What is Etiquette. âManners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. Etiquette Definition. Etiquette is a code of behaviour that delineates expectations for social behavior according to contemporary conventional norms within a society, social class, or group.
Traditional etiquette is to hand out the favors at the end of the shower, as the guests are leaving, to thank them for coming. Small, inexpensive items are fine as it is just a gesture of goodwill, and people come to the shower to wish the expectant mother and baby well rather than to receive a gift themselves.
