Long Engagements

I was just thinking, couples nowadays have very long engagements. They book their wedding suppliers years ahead to assure that the schedule is still free for them.

Aside from wondering where people these days get all the money to hire their expensive suppliers, another thing that I find amazing is the resolve of these couples to stay engaged for a long time. It's good that they don't change their minds about their partners when they know that their wedding is still in, say,  3 years. Do they stick it out with each other because they are madly in love or because of the commitment (not to mention the deposits paid to wedding vendors)? In that case, it's like being married to their partners already because of the obligation that the long engagement entails. Is that pressure or what?

Does a long engagement make a relationship better? Is the long wait always worth it?
