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 a colorful wedding dress code, birthday parties at places that charge for extra guests, tipping for an at-home service rather than one at a salon, and teaching consent early. For Awesome Etiquette Community members our question is about attending a birthday party when you can’t afford a gift. Plus your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute and a postscript continuing a historical review of etiquette from the Cost of Bad Behavior.
