DEAR MISS MANNERS: Our daughter and our future son-in-law selected three meal options for their wedding: one beef, one chicken and one vegetarian pasta. They would certainly ask the caterer to make special accommodations if someone alerted them to a food allergy, but it seems rude for guests to make special requests for other reasons.
My dad learned of the meal options through a conversation this week. He texted me the next day, saying that he and his girlfriend “would like to enjoy the meal at the wedding” and therefore want me to request fish for them -- either salmon or whitefish.
