These aren't needed for the I-129F.

An Affidavit of Support is commonly meant to refer to an I-134 or I-864 to address the public charge concern. I don't think that's what you meant here...just wanted to point out the terminology as you'll be seeing it more often later in the K-1 and AOS processes. And to be clear, neither the I-134 nor I-864 is needed with the I-129F filing.

 

Affidavits carry very little to no weight in terms of relationship evidence. Depending on the embassy/consulate involved, frontloading other relationship evidence may be suggested.

Cards, conversations, and phone calls aren't evidence of meeting in person within the past 2 years. They can be sent as part of frontloading relationship evidence, but do nothing towards the 2 year meeting requirement (anybody can say they met, but USCIS is looking for evidence).

The tickets and passport stamps are good to include. I would also suggest receipts if you have them.

Photos are secondary evidence...perfectly fine to include, but putting a verifiable time + place is difficult on their own.

How we met letter by the beneficiary

If the answer doesn't fit on the I-129F, a short statement about how you met is fine to include. Who writes it doesn't matter. They just want to know if you met through an IMB or not...and if via a dating website, they will often ask for evidence that the website/service is not an IMB (ToS, privacy policy, etc.).

 

Also, I would include a cover letter detailing what is in the packet.
