as a best man/bridesmaid
- In Korea, We don't need 들러리s at the wedding ceremony. However some couples want 들러리s at the wedding. (Maybe it's a Western-style wedding.) But most couples don't need or have 들러리s.
- 부조(하다) <扶助> - give congratulatory money to aid in a marriage
- 부조금 <扶助金> - congratulatory money
- We give some money instead of gift at a wedding. So we don't have a bridal shower or resister list. In general, we give 30,000 won to acquaintance, 50,000 won to close friend/co-worker. And we can give over 100,000won to the best friend. Sometimes Koreans chip in and buy an expensive gift such as a washing machine, a refrigerator, TV, things like that.

- 신부 <新婦> - bride
