I hate to be such a downer to Greek traditions but if you are going to get engaged anyway, why even take the lavalier step and not just move on to the engagement ring? I understand that a lavalier can be a big deal as an undergraduate but I really don't think that it means anything in a post-graduate/alumnae world. Letters and friends are important but when considering marriage, it should be between you and your fiancé, not your friends and organizations.
For this same reason, I'd go ahead and give your ex his letters back. Just like his lavalier symbolized his commitment to you, returning his letters will symbolize the end of that realtionship between two people. He lavaliering you was something between the two of you, not between you and his fraternity. Your status as a "sweetheart" should not be impacted because your ex ended his personal relationship by cheating.
