I often use the "you all know each other method." This has ranged from "you are young nobles in a great city but your families are on the losing side of a faction struggle, so your resources are limited or, in one case, you are out of favor with your family for taking the money that was supposed to be for your suit of fitted plate, your arming sword and your blooded war-horse stallion and using it for magic lessons." to "You are a Hobbit street-gang in the mean streets of Iron Town."
Then there was the time when a player-character Elf inherited magically enhanced instruments and sought other young musicians to start the first Elven Fusion rock band. It turned out they needed roadies and security also.
I recently used "you are all traveling to a wedding and your paths meet at a crossroads a couple of days from your destination." Some of them knew one another and some had already been traveling together.
