How
Many and What Types?
We recommend getting at least one
piece of glassware per place setting (usually between
8 and
12).
But it's
a
good idea
to have extras in case of breakage or if you throw lots
of parties.
Couples should register for
basic water glasses and juice glasses; however,
because there are so many different types of glassware
there
is no
right
or
wrong
choice beyond these essentials.
If you choose crystal glasses, you
will probably want to include wineglasses,
water goblets, and champagne flutes. For other types
of glassware, think
of what you, your
fiancé, friends and family enjoy drinking and
buy accordingly.
