Tips & Warnings

• Involving your girlfriend's family is a great way of building a relationship with them: keep in mind, when she says "yes," they'll be your family too.
• You might be taking a little bit of a risk enlisting your girlfriend's sister in helping you to propose if the two of them do not keep secrets from one another.
