      NECESSARY, 100%!!!!! We debated and considered it, and we got one for our wedding and it was the BEST decision we made! I never had a plan for someone spilling red wine all down my dress, it just happened during the cocktail ceremony and there was my DOC and her assistant to save the day and come to my rescue as they…

      Can you register for some "house project" items at a store that does have registries? I mean, you can get paint, nails, tools, light fixtures, curtains, rugs, shelves, etc. at Walmart or Target. Any Home Depot specific items you could still buy with any cash you do receive. However, you really can't use any new towels,…

      We have to pick up our wedding rings. We also have to meet with the priest so we can pick the readings for the mass. This weekend is the birthday of one of FI's friend. They want to go to a bar tomorrow night and go to Rodizio on Sunday. Allie, where are you getting your free trial? Just curious since I'm getting a free…

      We just had our engagement party and received a bunch of gifts (totally not expected!) We got champagne, wine, chocolates, a planner, hand made ceramic bowl, kitchen towels, oven mitts, serving bowl, cook books, a weekend getaway to a lodge with our close friends (combined gift), some coffee mugs, and a check. In the past,…

      We already owned a home and lived together for a few years, so i really didn't feel i needed much. I already had a kitchenaid, along with a pretty fully stocked kitchen/house. My favorite gift was the pasta maker attachment for my kitchenaid. I love making as much as i can from scratch, instead of boxed/packaged foods, so…

      ****STUCK IN BOX**** Just curious. What do you get couples who you feel already have good enough stuff? Do you just not get them a gift? Do you get them something not on the registry? How do you know what they registered for is an upgrade and not what they really need? I'm not questioning your reasons , just curious. Our…

      I definitely would have preferred a themed wishing well, we got a lot of stuff in our wishing well that was "dollar store crap" or stuff we already have and now I don't know what to do with. I really like the idea of the recipe card and people brining one ingredient. You could make a note in the invite that explains what…

      Maybe up the numbers of requested items you're already registered for? I mean really, is there such a thing as too many great towels or high count sheets? Or add little things you don't necessarily WANT but could certainly use, like a nice can opener or martini glasses? I'm a big fan of options when I go to registry shop.…

      I totally understand! I'm getting so stressed out I just want to throw in the towel at times. Just breath, I always just tell people I'm going a different direction if I don't like their idea. My mom has sent me so many pictures of 'stuff I should do for the wedding'...I have told her no so many times, she understands…
