The Dos and Donts of a Wedding Registry
2
There is one essential part of your wedding which
might bring you the most joy after the big day is
finished. You and your spouse return home to find
presents piled up just waiting to be opened.
Thats the joy of a wedding registry. Creating
your registry is one of the many purely fun parts
of planning your wedding.

Going to a store with your future husband or wife
and choosing all the items youd love to have for
your home is a special time for the two of you to
share. While creating your registry might seem
like a pretty simple task, building a registry
that is actually beneficial to both you, as well
as your wedding guests, takes time and a little
bit of planning.

If youre curious as to how you should build your
wedding registry then check out some of the tips
below.Going Hog WildRemember how excited you
were for Christmas or your birthday as a kid?
Your focus was on presents.

You couldnt wait to see all the new stuff you
got and the thought of ripping off the wrapping
paper kept you up at night. This can easily
happen when it comes time to start your registry.
Going through the store can be overwhelming.
Simply put the store has a lot of items. A lot
of items you would love for your home.
6
In fact, there are so many amazing items in any
given store that its easy to leave with hundreds
of things on your list without even realizing it.
Thats where the hog wild term comes in. Walking
through your favorite store with a scanner gun
giddy with wedding bliss can lead to your wedding
registry growing a little too big to handle.
7
Before heading to the store you should always sit
down with your partner and discuss what items you
truly need for your home. Staples like linens,
cookware, and kitchenware are all high on the
list. If you already have those items in stock
from other family members or past purchases then
move on to other areas which might be helpful
décor and household essentials.
8
Include Several Known StoresOne major mistake
some couples go in for when planning their
registry is picking a single store for
everything. It might seem like a simple way to
keep your list in order, but keep in mind that
guests may want a variety of places to choose
from.
9
Not to mention the prices from store to store
vary. Technology has made it extremely easy for
most wedding guests to pop online, search through
your registry, and order something nice in under
a few minutes. Online-only stores may be
appealing due to price or ease of access but
think about your guests.
10
Older guests may be more inclined to visit the
store in person to pick out their items. Choosing
stores which appeal only to tech-savvy friends
may end with limited items from your registry if
guests are unable to order online. While choosing
a few of your favorite niche stores online is
fine, try to include some bigger well-known
chains as well.
11
That way all members of your wedding day will be
able to choose something beautiful from your
wedding registry.No Personal ItemsThis notch
on the list might be a hard pill to swallow for
some brides and grooms.
12
That new shaving set might really help get your
wedding off on the right foot. Plus those
designer shoes youve been dying to purchase will
really brighten up your new closet, right? Sadly
these arguments dont really hold up when it
comes time for you to create your registry.
13
Trying to build a registry with a lot of personal
items is tacky in the wedding world. Your wedding
registry should always be a reflection of what
you need as a couple. These items should help you
flourish in your new home or get you ready for
living together. Some of the gifts will be
essential to helping you operate once you return
from your honeymoon.
14
As much as a wedding registry might seem like
its all about you and your partner, its really
about you as a couple. Its tempting to add a few
items here and there that fall into the personal
gift category but do your best to resist. Find a
beautiful lamp or a nice rug instead and add that
to your list.
