Must Haves On Registry

I’m not married yet (October 5, 2019 🤗). But I figured I would chime in anyway. My FH & I already live together & own a home. So making a registry was difficult at first. However, we ended up doing a lot of upgrades. We put beddings, towels, & kitchen items that can replace some of our older items. We also put items that we would love to have, but maybe wouldn’t want to pay the high price tags for (ex: Roomba). For these pricier items, I made it to where multiple guests can chip in and buy the item together so 1 guest isn’t stuck paying for the expensive gift (unless they want to).

We put a ton of DIY home items, since we are renovating our house. So smart home accessories, light fixtures, door knobs, etc.

Hi there Star!

Check out this WeddingWire article, I think you will find it super helpful - The Wedding Registry Checklist Every Couple Needs.

Room by room, it gives you ideas and suggestion of items to register for! You could go through a tick off everything you already have, and perhaps identify anything you're missing!

My fiancé really wanted to include a new pot and pan set on our registry. The one we have is a cheap set from Walmart and it's really starting to show wear.

Me on the other hand, I wanted to include luggage. What we have are handy-me-downs from my parents. One suitcase has a warped frame and the other has a broken wheel.
