      A registry is for stuff you need. Register for things you both need. I am of the belief that it should be household-related items, so we registered for pots and pans, dishes, bowls, silverware, a vacuum, knives, new bedding, towels, kitchen gadgets we didn't have and needed, juice glasses, barware etc. Stuff you need. And…

1012. Re: Most embarrassing thing your FI/ H has done?

      H is going to be mad at me for saying this. Years ago at our apartment, I was getting onto the shower. H wasn't really doing anything, just hanging out. I needed a towel or something so I came out of the bathroom before I got in and find H with the laptop on the kitchen counter - watching porn and whacking off. In the…

      We have been using the wedding gifts we've gotten, like a Keurig and other everyday items, because they are things we really wanted and use all the time. Our place settings and towels, we're saving until after we get married. The etiquette is if the wedding is called off before it happens, you need to give the gifts back…

      I just remembered FI was once invited to a shower where it was requested that the guests bring "paper products". We really thought paper products. Like paper towels, paper plates, maybe some toilet paper. We were informed by a friend's mom that this what people think is the "classy way" to ask for guests to bring money. A…

      I have 4, but one only has bedding/towels cause we didn't like the options at the other stores. I'm a BM in a wedding in June where the bride has 9. NINE freaking registries. and there's at *least* 75-100 items for each store. she and her FI have been living together for the last 10 years (and none of their current…

      Thanks! I am looking into Strawberry acres.. My best friend has already booked her reception at St. Joe's. It really sucks that we have such similar taste. =/ But now I might just look into a plain hall and decorating it as rustic as I can. Everything that Is google-able I think I have looked at. lol It has been one week…

      We registered at 3 - Crate and Barrel, Macy's and BBB. The 3rd was Macy's, since we really liked their towels and some other random items better than what we could find at the other 2 places. We have most of the guests coming from IL, WI and MN so it gives a good variety. I think it's up to you - I certainly have never…

      FWIW, you can still register for upgrades. Blankets, sheets, towels and other textiles wear over time and need to be replaced. We also upgraded our cookware to All-Clad and other great items. Plus, we did at China and stemware. The thing with honeymoon registries is two-fold for me: 1) I'm really anti cash registries and…

      People are smart enough to know that cash and gift cards are always a welcome gift. But some people don't feel comfortable giving them. So register for a few small upgrades, like nicer towels. That way people who really want to give you a physical gift will have some direction. And you can't bring up your registry or gifts…

      Everyone talking about toilet paper, reminded me. I bought my first large pack of "after the panic" toilet paper about two weeks ago. And my first large pack of "after the panic" paper towels last Friday. The "panic" TP was procured from Home Depot. I didn't hate it, but it was $6 more than my usual (Cottenelle) which I…
