I’m particularly reflective as I write this on my sixth wedding anniversary. I’m thinking back to the first days of being engaged and how totally smitten I was with the idea of planning a wedding. I was sure my husband and I wouldn’t be registering for anything — we had everything we wanted and took care of things when we needed them. What else was there to add to a wedding registry?
Funny enough, it was this very website that convinced me to change my thinking and start a registry. And I am so glad I did. The point of all this is to say, that you may be a couple who thinks you have everything — and maybe you really do! — but there is always something you can add to your registry. By doing so, you accomplish two things at once: You appease your traditional guests who would never think not to buy a wedding gift, and you’re giving them a curated list of things you actually want.
Need some ideas? We’ve got a few. Keep reading to discover some of the best wedding registry items for the couple who has everything.
Fun Wedding Gifts for the Couples Who Have Everything
Heirloom wedding video book
If I had known about these when I married, I would have reconsidered having a videographer at my wedding. The Heirloom wedding video book is a coffee table book that opens up to showcase your wedding video on a 5-inch HD screen. It’s a beautiful, unique way to preserve and showcase your wedding memories.
Collectors’ edition board games
Are you a couple that loves to game? I’m willing to bet you’ve got a closet or cabinet filled with board games, card games, and everything in between. But now, you’re getting married, and it’s time to grow up. Add this gorgeous, shelf-worthy set of 15 vintage classics to your wedding registry to demonstrate your maturity and level up your gaming.
Subscription box
Think you have everything? Think again. Subscription boxes are a great way to stay on top of the hottest products as soon as they hit the market. Whether you’re a foodie couple, coffee or tea lovers, or just can’t get enough novelty sweets, there’s something out there for you — and you can find it all on Amazon! Find the one (or two!) you just can’t live without, and add it to your wedding registry. Now you have everything.
Experiential Wedding Gifts for the Couples Who Have Everything
Professional photography session
You know what you couldn’t possibly have yet? A future moment as a married couple captured during a gorgeously perfect photography session. Whether you want to use it to celebrate your first wedding anniversary or even schedule a romantic shoot during your honeymoon, adding a professional photo session to your registry is a great way to keep the celebrations going. Don’t have a go-to photographer? Start with a search for “couples photographer near me,” browse portfolios, and reach out to your favorites!
DIY home brewing kit
Enjoying your favorite beer is one thing, but sipping on a home brew, you made yourself is an entirely unique experience that makes the perfect wedding registry addition for couples who seem to have everything. This DIY beer-making kit comes with 11 flavor options and high-quality ingredients for all types of beer lovers. And it’s got all the equipment you need to start brewing!
Wine tasting and tour
Speaking of imbibing, if you’re a couple that appreciates a rare bottle of wine, consider adding a private wine tasting and tour to your wedding registry. You can use it as an opportunity to visit a bucket list destination like Napa or Provence (who doesn’t love a great excuse to travel?), or, if you’ve been wanting to visit a local winery, this is your chance! Don’t forget to add some wine glasses along with it so you can enjoy any bottles you bring home.
Practical Wedding Gifts for the Couples Who Have Everything
Bike storage
Whether you’re bike commuters, cycling enthusiasts, or simply love a casual ride together, it can be difficult to share space with a bike, not to mention two. This two-bike rack doesn’t require any installation — it simply sits on the floor and leans against the wall, relying on gravity for stabilization. Plus, it’s fully adjustable to accommodate everything from a road bike to a beach cruiser.
Countertop pebble ice maker
My husband and I will often ask each other what items signified that a person had “made it” when we were kids. As an adult, I know someone really has it all when I spot a pebble ice machine in their home. It’s an absolute necessity for anyone who loves a great home cocktail, but it’s also a fun way to change up your everyday drinks. Believe me, everyone loves pebble ice.
Tabletop pizza oven
You may think you have every cooking gadget you’ll ever need, but does that include a pizza oven? The Ooni Kona outdoor pizza oven is a sleek, ultra-quick way to cook the perfect pizza at home in 60 seconds or less. It’s easy to start, use, set up when you need it, and store when you don’t. Unless you’re reading this while eating a home-cooked pizza, we can agree that this fits the bill for your wedding registry.
Unique Wedding Gifts for the Couples Who Have Everything
Caviar serving dish
I would usually advise against adding a so-called “unitasker” to your wedding registry, let alone your kitchen, but a caviar serving dish deserves an exception. For couples who enjoy decadent hors d’oeuvres, there is nothing better than being able to serve them up at home without worrying about waterlogging their fare. With a caviar serving set on your wedding registry, you really will have everything.
Fire pit grill
If you’re the couple who has everything, I’m sure you already have a grill. And you might even have a fire pit in your yard. But what about a combination fire pit grill? Made of sturdy, durable stainless steel, this grill is a nod to campsite cooking anywhere, anytime. It has carrying handles that make it easily portable and adjustable so you can achieve the perfect temperature and char.
Chopstick stands
Having it all means something different to everyone. For some, it’s knowing where to find the best sushi in town. If that’s you, it’s time to step up your takeout serving game. A set of porcelain chopstick stands adds a touch of authenticity to your meal and gives you a proper place to rest your utensils when they’re not in use.
