Dinnerware Disaster



Remember when I posted about the first plates we got off of our registry? Remember how exceedingly happy I was with them? It was only a few days ago that I took them out of their boxes and danced around the kitchen at the thought of 12 full place settings filling my cabinets.

Well today tragedy struck when I checked my registry for purchases (as I do often) and my dishes were gone! I thought perhaps maybe one of my amazing friends or family bought them for us, but no...they would still be listed there. So I checked the main page and they were gone from there too!

Why was I not warned so I could buy them up? I have called, I have emailed and no one at Rosanna, Inc is getting back to me. I'm quite distraught. I loved these dishes because they were from a small retailer and were so unique. I built the rest of my registries around these plates. I'm heart broken.

Does anyone know of a place were I can get unusual, fun, well made dinnerware that isn't at a major chain store??? I know, it's a tall order.

What am I going to do with the 3 place settings we have?

Every Day Dishes

{The dishes in their lovely boxes}

For Christmas my mom, really my parent's on my mom's action, bought Hillary and I our first dishes from our registry. 


I am so in love with them! I took a chance and registered for them online without seeing them first. They are such great quality and are visually stunning. 


We got two place settings (dinner plate, salad plate, bowl & mug) a set of latte mugs and a set of dessert plates.  I put them back in their pretty boxes until we get the whole set so they don't get scratched or marred. But I want to use them now!


I found the amazing site Rosanna Inc. last year, before I was even engaged, on the fab site With This Ring - I know, I know reading wedding blogs before the engagement... So I fell in love with Rosanna and the designs on the page and new I would register there as soon as it was socially appropriate to do so. 

PS - I love your comments and always love to hear from you. If you have questions about my venue or any other on the site, feel free to email me at sara@porcelainmanifesta . I'd love to talk to you!
