If you’re just starting to create your wedding registry, chances are you have a lot of questions. I can totally relate, because right after I got engaged, I was suddenly extremely curious about things I had never wondered about: things like stainless steel vs. nonstick cookware, and down comforters vs. quilts.
I often wished I had paid more attention to other people’s registries instead of just scanning the prices and finding a gift that fit my budget!
That’s why I wanted to give you a head start, so to speak. We have compiled a list of our favorite items for entertaining, cooking, and decorating the bedroom, in a variety of tastes and styles. Our hope is to take some of the guesswork out of the registry process as you find your own sense of style for your new home!
