• Wear Traditional Clothes

Wondering what to wear? Surprise your mother-in-law by wearing one of your best traditional Indian outfits.

It doesn't matter what you wear before getting married, but festivals are the time for traditional wear, so make sure you dress up well.

Also, if the function is grand, make sure you dress accordingly and not arrive wearing a very simple outfit. This might make your in-laws feels less important and not worth dressing up for.

• Arrive Before Time

All the guests are asked to come at a specific time. However, this doesn't imply on you. You are no longer a guest and will be a part of the family soon, so make sure you arrive earlier.

Spend time with your in-laws before the party begins. Later, you might get busy attending guests and won't even get enough time to talk.

• Memorise the Guest List

Since you have arrived before time, you too will have to greet the guests along with your in-laws.

In a casual conversation, ask your fiancé or anyone from the family who all are expected to come. You can even sharpen your memory by memorising names of relatives, which will help you greet them and earn brownie points with them.

• Be a Wardrobe Assistant

When you have a party at home, it is difficult to concentrate on what to wear. Help your sister/mother-in-law decide what to wear.

Throw in a few compliments and you have a perfect recipe to successful relationship with your in-laws.

After all, you never know, your mother-in-law might just gift you a exquisite piece from her jewellery box for being such a darling.

• Helping Hand in the Kitchen

Even though you are the best chef in the world, being a helping hand in the kitchen will send you straight into their good books.

You can start by doing little things like tossing the salad. You can also show your creative side by arranging the dinner table.

But if you actually cook something, nothing like it!
