Episode 472 - No Receiving Line - Awesome Etiquette

What this episode covers

Welcome to Awesome Etiquette, where we explore modern etiquette through the lens of consideration, respect and honesty. On today’s show, we take your questions on people who ask you to send their thanks along to someone else, not having a receiving line at the wedding, whether or not to invite a friend who is bothering the bride to a wedding, and how to handle a charity birthday present request for a kids’ birthday. For Awesome Etiquette community members our question of the week is about a very generous, maybe too generous, host. Plus your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute, and a historical postscript on spitting from Margaret Visser’s The Rituals Of Dinner. Learn more about your ad choices.
