The Fiancée's Maintenance on the Suitor

Question
Is the suitor obligated to provide maintenance for his fiancée after the marriage contract before the wedding?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: The suitor must provide the customary expenses for the fiancée in terms of clothing and food as soon as the marriage contract is made, if the delay in the wedding is due to him and not her. And God knows best.
