What process are you talking about? With the exception of some first generation Americans of Indian descent*, I don't know anyone whose parents were involved in the engagment. Nor do I know many people who didn't first live together before they got married or whose parents paid for the bulk of the wedding.
Are you just talking about an egagement ring?
*and I'm actually pretty sure a dowry was involved in those marriages.
