Registry guilt

Keep the ones you want. People can buy one or more place settings and between multiple guests you could get the whole set and it's not a burden on anyone.

$35? No that's not expensive for an entire place setting. I understand everyone has a different budget but that's why you register for a variety of items.

The nice thing about BB&B is that even if people don't buy everything off the registry they give you a nice discount to buy items from the registry yourself.

Why feel guilty people are going to buy what they can afford. Keep the plates you want

Don't feel guilty!

I tend to like a range of prices...that way we can go solo on a gift or we'll often chip in as a group to get a more expensive item. Like PP said, solo's could gift a plate setting & if you don't receive enough...you'll get a discount from the store afterwards (can purchase the rest with cash gifts, if you'd like).

Ask what you want, people can make there own decisions.

Don't feel guilty! I've seen people ask for plates that are $80 to $100 a place setting (china is still very popular in my social circles). I'm registered for 3 different sets of plates--the china we want is $50 a place setting, then we're registered for some pottery style dishes for casual entertaining that are around $70 or $80 for a set of 8 place settings, and then some correlle dishes for everyday that are like $30 for a set of 4 place settings (I love dishes and entertaining if you can't tell!).

Don't feel guilty! I have a $40/place setting set on mine and don't feel guilty. I've had one person buy one and already send it to us. I'm hoping to get the rest of the quality we requested but if not I'll just go buy the rest after the wedding

$35 is nothing! I put a $375 comforter set on my registry. lol!

I have a $500 roomba on my registry! Though I mostly put it on there for the completion discount lol.

I wanted a mix and match look...so I literally registered for each individual plate and bowl. I noticed one of my guests has already bought a bunch of the dinner plates. Which means someone else can pick up salad plates and another can buy some bowls. People will buy what they want and can afford. Which means you may get the whole set from one guest....or you might get it from six different guests. $35 per place setting is very reasonable and flexible!

$35 place setting is fine. Like PP said, people will buy what they can afford and some folks might do joint gifts. Our registry ranges from $10- $300
