I am having a bit of a hard time accepting that we are gonna use plastic dinnerware and drink ware at our wedding. Our venue is outside, though it is a nice venue, we are serving a barbecue buffet, and a beer and wine bar. The caterer provides really nice looking plasticware that is included, or we could have rented china through them, I feel silly serving outdoor barbecue on china, but we set the dress code at semi-formal. The plasticware also saves us $900, which is a month's rent for us. We are getting married at 22, and cut costs in some ways so we could invite everyone we love from both of our large families (200 people). Part of me worries people will think our wedding is tacky and complain that they got dressed up and are eating off plastic, and the other part of me hopes that people understand we are young, on a budget, and we are more concerned with the people surrounding us on our big day than what they are eating off of. What do you guys think?
