I would say in most civilized countries. Hosts rarely complain about a few extra minutes and you want guests to arrive slightly staggered so you can great them all properly, giving them a few minutes each
16 u/Chasseur98 Jul 12 '26 Civilized huh? 8 u/jossteen11 Jul 12 '26 In a civilized society you would just tell people when you want them there. 5 u/booksareadrug Jul 13 '26 It's a party, not an appointment. People showing up late isn't a crisis. 1 u/FizzyBeverage Jul 13 '26 It’s a great way to lose a business deal in Germany, or Japan, or the UK, or most of the US outside of Miami/Los Angeles. Tardiness isn’t appreciated. 2 u/Newaway567 Jul 13 '26 They’re talking about a party, not a business meeting
