In some ways our wedding gift giving has really changed – I can’t remember the last time I knew of someone receiving furniture as a gift. It’s wonderful that you have some of these items.

Thanks, Apple. I am very lucky to have the things I have. I hadn’t thought too much about the furniture until you mentioned it. Funny, my middle daughter and her husband received two captain’s chairs as a wedding gift from my in laws and sister-in-law. But S-in-L owns a furniture store. We later bought them the side chairs to match.
