Do you know Etiquette (quiz)

I got 11 out of 15 but I disagree with a few.

I really do think the couple should write thank you cards together as they have received JOINT PRESENTS. That said, h2b never writes Thank Yous so it'll be me doing it anyway.

I also think it's more polite to respond to a Wedding Invitation as soon as you receive it. It's nice to show you're excited about going to someone's Wedding.

I got 9 out of 15. Hmm not very up on the etiquette. I agree with Stephisour RE the Thank You and responding to the invite. Also think the couple should book their honeymoon together.

I do agree with you both, but we have to remember that these are the official etiquette guidlelines that have been in place for years and years and what would happen at a royal wedding, not just it being the polite thing to do which is what we would do ourselves.

How many people would be shocked that the males at the table stood when they left or arrived. Ive done it myself in the correct setting as its the thing to do. I wouldn't in Fankie and bennys* though

*Other fast food chains available

Considering I eloped and etiquette went out f the window I did pretty well and scored 13. It's a bit outdated for today and agree that both should write thank you cards (although he didn't I did) and that honeymoons should be decided together unless it's a joint decision that it's to be a surprise. I think also engagements are as long as you wish them to be or need them to be based on today's wedding costs.

Being older I suppose I remember how weddings used to be. That said I don't think doing things our own way to suit us better in a modern day and age show any less respect to our families and friends than traditions would have. ?

I only got 6/15. I'm not surprised.

Who comes up with this stuff though?

its obviosly terribly rude to not sit couples together weather 'ettiquette' says so or not

and where as its wise to have a hen/stag weeks or months beforehad thats not the 'tradition' of it

and what the couple chooses to wear is not ettiquette/manners based its just their choice

also why mix parents, so awkward and rude to the parents

I scored 11 out of 15. Which is surprising considering we are not following any of these. Although separating parents on top table might solve my dilemma of where to sit divorced parents. Lol.

I got 8 out of 15. i wonder if the upper classes still stick to this etiquette...

I got 11... but some of the ones I got right I don't agree with!

I do think that some of this is very outdated now, but tradition is tradition I suppose!!

I only got six out of 15! Oops. I don't agree with a lot of them. I won't be having the traditional top table set up. I also don't think it would go down well if I separated our friends from their other halves! I think it is all very old fashioned!

I got 14 put of 15.

However, I'm an aspiring comical snob, love Debretts and love William Hanson who does a little stint on Steve Wright on Radio 2 sometimes!

My wedding is nowhere near Debretts etiquette, although I DID refer to the Debretts guide for the invitations!

Love a bit of posh stuff sometimes! ???

I agree, and OH will help write them, at least he'll help me decide what to write but his handwriting is so bad i'll be doing the actual writing.

I really disagree with guests should RSVP by 2 months before the wedding, if my guests leave it that late they'll not be coming as we need to tell the venue numbers 6 weeks before and I won't to be able to invite evening guests to the day if people cannot make it.

Quite surprised at getting 12/15. I agree with PP about the cards, they should definitely be from both of you, but like the Christmas cards I write them all and he signs them.

The RSVP's, I got this wrong but I'm biased as our deadline was 2 months before but we didn't have additional evening guests, if the couple states a deadline then they should be received by the deadline.

What confuses me is the married people can't sit next to each other, is that a way to get guests talking to new people? That would make sense but I'd hate that, I am happy enough to sit next to my husband and ignore him, what happens if you are sat next to someone weird or you're given a menu choice and you pick different things to swap and share the food.

However some of the comments are mildly amusing.
