(long ridiculous story about family expectations there)... I got on his case about how we should use them now that we have them, so finally, after 2 years of marriage, we used them for a day-before-Easter brunch. We're going to try to make a tradition of that so we'll use them at least once a year.

It lasted about 7-8 months. We just had our 1 year anniversary and I am hoping to start the "tradition" back up. I love our china!!! It is Vera Wang Lace. heffalump on "How often do you use your "fancy" dishes?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-often-do-you-use-your-fancy-dishes#post-285067 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 20:04:32 +0000 heffalump 285067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We don't own any. My mom and my mil both have their grandmas china..... so I didn't register for any in hopes that I'll inherit one of theirs one day. I'll use it though. They both do for holidays and I will too when I take over.

I gave them to my mom. You should use the fancy more often!

When we registered for our wedding we only registered for one set and we use them as our everyday dishes. I knew we wouldn’t use “fancy” dishes and I wanted to make sure we got all of the ones that we registered for. The ones we have are definitely nice but functional.
