Must-Have Items to Add to Your Wedding Registry

Planning a wedding can have quite a few trials to get through, but creating your wedding registry shouldn’t be one of them. So often, though, couples get caught up in making the perfect registry—and we get it! It’s tough to know exactly what you’ll need to start your new life together. There are so many new products that the stores say you need, but, honestly, you’ve gone your whole life without a garlic press, so how necessary can it actually be? Not to mention taking into consideration your guests’ budgets. 

No one wants their friends and family to feel obligated to purchase an expensive gift. We’d suggest alleviating any potential awkwardness or guilt by letting your guests know that gifts aren’t required—their presence is your gift. If they feel so inclined, though, the registry can provide some ideas. We’re here to help you to sort through all the trouble and help with you with your dream wedding registry!
