Together from the start..

And, while this might be too obvious, i may as well throw it out there. Theres nothing stopping one or both of you from doing the free trial to see how the game feels. Trial characters are limited somewhat in game, so it would be hard to do some things together, but if you like what you try you can upgrade to the actual game and those restrictions all go away.

One of the trial restrictions is that you cannot invite anyone to form a party with you (though you can join one if somebody else does the inviting). That one might be more awkward for a couple trying to play together than it is for someone who's satisfied with soloing through the early part of the game. Still an option, of course, but it could become a frustrating one fairly quickly.
