 👆 note is for family trips.

If it's a group trip among friends, bringing girlfriends/boyfriends is mostly okay i -- if it's not just one person bringing their girlfriend/boyfriend (so that they too can have some company)

 Certainly in Japan, introducing a boyfriend/girlfriend to family can be a special event.
For example, a pre-marriage meeting.

 Same in India too...🫂
Before marriage generally

*Dropping hints about boyfriend/girlfriend (this needs to be timed properly)
*Proposal meeting with parents
*Ring exchange/Engagement ceremony 
*Pre-wedding religious ceremony (Puja) depending on community
Then
*Wedding ceremony & reception 
*Post wedding home-coming ceremony 

It's a long process 😝

Puja and post wedding home-coming ceremonies are very interesting because we don't have this culture in Japan!
But other than that, the Japanese marriage process is very similar.
