    I had been thinking I was going to have to have plastic forks for my wedding.  Our venue is a nontraditional one, and we are basically bringing in everything we need for the wedding.  The cost of renting silverware is ridiculous.  I didn't think we could afford to buy anything but plastic.

    However, last week I found stainless steel forks for $1.49 a dozen.  I ordered 36 dozen (432 forks), and they came in today.  They are pretty much what you'd get in a restaurant, other than a really high end one.  They are cheap enough that I won't mind if a few get thrown out, but durable enough so I should be able to resell them after the wedding.

    I am unreasonably happy about this.

    Sounds great! Thinking that you could use them, then sell or donate, will be worth your trouble right now. Kudos to you!

    That is awesome! And I thought my 4/$1.00 Wal-mart forks were a good find (son used to throw away his food and fork when clearing his plate)! Wink
