Note
Only the noun can take this -s. Intended is also the past tense and past participle of intend, and an adjective meaning "planned", but neither of those has a plural, so intendeds always means people engaged to be married. Because the singular covers both fiancé and fiancée, the plural can name a mixed group without choosing between fiancés and fiancées.
