Registry Days



With 332 days left to go, my wedding email this morning was all about our registry. What belongs in a registry? Traditionally it was all china patterns and fancy bowls. Today, anything goes. With so many stores opening their doors to registries, from Macy's and Pottery Barn to Home Depot and even Amazon.com, the options are limitless for couples. Many couples have already started their lives together, and do not need the traditional items of years past. Couples today are registering for everything, from traditional china patterns to ipads and camping gear.

As a couple who has spent the past three years living together, we have a lot of what we need. We discussed what to register for at length, and have decided to upgrade what we currently own. Most of what we have has been inherited from my grandparents' well-stocked kitchen. While these items have come in handy for the past 5-8 years, it is time for an upgrade. We spend a great deal of time in the kitchen, and cooking dinner together is an everyday occurance that we both look forward to. Some guests may find our kitchen list to be quite extensive, but it is these items that define us as a couple.

What will you register for?
