Oh Man....

I've always loved the toasting flutes with the swarovski crystals in the stems.

So, I was just thinking about where I'm going to register and I thought 'I should register at Macy's because they carry swarovski.'

I looked at macys.com to see if they carry the flutes....they do, for $335!!!!

That's crazy $$$$ for toasting flutes right?

Are there any other companies that make flutes with the same look, without the huge price tag?

I recieved those flutes from a BM for my e-party bc I talked about them since I was 12 years old

BUT I believe I once DID find flutes JUST like them but I cant remmeber for the life of me what they were...

I'll do some research

It is a bit nuts.. I wish I would habe knownthis sooner. i just retunrned mine. My motherin law had gotten them for us for 250 and we actaully just retuned them becasue my mother...not knowing about the original flutes.. had some Waterford toasting flutes made up for us.. since she will not be at the wedding I will be using her to honor her.... If i woul dhave know i would have sold them to u instead of returning them.
They are very expensive though

yeah i was dying for those flutes.....and ultimately realized that it's too expensive.

what pissses me off is that Swavorski figured out that brides are using them for their toasting flutes---and those sonsofbitches jacked up the price!

when i first looked at them more than a year ago---they were UNDER $300.....and then raised the price up as the popularity went up!

Those were my sister's toasting flutes & after I gave my speech at her wedding she was hugging me and it slipped out of her hand and shattered!!

So now...they have one! haha

Lenox makes a toasting flute set called Jubilee they are a knock-off of the swavorski---not as sparkly, but a popular replacement, i think they are $70 but most of the time macy's has them during the holidays for 50% off @ $35

Wow!! Thanks!

And DNichols--So sad about your sister losing one...there's $175 on the floor!

They're perfect...you're right that they aren't that sparkly....

Maybe I should register for the expensive one's in case anyone wants to splurge...if I don't get them I can buy the other one's myself....is that wrong? lol

nah, nothing wrong with it. drop many many hints that you would LOVE those.

for me--we registered for them, and then i realized if ppl spent $335 on them for me, that it was $335 that would've been spent on something else. FH and i don't live together and have next to nothing when it comes to furnishing an apt. or house. so i ultimately took them off the registry. but that was just my take on it.

i say throw them BOTH on the registry and go ahead and buy the Jubilee ones for now. (they fly off the shelves during the holidays and then wind up on back order ater new year's!) then if you get the ones you want.....return the jubilee!

Not sure if it makes a difference but this site is offering them for $285.

I love them... the other ones are pricey but if you really want them put them on the registry and maybe people will chip in!

I have them and they are sooo pretty!!!!!!!!!!! They Look just like the swarovski flutes!! I got them at Macys I think they were 40$$.

Lenox doesnt make the Jubilee crystal anymore. They were asked to take it off by swarovski.

Now what you see in macys and Fortunoff is Jubilee Pearl (pearls inside the stem)
