[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is polite to announce intentions to marry but it is the couple’s decision so permission should not be needed. Respectful Good communication helps future relations. [/quote] 100%[/quote] I agree with this. My DH took both of my parents out to lunch to tell them he was going to propose and ask for their blessing. From my mom's perspective, it was a 'passing of the torch' gesture for them to give their blessing as their last parenting act, since after DH and I married he would be my primary family. I don't see anything offensive or wrong with that approach. We have also never had any in-law issues during out marriage (18 years). I get along with his family and he gets along with mine just fine. [/quote] Did you ask for his parents blessing too? [/quote]
