You can cover the table before your guests arrive, or when your guests get together and have time to get to know each other more closely. But in any case, do not force your guests to wait long. They can accept it, as if you have nothing prepared for their arrival. Meeting the guests in a hurry, do not forget in which room you now have a temporary warehouse of things that you tried to clean up for their arrival. You can close the room and tell your guests that you
do not remember where to put the key.
If the guests are visiting you for the first time, you must show them your apartment, so that they feel comfortable staying at home.
If your guests do not know each other, you should introduce them, but only after everyone is ready. Dating should take place in the living room, when everything is assembled. Hosts should invite everyone to the table and invite them to choose where to sit. Do not tell the guest his place, he should choose himself where he will be comfortable and comfortable.
We are often accustomed to offer guests slippers, it is unnecessary to do this, it is considered bad form and does not fit the rules of etiquette. If your guest wants to go to your house in slippers, he can take them with him.
If suddenly you did not want to drink today and decided to rest your liver, you do not need to tell your guests about your problems and why today you do not want to miss them with a glass. Just say that you do not drink today. Either think up that you still have to get behind the wheel. There are many reasons that you can think up for your guest while not offending them and not loading them with your problems.
You must remember that today you must give everyone due attention and not offend anyone. That this method left them only good impressions. Be polite and smile more often. After communicating with the guests with a smile, you have them to yourself.
If you have this day, when guests come to you, a bad mood, try to hide your feelings in every possible way. Your guests should not feel this because this can overshadow their rest. Always be interested in what else they need. Be polite and hospitable.
Never hint to your guests that it's time for them to leave. They can be very offended by this and will no longer come to visit you. At the same time they will tell others how you hinted at every possible withdrawal. Wait until the guests themselves want to leave your house or apartment.
Treat yourselves with respect to others and receive in return only warmth and respect.
