Parental Permission: Modern or Traditional?

Traditional on this one. FH asked my dad & my sister & brother in law knew about it. My mom had no clue, because she can't keep a secret.

Traditional, He asked my parents while I was at work, and waited to pop the question until he talked to my brother who at the time was in the military.

He didn’t ask permission. I told him that I don’t see a point in asking for their permission since we’re both adults 🤣

Traditional with a modern twist. He talked to my dad about his intentions, but knew it was important to me that he didn't ask "permission." In the same way, my dad didn't give his permission or blessing, but just talked about the kind of marriage he hoped for me and prayed that God would bless our marriage.

Traditional. He asked my dad even though my dad already had made it very clear several times that he was 100% supportive of it way beforehand. It was something we had been talking about for a long time. It was never a matter of if it was gonna happen, it was always a matter of when. Even though he told us both multiple times that he approved, my fiancé still wanted to ask anyways just out of respect.

My fi asked my dad for permission, I was really grateful because my dad and I are super close.

Modern, no permission. We have been together for 8 years and have lived together for 4, so I suppose everyone figured it was past the point of permission lol

Modern. I'm an adult and have been making my own decisions independent of my parents for years. This one is no different.

It was really important to my dad so I asked him to ask. My fiance's a bit shy and my dad rather intimidating, so I did a bit of coaching on what to do/say. Not sure if that counts as traditional or modern?

Moderm. My mom wanted my FH to ask my dad but I had already talked to my dad about our engagement and he was grwatful we were finally getting married. So out of respect of my mom's wishes we asked my dad together. He was still cool with it. My mom couldn't keep a secret anyways.

He didn’t ask permission. So, modern.

Traditional! He sat down with both of my parents almost three months before he proposed! It killed my mom that she knew and couldn't tell me haha!

FH asked both of my parents while I was out of town. He said my Dad's response was "Please...for the love of God, ask her already." haha!

I would have been irate if my husband asked my family permission. I am not property, I don't need their thoughts/opinions/feelings on my marriage. Added, I am not close to my family and cut all of them out of my life around the time my husband and I started dating.

He did however ask my dogs permission, and that was darn cute.

Traditional-ish. He didn’t really ask but he did let my mom know his intentions to propose after he picked out the ring. She was over the moon about it, like we both knew she would be.

Traditional. Not sure whether he asked or just told my dad when it was happening. But neither of them like to keep secrets so they both told everyone they know weeks before, yet I still had no idea lol

He did get my dad’s blessing because we both knew it’d make him happy but it wouldn’t have changed anything either way.

Modern: He didn’t ask my parents but he did ask our baby if he wanted daddy to marry mommy.

My FH asked my dad for his blessing. It was important to my dad for my FH to ask him. I think it is it a nice tradition.

Traditional! He asked for my mom's bless and my dad's blessing before proposing. He certainly wasn't asking for their permission, but he did want their blessing.
