Wishing you all a very Happy Easter! 🌸🥂

Easter is just a few days away. If you plan to host, keep these tips in mind!

1. Spring flowers such as tulips, ranunculus, and lilies are perfect for an Easter table. Pictured are Icelandic poppies, some of my favorite spring flowers, from my dear @fairbanksflorist. Incorporating a few seasonal details such as floral prints and Easter eggs (or in my case birds nests!) can bring a little Easter magic to your table.

2. As always, ask your guests ahead of time about allergies and dietary requirements so you may plan your menu accordingly.

3. Serve a variety of beverages, including non-alcoholic options for those who cannot or choose not to drink.

4. If children are attending, include them in your planning. Consider activities such as crafts or coloring pages, small Easter baskets, or even designated candy. This will help keep them occupied and feel included. Again, be mindful of children’s allergies such as peanuts when purchasing Easter candy.

#BusinessEtiquette tip: take care with the “reply all” function.

We all have a lot of emails to get through and sometimes we reply quickly, but taking a moment to consider whether a person needs to be cc’d is a courteous way to keep another person’s inbox clear.

Pet etiquette, or as I am affectionately calling it: “Petiquette” (!), is not a topic I see discussed very often. As a dog lover, rescue advocate, and etiquette advisor, I thought it high time I shared my top petiquette tips!

1. Always use leashes in public spaces. This is something of a hot topic for some. While your dog may be friendly and well-behaved, other dogs (whether leashed or not) may not be. Leash laws exist to protect all members of the public: human, canine or otherwise!

2. Clean up after your pet. This should go without saying and truly requires no further explanation.

3. Never lie about service animals. It is unfortunate that this is a topic of discussion but it is a trend that must be addressed. Service dogs are highly trained and specialized animals who provide a crucial service to those who need them. When people with untrained dogs or dogs who do not serve a medical support purpose pretend their dogs are service animals, it abuses and denigrates a system designed to support those who need it. Lying about a service animal is categorically inappropriate.

4. Do not allow pets to approach people or dogs without permission. Not everyone is a dog lover (hard to believe, I know! *wink). Some people are not comfortable around animals and similarly, many dogs are unfriendly towards other animals. Always ask permission before allowing pets to meet. A simple, “Can they say hello?,” should suffice.

I expand on these tips and many more in my latest blog so be sure to tap the link below to read on!

As many companies prepare to reopen their offices and return to in-person work, I thought it a good time to share some helpful workplace etiquette reminders to ease the transition.

The smell of a hot meal can quickly permeate a shared space. Meals should be chosen with care, especially when using a common kitchen or microwave. Food with pungent or strong scents (hello fish!) should be avoided wherever possible out of courtesy to your colleagues.

Following on regarding scents in shared spaces, take care with your cologne or perfume application when at the office. While you may love your signature scent, many people are sensitive to different aromas. Try not to overdo it when applying.

Finally, clean up after yourself in common areas such as the kitchen, bathrooms, and meeting spaces. Wipe the counter, wash your dishes, and take care to remove any food items from the fridge before leaving for the day.

Stay tuned for Part Two! In the meantime, what are your workplace pet peeves?

Light spring soups and refreshing gazpachos are firmly in season! When spooning your soup, remember this etiquette phrase, “Like ships that go out to sea, I spoon my soup away from me.”

This rule is particularly beneficial as it gives a little extra transit time for any drips to fall into the bowl rather than on your lap or your clothes.

A few key napkin etiquette tips in one quick guide!

1. Place your napkin in your lap upon being seated.

2. Fold your napkin in half with the loose ends facing the table and the fold closest to you. Pro Tip: flip your napkin inside out to use it, then fold it back and replace. This way, your napkin will always look tidy!

3. Use your napkin to dab or blot your mouth, rather than wipe.

4. When leaving the table temporarily, place your napkin on your chair. When you have finished your meal, place it loosely to the left of your plate.

Haley and Alec’s wedding was the very definition of a chic downtown affair. An abundance of white blooms, clean modern touches, and tall arrangements of magnolia branches utterly transformed the space into a reception fitting of the lovely couple.

When dining, it is important to wait until everyone at the table has been served before starting your meal.

However, if you are the one without food you should politely indicate that your companions begin without you. You do not want anyone’s food to go cold while waiting.

Happy Sunday my darlings and welcome to Wedding Guest Etiquette, Part Three! I suppose it is no surprise that one of the etiquette topics I can talk about all day long is wedding-related! *wink

1. Be punctual and arrive to the ceremony prior to the start time. You do not (I repeat, *do not*) want to interrupt one of the most important moments of the couple’s life by being late. Make sure to leave plenty of time for unforeseen events and plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before the ceremony start time.

2. Respect the seating chart and the seat chosen for you. Couples agonize over their seating plan and each seat is chosen with care. Are you a gregarious person with shy seat mates? You were likely chosen so that you can help spark conversation. It is important to respect the choice of the couple and sit in the seat chosen for you. Be friendly and make sure to talk to everyone around you.

3. Limit phone use as much as possible. In Part One we talk about leaving photography to the professionals, especially during key moments. Indeed, there is nothing worse than a cell phone interrupting a beautiful shot. However, it is important to note that cell phone use should be limited altogether. Phone calls, texting, or worse, scrolling(!), should all wait until the next day unless there is an emergency.

4. Have fun but try not to over-imbibe. Oh my, this one is tricky but so important. Weddings are such lively events, often with a lot of alcohol involved. Your hosts undoubtedly want you to have a great time and let loose on the dance floor. However, it is important to temper your alcohol intake throughout the event. No one wants to be the guest who is too drunk and spoiling the fun for others.

I love nothing more than to take a step back after a long, but extremely gratifying design process and set, and look at the space living, breathing and celebrating, filled with family, friends and guests of honor.
