The answer

The suitor is considered a stranger until the legitimate marriage contract is concluded. However, it is permissible for him to see his fiancée to make a decision, and she may adorn herself for him in elegant and colorful attire. This legitimate viewing should be limited to a single instance, and frequent visits, meetings, and dining with him should be avoided. If the completion of the marriage is delayed, the legitimate contract must be concluded to avoid what is forbidden.
