YOUR TOTAL:

If fewer than 8 of your responses were correct, you might want to do a little research on wedding etiquette. If you scored 9 or better, you probably have a good grip on the rules and customs of ceremonies, receptions, and nuptials in general.

For extra credit, did you notice that there is sometimes more than one right answer? Though etiquette rules are not designed to make logical sense, there is always one basic consideration that is more important than simple right or wrong: consideration for the feelings and comfort of others.
