I love my parents’ wedding pattern, Moonspun by Lenox (top), but it was discontinued long before my husband and I got married. Knowing we’d someday inherit it, and pass both our new and heirloom china down through generations, we wanted a complementary style that wouldn’t compete with Moonspun’s subtle filigree design. Our Lenox Maywood china (bottom), classic ivory with a crisp platinum band, harmonizes beautifully. In the meantime, it’s nice to have a simple backdrop that we can dress up or down with colorful accent pieces. — Lisa Frederick, managing editor
