Not So Perfect Setting
December 6, 2011 § 1 Comment
I’m not a stickler for having matching plates and glasses or having any type of fine China. I never really understood the whole nice China on the wedding registry. Clearly I have no plans to have fancy parties to entertain lots of guests. But at minimum have more than 4 sets of plates, utensils and cups. This helps so you don’t have to constantly do the dishes or run out of something when you have guests over.
For those on a real budget Goodwill is a great place to pick up super cheap utensils, cups, and plates. They may not all match but they are cheap and I think it’s better to have 6 or more mismatching forks than only 2. The next upgrade option is a place like Ross or Marshalls. You can pick up a new set for a really good price. And if you want to go big, get married and you can put some fancy silverware and crystal on the registry because it can get absurdly expensive.
lol, get married just so you can have nice china.
