Table Talk: Cell Phone Etiquette
When you see examples of a place setting, there is no spot for a phone. This is a tough one, because people’s jobs are tied to their phones, or you have a babysitter that might need to call you and the list can go on and on! It’s best to take a cue from your hosts. If they have their phone on the table, then if you are so inclined you can follow suit. Etiquette tells us to follow these guidelines: when you need to answer the phone leave the table for a conversation and speak softly. Try to keep conversations to a minimum and question whether you really need to answer the call?Just a reminder that when you are texting, you aren’t socializing with your friends.

One movement that is starting to take over is the disappearance of cell phones at the table. In restaurants you will see all the cell phones stacked in the middle of the table and the first person that picks up their phone pays the bill.

A phone box is a new addition to dinner parties, where everyone throws their phone into a box and agree not to use them for an allotted amount of time.

Once again take your cue from your host and hostess and always remember to be respectful in your phone use. Keep your ringers at a low level and if you must take a call, take the conversation to another room.

Remember to inquire about our phone box rentals that match the theme you are renting. Call 403-453-6605 to book your Christmas tablescapes before they are all booked!

Thursday Table Tips! Color Vision!

Surprise can take a tablescape from great to spectacular! One way to create that surprise is to change your vision for your colors and let it dazzle.

We just finished celebrating Thanksgiving, but what if you changed the pumpkin to green? It creates an impact and people remember it. Take the usual and make it unusual!

Upcoming Events for December!

Where has this year gone? Going into a busy season it is always good to plan, prepare and party! Early December starts with Apple Pie Day. Take a breath and enjoy a scrumptious piece of apple pie while you start your holiday planning.

Prepare for Christmas and put those plans into action. The more you can get done in advance sets up the opportunity to party with family and friends with the utmost of ease.

Then we can make merry on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, and bring in 2020 with the help of Dinner Party Theme Rentals to simplify your hosting while making it an exceptional beginning of the year!
