Dining at the White House

Printer-friendly versionSend by email

Someone once wrote and asked Emily Post, the etiquette expert of another generation, “What is the correct procedure when one is invited to the White House but has a previous engagement?”

Replied Post, “An invitation to dine at the White House is a command, and it automatically cancels any other engagement.”
