Is it appropriate to use the term lunch date or coffee date?

My wife and i had a huge fight over this question. In my business I work with a lot of referral partners. Most of them are women so a large part of my business is to build a business relationship.

Is it wrong to use the term of business date or lunch date?

Why are you using the word "date" when it's for business? You never heard the word "meeting" before?

@DreamingOfSummer yes, it would be more appropriate to use meeting.. and it seems like everyone agrees with that. I do as well but it should not cause a huge fight because i used the wrong word.
