  • Welcome future daughter in law .Ide like to invite you into our family .Or summat like that
  • From the heart. Nothing better.
  • Is there a problem? Do you know her already? Is this a formality or are you feeling welcoming? If you are glad she is joining your family, you can hardly fail by sincerely sharing how happy you are and that you look forward to knowing her better. Feel free to gush, but sincerely. Don't mention grandchildren, religion, previous spouses or money. If you know her family and like them you can include them in the welcome but otherwise just address her. Have someone else read the letter before you send it to be sure you are not putting in writing some never-to-be-forgotten-for-a-lifetime faux pas, expecially if you have mixed feelings about the marriage.
  • Starting off with something like "So you think you're good enough for my boy do you?", or "So, you're family wealthy" would be bad ways to get started. My Mom sent my wife a letter like that before we got married. Quite simple, and something to the effect of "Though I've only met you once, I could see in my son's eyes how much he loves you. I could also see your love for my son by every look you give him, and ever word you say about him. I look forward to gaining a new daughter and watching your love for each other grow, as well as knowing that our family has grown in love." (I had to dig it out)
  • You search your heart,because you are inviting her from your heart,tell her simply that she is welcome in your house and welcome in the family,you are someone that she can always come to
