Crossword Genius

Booked - for a forthcoming wedding (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

engaged

This clue is a double definition.

'booked' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'for a forthcoming wedding' is the second definition.
(as in being engaged to be married)

(Other definitions for engaged that I've seen before include "Spoken for" , "Employed - to be married? (7)" , "Busy; employed" , "Held" , "Fully committed - to get married?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
