They love all things vintage and together make gorgeous tablescapes. Marah brings the current trend knowledge for brides, being one herself, and Karen brings the design. She first found her passion for the design and bridal world by hosting her niece's bridal shower. Hauling a back seat full of china to Ohio, the idea of china rentals came to light. Since then, she knew that she would like to continue to bring brides' visions to life with beautifully curated china, goblets, and flatware. Together they carefully select items to grow their inventory to match any brides needs. They shop estate sales and antique stores all over the state of Michigan and Ohio.
The Vintage Dish is located 20 miles Northeast of Lansing in Laingsburg, Michigan.

What Is Vintage Tableware?
Vintage china is timelessly classic styling that has a story to tell. Our collection comes from all over the world, Germany, France, Austria, Japan, and from homes like yours and mine! We have been graciously given many pieces from grandparents who know that newly wedded couples will celebrate upon their china. The past moments and memories should be revered, not thrown away!
Vintage means different things to different people. Our vintage means fine china, goblets, and silverware that are in pristine condition. However you envision it, we can bring it to life. We will take your vision of your special day and enhance it using specially curated pieces from our collection.

An Eco-Friendly Option
An Eco-Friendly Option
The best part of being an eco-friendly vendor is giving YOU the opportunity to give a second life to things that may otherwise have been tossed out or left to collect dust.
Let’s be honest. A lot of waste is produced when over 100 people are eating and drinking together for an entire evening. Although this isn’t entirely avoidable, with planning ahead we can help reduce our negative impact on the environment. The easiest way to avoid producing more waste than necessary is to avoid disposable materials when we can.
