I am so confused with china. I really like Kate Spade's June Lane, but it's so pricey. How did you decide what china to pick?

Re: China
narrow it down , get 2nd opinions, I would register for what you like- some people will get it for you-I thought mine were too $$ but i got every setting! Dont worry, people will chip in, aunts/cousins etc... will buy it dont settle for something ...youre going to have it forever

Re: China
We picked out what we like. It happened to not be so pricey. Don't pick out something you don't love just b/c it's less expensive.
There is only 1 thing we compromised on and that was our sterling silver. It wound up being $400 per place setting. We wouldn't get ANY of that... so we registered for a very similar pattern that is about half the price.

Re: China
DH and I choose a pattern we really liked. We knew going into it that we didn't want to register for a really expensive set. So when we were registering, we stubmled across a Mikasa setting we liked and registered for it. It turned out that it was almost always on sale in Macy's and was a good deal. We have Mikasa Platinum Crown, which looks similar to a lot of other more expensive settings.

Re: China
I am choosing china on looks and price. The stuff I really really want, I know I will only get a few pieces and end up having to take it back. What would I do with three place settings and a salt shaker only? If you think you wont end up with enough of the kate spade that you like, see if you can find a cheaper brand with a similar pattern.
