Modes and Manners: Dining Etiquette Guidelines

Dinner is served announces the meal. Reading while dining alone is acceptable in some cases. When mother daughter and friend dine, the hostess, the mother, is served first. A man should say he hopes to see you again soon rather than promising contact. Gelatine on lettuce is eaten with a salad fork, not a spoon. A bride should avoid a bouquet with a tailored outfit and may wear a corsage instead.
