AboutAmanda Gamble Expertise I will answer any etiquette question you`d care to ask!
I will be happy to give friendly non-judgmental advice on any situation.
If your question is rude,incoherent or demands I confirm your "victim" story,
I reserve the right to refuse to answer. Life is too short.
Certain cultures and customs are not part of my personal
experience,but I will research to get the needed answer.
Experience I have been writing a daily etiquette advice column for 6 years.
I have taught as well as given lectures on the subject.
Question I am invited to my cousins wedding however my 6 year old daughters soccer final and award ceremony is the same day, would it be appropriate to miss the church ceremony and only attend the reception?
Answer Dear Shannon,
Explain the situation to your cousin so that there will be no room
for misunderstanding or hurt feelings. I am sure they will understand
and just want you to come help celebrate their special day in any
way you are able.
Best regards,
Amanda Gamble
