The proper etiquette for a place setting is very simple. Etiquette experts tell us that utensils should begin from the outside of your plate and work your way in. The following picture illustrates where each utensil should be placed, where the each glass should be set and the proper position to put the dinner napkin.
This is the format for a formal dinner setting from http://www.table-settings-with-pictures.com/:
A- Serviette (napkin)
B- Service plate
C- Soup bowl on plate
D- Bread and butter with butter knife
E- Water glass
F- White Wine glass
G- Red Wine glass
H- Fish fork
I- Dinner fork
J- Salad fork
K-Service knife
L- Fish knife
M- Soup spoon
N- Dessert spoon and cake fork
Once you have set your table, sit back and take in the beauty of having a perfect table for your guests to enjoy!
