1. Set a meeting time
Parents should meet for the first time when both families are free, ideally with all family members present. The elders on both sides will not have too many topics at the beginning, more people are present, and the occasion will not be too cold, of course, which also needs to rely on the new people to adjust the atmosphere inside.
2. Determine the meeting place
The best place for parents to meet for the first time is at home. As the two families who are about to become in-laws, the home environment is easier to create a relaxed atmosphere, more relaxed, more conducive to establishing feelings.
If for various reasons, the home is not convenient, you can choose to meet in the restaurant. However, it must be an independent private room, and must not be chosen to sit in the hall, otherwise it will be too casual, and it will make the woman's family feel unvalued. In addition, it is very important to choose which restaurant, the man should let the woman choose, which is to respect the woman. If the woman doesn't ask, the man gets to pick.
The man should usually pay for the meeting outside, and the overall environment and cuisine of the restaurant should also be required. The restaurant chosen should be relatively quiet, the dishes are exquisite, and the taste of the dishes should first be dominated by the woman. A boyfriend should ask his girlfriend in advance what his family is forbidden to eat and be polite.
Third, the choice of gifts
Gift-giving has been a tradition since ancient times, not to mention such an important family gathering for both sides. Buy according to the preferences of the other person's family, or you can ask the other person what they need to choose the purchase.
Minimum gift: Good tea or coffee. Some parents with petty bourgeoisie complex, like to drink coffee, tea, then choose some high-quality tea or coffee gifts, is the most appropriate.
Best value gift: Supermarket convenience card. For fear that the other party does not like the gift they send, you can attach a supermarket convenience card, which is affordable and not as direct as money.
Most safe gifts: health care products and fruit. If you do not know the preferences of the other parents, sending health care products and fruits is the least likely to make mistakes.
