BESIDES Money and Honeymoon stuff:) I am just looking for what makes you raise your eyebrows. I was speaking to a girl I work with about things people do and dont register for. She said she gets mad when people register for games, movies, etc. I on the other hand like to make up cute baskets for showers usually with that type of stuff so LOVE them. One thing I saw I did not like once was a former friend of mine was getting married for the first time but had a child from a previous relationship... She put stuff on the registry for the child... Not just a few things but like 20 things.. It just found that odd. Anywho what else is kind of a etiquette no no.
Re: What would you side eye on a Registry
I would not side eye board games, outdoor activities equipment, a single piece of large furniture, accent furniture, non price protected mattresses (because then I assume you're putting it on there for the completion discount, which doesn't work on things like tempur pedic)
I don't think the bathroom scale is all that weird either. If it's a couple who's into fitness and wants some kind of fancy scale, then I say go for it!
I have saw scales on a bunch of registries, never thought it was odd at all... I also don't mind games, movies and such.
I always side eye the ones that add stuff for their kids, its not Christmas or their birthday, its the adults wedding.
Having had both a bridal and baby shower, as a recipient, I'm not much a fan of baskets of stuff that's not on the registry. They look beautiful, and I was thankful for any gift, but living in a 1-bedroom apt, extra stuff is a burden. Good gift-giving etiquette is to stick with the registry.
I love my Corelle! I use it for everything. We got two different patterns (because I think someone misread the registry) but they coordinate really well.
I didn't really side eye this, but my friend's husband registered for a Playstation 3 when they got married. Turns out my friend had no idea he did this--no one got it for them, so she only knew when we told her how funny we thought it was. I'm guessing it was for the completion discount.
Also, another sign that I'm not yet an adult: I have no idea what Corelle is.
Corelle is a type of dishware
I've seen many a groom slide things on the registry lol. AND I've seen a lot of them get those things you know they are the ones that registered for it.
