Living together for 14 years

I don’t think it is tacky at all! People would want to give you a gift for your wedding. You can ask for upgraded items on your registry

Not at all! How exciting. 🎉

Absolutely not. If people don’t want to buy off of it they won’t. You will probably have at least a few guest that will look for your registry. I’ve lived with my fiancé for 7 years and we’ve gotten to the point that all of our stuff is pretty worn out or flimsy. It is also an opportunity to ask for things we wouldn’t normally splurge on for ourselves. We recently finished college and just can’t afford to buy new things right now.

Go for it! I would also suggest something a little different like a honeymoon registry, since you probably already have all your home supplies from living together that long, but nothing wrong with a traditional registry either, especially if there are things you want to upgrade.

I’m not doing one personally because it would make me feel tacky PERSONALLY for myself. With that said if I was attending someone else’s wedding I totally wouldn’t think it is tacky at all. Some of your guests will actually find it very helpful that way they know what to get you if they feel funny just putting money in a card. Go for it

Nope, I don't think so. Go for it.

Nope. I was living with my husband (we got married on our original date in April, but are still having the ceremony and wedding in October) 11 years before we got married. I didn’t create a registry at first because I had similar thoughts. So many guests messaged me asking where we were registered that I decided to create one. Guests seem to like the ease of picking something off of a registry.

No, it’s not tacky.

No it isn't tacky at all

Not at all! And Congratulations!!

NO! NO! NO! It’s not tacky at all

You’re celebrating your lives together and making a commitment through marriage. You deserve all the bells and whistles! Do not downplay your relationship.

Also this is my second marriage, and we’ve been together/living together for 5-6 years. While we don’t have a registry and aren’t necessarily asking for gifts because we are modest and have pretty much everything we need, I wouldn’t negate having one just because you’re already living together.

Great for you guys! It's not tacky - there's so many things I've wanted to get but there were higher priorities. ... And now we have a label maker, and everything is labeled. Win win win.
Make a registry, and put what you want!

I don't think it's tacky, if you guys truly need household items together! I've been living with my partner for 7 years and we just don't need any more crap for our house, lol which is the only reason we aren't doing a registry. We are asking for contributions to our honeymoon fund instead. This is your celebration and your guests want to help you start your marriage off on the right foot! And if that means helping you outfit your house, then I'm sure they will be glad to contribute.

Thank you for putting my mind at ease.

Thank you! I like the idea of a Honeymoon registry! This way they can contribute what they are comfortable with (or at all, of course their presence is our ultimate present). I just felt kind of weird asking for stuff (especially since we are not just starting out in life). This is a perfect solution.

No! Not tacky at all!
