August 2012 Weddings

Favorite GIft so far?

So a lot of us have had showers, or at least a few presents show up on our door steps! What is everyone's favorite gift so far? For me it's hard to choose because I want to say my Kitchenaide mixer, but I haven't used it yet... so probably my Crock-Pot! What's your fav?

Re: Favorite GIft so far?

  • I am not having a shower, and have only gotten one gift, BUT it is a BEAUTIFUL bed set (skirt, coverlet and shams) that is perfect for the summer nights.
  • My favorite is a kitchen crock for utensils with my name on it. It is from my grandma and all of the women in our family have one. I also got a really nice red Kitchenaid knife set that I'm excited about!
  • I'm not having a shower, but so far my favorite gift is from a friend that isn't even invited to the wedding. I think it is very sweet that she thought enough of me to search out my registry and send a gift.

  • My four compartment laundry sorter! That thing is awesome. My second favorite is my knife set. I've never owned a real set before, and it's made me realize how crappy the stuff was that we had before.

  • Tied between a beautiful silver menorah and the KitchenAid mixer. Neither were shower presents, both came from family unexpectedly!
  • My aunt sent us one of our place settings (Lenox Federal Platinum). I took it all out of the box and admired it for like 20 minutes, lol. I LOVE IT!!! Then I packed it away again, because I am not using it until after the wedding and after we move into a house.
  • Too many favorites to count :)

  • No shower yet, but have received 4 place settings from an out of town aunt and uncle.  We also registered for a flat screen as an "if only" kind of item...showed up on our doorstep yesterday!  Both still packed, but we're pretty excited about them!

    That.sounds.awesome.

    Tied between two - the "we'll register but don't think we'll get it" Dyson, and the new grill.  The Dyson was from his parents and the grill was from mine.  We have great families!
  • Haha, it's very awesome, and it's at Target!
  • My shower was on june 23rd. I got a kitchen aid stand mixer and i was shocked to see it was pink, i joked when registering with fiance that i wanted a pink one but i didn't register for it, he apparently went on the registry and changed the color to pink. My atcual favorite gift came from my FMIL, she gave us our dyson, bed set and a picture frame with a heartfelt note to me welcoming me to the fmaily in it but the best thing of all was a necklace she gave me, the chain belonged to her mother who passed away 2 years ago and she bough a diamond heart pendenat for it. Needless to say every woman at my shower was in tears.
