What exactly is Söz Kesmek?
When googling it, I discovered different names, some said “söz kesme” and “söz kesimi”
I’m curious what the Promise Ceremony of the cutting of the red ribbon connected to the two rings is officially called. Is “Söz Kesmek” the correct term when referring to that ceremony?
Thanks

It may be "sözlenmek" too.
Usually done if it is necessary to wait for the engagement.

Söz kesmek is the third (first is evlilik teklifi, second is kız isteme) and little ceremony what you did before marriage. Two families meet in the house of one of them. Just with close relatives like aunt, uncle, cousins etc. . Couple wear ribboned rings and chosen one makes a speach (mostly oldest male relative) and after the speech he cuts the ribbon and say good wishes. No dance, no crowd etc. It's like just an approval between families and an announcement.
