The Groom Going Out with His Fiancée

Question
What is the ruling on a couple who are engaged and have contracted marriage going out alone without a companion?
Answer

I say, and with Allah's guidance: They are considered spouses in Sharia after the contract, so seclusion between them is permissible. However, it is preferable to avoid it as much as possible, except for necessity or urgent need due to the corruption of the times and the prevalence of divorce. And Allah knows best.
