It arrived Friday!! And I didn't get to open it till Saturday but I opened all 12 sets to look at every plate individual. I am in LOVE! The plates are Opal Innocence Scroll by Lenox. It comes with a dinner plate, salad plate, and bread plate. Who knew you would need a plate just for bread??? But, my waiter brother told me that yes it was a bread plate and not to be confused for a dessert plate. Apparently you clean the salad plate and use it for dessert. Hmmmmm....
But they are gorgeous! And I can't wait to use them!
It also came with a coffee cup and saucer. They are just as gorgeous as the plates! Me and the boy don;t drink coffee (I know were crazy!) But, who says we can't have hot chocolate in them : ) and my mother said that we can just make coffee for them when they come over! (That was the unspoken deal with these plates.)
I was also given the magazine "the knot" by my mother's friend for an engagement gift. A wonderful magazine! And after looking at dresses colors and from front cover to back cover....I decided I was off the purple train and on the green train! It goes better with my theme and I might still incorporate some purple in there. I have not decided. But, in May the flowers are just starting to come up so I think ivories and greens would go better with that setting.
I have also decided to add lace on invites and placecards and everything to tie in with my future dress. I LOVE lace, and I LOVE rustic. I can't fully show my appreciation for it all right now until I move into a place of my own. But, I am excited for this change in colors. Now only if I could sleep at night instead of thinking what color the bridesmaid dresses will be now!!
Happy Monday!!
