If she does, the lady will take the gentleman's arm as they walk into the dinning2 room. If she does not, the ladies will go in first, followed by the gentlemen. The hostess will either point out their seats to the guests as they come in or have a place card at each place with the guests name on it.

But if there is something you may not like, you may quietly say: "No thank you."
