It’s wedding season and if you aren’t planning a wedding, you are likely invited to one, if not several. Whether you are stumped on what to put on a registry or what to buy off of a registry, I’ve got your back. Here are some of my favorite things that we put on our wedding registry.
Nice Luggage- I feel like this is one of those semi-expensive, adult-y things that I wouldn’t have bought myself but am SO HAPPY to have now. There’s something really nice about having quality pieces of luggage that are sturdy, roll easily and are built to last. This is the set we use.
If you are shopping for a couple that loves to travel, these packing cubes are awesome and literally saved me from packing catastrophes will we were in Ireland.
Rubber Kitchen Utensils- Okay, this one probably seems silly, but SINCERELY I didn’t know how much I needed these things in my life! The flexible material helps you get all of food out of the bowl, the pan, the jar- you name it! And I love it. We have this set with wooden handles that we keep out near the stove and then I also have this jar scraper and set of mini spatulas as well for baking and cooking.
Along those same lines, silicone baking mats were another amazing discovery from my registry. Makes clean up SO much faster!
Toasting Flutes and Bar Glasses- We aren’t the fancy kind of people that need a full 16 piece set of crystal glasses, but we did register for one set of beautiful toasting flutes that we bring out for special celebrations for the two of us. I am happy to say we’ve used them several times!
My husband really loves liquor decanters and he was very excited to receive this crystal set for our wedding. Don’t feel pressured to register for (or buy) a full dining set of crystal that will sit unused in a cabinet forever. Pick a few special pieces that you know you will use and go for those.
Good sheets- It’s amazing what a difference good sheets can make! And, for the record, my version of good sheets is not a 5,000 thread count Egyptian cotton set- it’s actually this really affordable set from Target. They have elastic panels sewn in to the corners to make fitting them over the corners of the mattress MUCH easier (can I get an AMEN to that?!?!) and they have a slight silky texture that feels really nice! Again, this was something that I wouldn’t necessarily have bought myself, but something I am so happy we do have now.
If you are planning your wedding this summer or attending one, hopefully this list helps you pick out the perfect gift. Happy wedding season!
