welcomingly
In greeting fashion
In a manner that conveys warmth and openness to someone's arrival or presence.
A host might smile welcomingly at guests, or a dog might wag its tail welcomingly when its owner returns.
The word suggests active friendliness rather than mere tolerance: She gestured welcomingly toward the empty chair.
