When the legal regulation of engagement was abolished from the Polish legislation, there was widespread belief in the legal environment, that there was no need for such legal codification. The meaning of the promise of marriage was rather reduced into a historical custom, which is rooted in the past, denying its legal significance. Today, doctrine adopts various concepts that could determine the legal nature of the engagement. Except of pointing out the historical features of the engagement institution, the article includes theoretical reflections on the nature of the legal promise of marriage. From the practical point of view of this custom, it is also very important to indicate the legal solutions that might apply in the situation of possible liability of the fiancé who has broken the promise, in connection with the expenses incurred for the organization of the wedding. The paper is complemented by a reference to the juridical regulations of engagement in German and Italian law.
