[quote=Anonymous]To me, it seems respectful to meet with parents and notify them of your intention to ask for their daughter’s hand in marriage. Not permission-seeking but opportunity for bonding. Larlo: “as you know, I adore your daughter and I can’t imagine my life without her. I wanted to let you know that I am planning to ask her to marry me.” Parents: “oh that’s wonderful! we think you’re swell, Larlo—and the two of you certainly have our blessing and support.” It’s a gesture of mutual respect. And in some families, Marriage is a sacred covenant and the ceremony requires that the families pledge to support the union and do everything they can to help the couple keep their covenant. So it’s kind of important to lay that groundwork of support.[/quote]
