Women News - As a royal event, William and Kate wedding filled with rules of protocol. At a banquet for example, what guests need to know before sitting at their wedding reception later?

BBC report, the dish will be served buffet reception, so do not worry about setting up a place. But there will be a dinner and it was people sitting and dancing. So it's good to know about table manner.

Tableware Dilemma

Indeed this is quite simple. Begin to use the equipment from the outside while eating. Soup’s spoon will always be located right outside if the soup is the first course. Spoon soup will be on second position from the right if the soup deserved second. Spoons and forks for dessert will always be located in front of the main plate with a fork facing right and spoon on it facing left.

Drink Equipment

Glasses are also placed in the order they are used. So, for example, water, champagne, white wine, red wine, dessert wine. A napkin may be placed on the plate or to the left fork.

How to eat

Some foods have their own etiquette. Bread rolls: do not cut with a knife, break it with your fingers. Soup: (when scooped) point the spoon away from you; take a gulp, do not sip (which can cause noise.) Asparagus: eaten by using your fingers, start with the head. Oysters: using the oyster fork to remove the oyster from its shell. Hold the shell between your thumb and index finger and middle finger, place it on the lower lip and remove the oysters and juice from the shell. Do not swallow it a whole. Chew slowly and enjoy.
