My mom met FI's parents after we had been dating for about 2 /2 years. My dad met them after we got engaged.
our parents met before we got engaged, when we bought our first house, we figured they'd run into each other at some point. My parents didn't want to meet his until we were engaged before that.
The moms met at my shower. Its pretty funny because we all live in the same town!
If they hadnt met at the shower they would meet on the plane ride to the Bahamas, they both booked seperately and didnt know what days the other set was going (its different days than FH and I)
Our parents met before we got engaged, when we moved in together! They both helped us move.
About 2 months after we were engaged, we all went out to dinner and I gave our mothers a framed engagement picture of us. I also had some cake samples for us to taste. My parents live out of town that's why it took so long for them to meet.
They won't meet until just before the wedding . . . We tried to work it out so that they met earlier (we have been together for 4 years!), but with 5,000 miles separating our families, it proved to be too difficult to arrange.
They met before we got engaged. Although they live 11 hours apart form each other, my parent's came down for my college graduation (30 minutes from DH's parents) so they planned to get together for a whole afternoon then.
A couple months after we got engaged. Our families only live about 2 hours apart, but it took a while to find a date that worked for everyone. The six of us went out for lunch.
Our moms met at my fiance's baseball games, maybe a month and a half after we started dating (we started dating during our last semester in high school). All four parents finally met while taking pictures for my prom I believe, about three and a half months after we started dating.
Our parents aren't going to meet as far as I'm concerned. My parents aren't in the picture, one I have met a few times and the other was abusive so I don't have contact with them.
Ours met after we moved in together, before we got engaged. We wanted to make sure they met before we moved away together (both our families live outside of NYC and we moved to the Bay Area).
They met I think a year into our relationship? I can't remember. But our moms love each other.. whenever they're together they never stop talking lol.
Our families live in the same area, and we live on the opposite side of the country. After we got engaged, our parents got in touch with each other and arranged to go out to dinner together. I was really surprised that they did it without me or my husband there, but it worked out very well. They hit it off and had a great time, and since then we've gotten together many times. Everyone likes each other, hooray.
Our parents won't meet until the week of our wedding. My family lives in the Northeast and FI's family lives in the Southwest. It will be very entertaining to see our two families meet. My parents don't speak English (we're immigrants from Portugal) and FI's parents only speak English. :)
We live in New Mexico, his parents live in Rockport, TX and mine live in Oklahoma City. They'll meet at the rehearsal dinner, but I don't expect they'll like each other all that much. It's okay though....they won't have to see each other again (we aren't having kids)
Mine met his mom and her boyfriend right after we got engaged, and they met his dad and his wife at the wedding.
his parents met my dad and stepmom right after we got engaged. we took the families to brunch together.
his parents wont get to meet my mom and step dad until the wednesday before the wedding, as they live in ohio and the rest of us live in texas. it's kind of strange to me that his parents haven't met my mom, but there's nothing we can do about it at this point :)
Both of our families came to Seattle a month after we became engaged. HIs parents live in Nor Cal and my parents live in So Cal, since meeting the 1st time they have enjoyed each others company 3 times (his parents enjoy mini getaways in Palm Springs - not too far from my parents...)
Our parents met this Easter, so about 6 or 7 months after we got engaged. It wasn't that they didn't want to meet, we just live an hour apart with crazy busy schedules... So it was just hard to get everyone together. Our first try we had to cancel due to a heavy Minnesota storm.
They met a few months into our relationship. My family has a christmas party every year and FI's parents and brother/SIL always attend. Same for FI's families parties, my parents are always on the guest list. We were engaged after 5 years of dating. Both moms have recently discovered facebook so they are bff's on there :-).
Hey, I'm new, forgive me for jumping right in!
Our parents met before we were engaged, but just barely. They met fathers day this year after we'd been dating almost 4 years!
My SO and I live in Indiana, my parents live in St. Louis and his parents live in Arizona, so they'll probably all meet for the first time at an engagement dinner we have to celebrate.
My parents met FI's dad/step-mom a few months after we got engaged. My parents will meet FI's mom at my shower, and will meet his step dad the day before our wedding. It is pretty complicated because none of us live in the same place, everyone is between 2-14 hrs drive.
After we got engaged.. Actually they are all meeting for the 1st time, September 11th... We are having a BBQ and sorta an engagement party... My Mom will be flying in to meet FI and his family.
Sadly, ours still haven't met! My parents live out here near us but his parents live on the opposite side of the country. His parents haven't been out to visit us yet, so they have never had the chance to meet my parents. They won't meet until the week of the wedding.
Not exactly sure when they will meet. My Mom lives in San Diego and Fi's parents are in Sweden (where we now reside). There were talks about visiting each other early on, but my Mom hasn't really put in any effort into wanting to meet them, although she seems to want to visit Sweden, but for vacation. It'll eventually happen, but we'll be married by then.
They met after we were engaged. At seperate times. First FFIL my mom when we were moving to GB. Then FMIL met mom when she visited us alone in GB. They have yet to meet my father and step-mother. I'm avoiding that like the plague (think RD).
They haven't met yet. It looks like it will be the day before the wedding that they will meet. I thought that his sister would meet my mom at my bridal shower in a few weeks, but she is now not able to attend. Both sets of parents live several hours away from us in opposite directions.
Because both of our parents live or have lived overseas for so long (in diff. countries) they never got to meet! Our mom's finally met at my shower a few weeks ago. My mom was in town for 2 weeks, and his mom drove up from VA to go. It was great. Other than that, they'll all be meeting at the wedding! (Or in the days leading up to it.)
If all goes well, our parents will meet the first week of November- this is about 2 years after we started dating and a year after we got engaged. Wedding is in June 2011.
Our parents met about a week after we got engaged and that is only because they were coming from Sweden to vacation and so we all got to meet up and have an impromtu engagement party.
Our parents were friends from WAY back (like, college years) so luckily we didn't have to deal with the awkward first-time-the-families-come-together dinner!

My mom met the boy's parents after we'd been dating a year or so. His parents came to town to visit and we all went to dinner.
