Beginning in 2022, Courtney Opalko Etiquette will be the exclusive partner providing everyday etiquette classes for members of the amazing GATHER Hospitality Académie!

What’s The GATHER Hospitality Académie? Well, I am so glad you asked!

Kayty, a hospitality educator and owner of GATHER: Intentional Living created The GATHER Hospitality Académie as a way to equip the everyday hostess (that’s you!) with the skills you need to open your doors and fill your table with the goal of creating - and celebrating - connection and community.

Kayty’s mission aligns so well with mine - to use modern etiquette as a tool to empower you to feel more confident in opening your doors and creating deep, meaningful connections in your community. Where there’s kindness and respect, there’s connection. Where there’s connection, community grows. Modern etiquette is the key to opening those doors.

Beginning in 2022, I will be creating and bringing exclusive content designed to empower the everyday hostess to open her doors and fill her tables with EFFORTLESS CONFIDENCE.

Kayty and her team will help you to set the scene with delicious meals, beautiful flower arrangements, efficient organizing and entertaining tips - and I’ll help tie it all together with simple social and dining etiquette tips to give you that extra boost of confidence we all need as we begin our journey as a thoughtful, intentional hostess!

So who is the GATHER Hospitality Académie? It’s for anyone looking to grow in the area of hospitality! There is something to learn for everyone, from the new host to the most experienced, and everyone in between!

There are already so many amazing classes available to help you get ready to welcome guests for the holidays. And right now, Kayty is offering THE BEST DEAL EVER to join this unique and lovely community!

Right now, there are 100 $100 Annual Memberships available - meaning you’ll have unlimited access to every lesson already in the database as well as all of the NEW classes coming in 2022! Use code COURTNEY to take advantage of this Black Friday Sale!

Every Annual Membership also comes with a lovely cheese knife set and the option to give the membership as a gift!

The GATHER Hospitality Académie is the ultimate destination for anyone looking to grow their hospitality skills. Here’s a taste of what you can expect to learn:

• Charcuterie Boards & Hospitality Hacks with Kayty: You’ll wow your guests with simple yet captivating charcuterie boards perfect for any occasion. Kayty will walk you through how to create amazing grazing boards and share her hospitality hacks along the way!

• 3 Course Cooking Meals with Professional Chef Dina Deleasa-Gonsar of Dish It Girl: Dina will walk you through how to plan, cook and serve crowd-pleasing meals for every season in step-by-step lessons you can follow along with and revisit anytime.

• Organize with NEAT Method: With a class for each room, you can invite national organizing company NEAT Method into your home and work your way toward the organized home of your dreams! When it comes to being a thoughtful hostess, being prepared is half the battle and staying organized is a huge part of being prepared!
