How To Attend A Regency Era Dinner Party

If the Regency Era is known for anything, it is usually the decadent lifestyle that members of the gentry got to experience. During this time, class divides were intense; and even among the wealthy there was still a strict social hierarchy that depended on your family and title. The London season in particular, gave rich families the opportunity to show off their vast amounts of wealth. And what better way to distinguish yourself from the poor than to create intricate rituals surrounding manners that everyone had to follow? Perhaps no event showed this off more than the dinner party.

The Regency era of British history is commonly described as the years between c. 1795 and 1837, although the official regency for which it is named only spanned the years 1811 to 1820.
