My husband thought it was crazy that we were doing the whole wedding and having wedding showers (we had 4 which was low for my hometown - my oldest sister had 12) and making people buy us gifts. We're old! Hey, it might be his second wedding, but it's my first, and I plan on it being my last! Little did he know. At some point I think I finally told him how much the plates cost that he eats off every night, but I didn't for A LONG time because he'd have had a heart attack that anyone spent that much money on us. Why not use Villeroy and Boch for every day? It's not like it's Lenox. That was just a cultural divide. He was from a family with no money and his first wife, although rich, was (apparently) pretty rednecky.
