Reception table settings
Tacky or not
My reception is going to be filled with pink drama. The tables will be adorned with white floor length table linens, and champagne and pink overlays. The centerpieces will be pink. Because the chair covers and table cloths would be white, I wanted to incorporate white into the place settings. I have found these gorgeous china patterns for the bridal party; however, I am thinking of going with a high grade plastic for guest. The entire reception is not a seated meal, and there will be guest that will be mingling while eating. I didn't want the china to get destroyed. As you can see from the photos, they have the same simple design; however, the pictures show two differnt sizes. Thus creating a wider or smaller band. Each place setting will be topped with a gold carriage wedding favor, and sat upon a gold charger. Does this add a certain degree of tackiness, or will this idea be okay? Please advise!

I was also going to use a high grade plastic plate for my place settings. But, after doing some research I found that it was almost cheaper to have actual china than plastic! Can you believe it!?

thanks, are you renting or buying place settings.  I will have over six hundred guests, can this still be accommodated?

If its what you want - go for it!  I've decided to say screw whether someone thinks something is "tacky" or not!  Check my blog for rants about the whole tackiness debate!  Are you buying all of the china/plastic?  I'm just a bit confused too - there are place settings, but also mingling while eating (ie. cocktail style)?
