First meeting etiquette for both families
The first meeting between families sets the tone for everything after it. A little preparation goes a long way.
Who comes
Agree in advance who will attend from each side, so nobody is surprised.
Where
A family home or a quiet, public place. Somewhere both families feel at ease.
What to talk about
Let the parents lead the first conversation. The two of you will have time.
