Jeff thought I was a crazy person when I explained what a "Trash the Dress" photo shoot meant. He and I differ on how we place value on things. For example he will store prized items in boxes to make sure they are preserved will last forever. Then he will pass the box on to his kids, just like it was passed to him, so they can store the box and pass it on... and so on.
Personally I feel this approach is flawed! It's lunacy to me! I wholeheartedly believe that you should proudly display your prized items in a place of honor, to viewed and enjoyed frequently. I believe you should use the "good dishes". Consequences be damned if something gets broken.
The saddest thing I hear is when someone inherits the "good china" collection from their grandmother or mother and they only remember that it had never been used... because something might get broken! My grandmother used her good china - Franciscan Desert Rose - for our family meals. That memory will be with us forever. Grandma + Desert Rose = Favorite Memory
Despite his hesitation with the whole concept, we had the Trash the Dress Photo shoot. It was the most amazing experience. Not only did we have an amazing time, but the photos are such a great representation of who we are as a couple! I love them!!!!
