1. "So how long have you two been together now?"

Implication: You’ve been dating even longer than we have, but we’re engaged. What’s the problem?

2. "Remind me, how did you two meet again?"

Implication: Have a good story because, take it from me, you’ll be made repeat it fifty times at your engagement party.

3. "Will you ever make an honest woman of her, hah?"

Implication: I don’t even know what this really means, but I’ve heard people say it at other engagement parties so I thought I’d go for it and I think I pulled it off.

4. "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to aim the bouquet in your direction."

Implication: You actually want to get married, right? I mean, you get to have an engagement party.

5. "Are you pair still living in sin?"

Implication: That’s a grand set-up, you have there, lad.

6. "Well, did you ever think you’d see the day!"

Implication: Your man used to cheat on her every weekend. I know it, you know it, the whole bloody town knows it, so what's all this about?

7. "Nice spread, all the same."

Implication: That pair wouldn’t spend Christmas normally, but they went all-out for this bash in fairness.

8. "Good turn-out. There’s your man."

Implication: I’d never have put this pair down as Mr. and Mrs. Popularity.

9. "The wedding will have a lot to live up to after this bash."

Implication: This is a tacky, over-the-top affair and I’m only here because it’s my son's party and my wife made me.

10. "It’ll be you two next."

Implication: It'll be you two next.
