    We just started our registries this past weekend - SO FUN! So enjoy :)

    We've registered at Bloomingdales for stuff like our fine china, casual dishes, cutlery, cookware, glasses and barware, crystal, bedding and bath, etc.

    We're also registering at Target and Crate & Barrel for smaller stuff - trash can, cooler, small kitchen gadgets, mixing bowls, measuring cups, etc. 

    Have fun!

    Crate and Barrel, Target, and Sears. 

    We're starting this weekend too!  But I might switch out Sears for Lowe's... but I haven't decided yet.

    We did Crate & Barrel, BBB and Disney Honeymoon. We chose the first two as they have what we think to be a good return policy and wrap the gifts for guests so it is convenient for them. We added in the Honeymoon registry for our Disney Honeymoon as another fun alternative option if people dont want to go the traditional route.

    We registered at Target, Crate & Barrel, and Williams-Sonoma.

    I know Target gets a bad name for their return policies, but half of our guests live on the Iron Range, so we wanted them to have a "brick & mortar" option for shopping (Target, Penney's and Walmart were our options...).

    We chose C&B for our china and glassware, Target for home goods (towels, sheets, etc.) and W-S for specialty foodie things.

    Hello!

    We registered at Crate & Barrel, Target, and 10,000 Villages (if you're looking for something a little different, that a good option).

    I hope you have a truly wonderful time with it. FI and I really struggled with our first "registering" adventure because we felt very overwhelmed and didn't register for much because we wanted to compare items before we settled on anything. I went in with the misconception that we'd get it all in one day.  So, if it takes you a few trips to get into it, don't stress, you are not alone and you'll find all you need--I wish I had known that in advance:)

     Good luck finding the best places for you!

    We set ours up a year in advance, but it was too early - I've had to delete quite a few things from C&B that are out of stock and such. I'd wait until this spring - probably April or May, unless someone throws a shower earlier than that.
