Upcoming Events
2026 Princess Etiquette Tea — Saint Paul Hotel
Join us for a magical morning where princesses learn how to behave like royalty. Attendees are encouraged to dress in their favorite princess attire — there will be a promenade and photo opportunity. While princesses sip tea and indulge in dainty delicacies, Julie Frantz of Everyday Etiquette will share how to act like a lady, what it takes to be a good friend, dine like royalty, and how to let your inner beauty shine out. Songs, stories, and crafts fill this whimsical morning. Perfect for ages 5–10. An adult must attend with each child and purchase a ticket. Please indicate any dietary restrictions or food allergies. Tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE.
Children’s Etiquette — Saint Paul Hotel
Give your child the gift of confidence, courtesy, and timeless manners at The Saint Paul Hotel’s 2026 Children’s Etiquette Class. Designed for ages 8–15, this engaging experience combines practical dining etiquette with valuable life skills. Attendees will learn table setting and dining etiquette (American and European styles, proper use of place settings, silverware, and napkins), conversation and social skills (how to speak with anyone, anywhere, meeting and greeting with the 6 S’s of making a great first impression), and everyday courtesy (why manners matter and the importance of common courtesy words in daily life). The experience includes a four-course meal to practice hands-on dining etiquette, expert instruction in a fun, interactive setting, and confidence-building lessons that last a lifetime. $75 per person. This popular class fills quickly — reserve your child’s spot today. SECURE YOUR SEAT BEFORE IT’S GONE.
