Tip of the Day: So, should you call your new mother-in-law Mom and your new father-in-law Dad at the wedding? They are, after all, official family now. Etiquette warnings say to wait on that, actually. You don’t want to shock anyone, or catch them off-guard, by walking up to them and calling them these titles.
If your in-laws have a discomfort with that, you don’t want to experience the humiliation of being told to call them what you’ve always called them, and you don’t want your new hubby embarrassed that you just decided on your own to call his parents Mom and Dad. You may be super-close with them, or hoping to be, but wait for a later time — like at a post-honeymoon dinner at your place — when you are invited to call them Mom and Dad.
