Do you have weddings to go to this summer? Or better yet, are you getting married?? I’m actually going to be in my first wedding in July, and I’m the maid of honor no less! I couldn’t be more excited.
One of the things I was thrilled to give my friend a few pointers on during her wedding planning, was choosing kitchen items for her registry. It can be easy to go over the top when selecting your registry, choosing things you think you want but won’t necessarily need. And after planning a wedding, getting married, and going on your honeymoon, do you really want to come home to a bunch of pointless stuff? I’m going to say no. Because of that, I decided to pull together a list of my top twenty registry picks. You can access the full list over at Houzz this month. I’m a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to kitchen items, so I had to include your KitchenAid Stand Mixer and full size Cuisinart. But I also made some incredible finds- like this metallic rimmed dinnerware for entertaining and holidays, or this awesome stemware set from Riedel to fully complete your wine ware set in one gift!
I’d love to add a few more pieces to make this an even better resource for brides and grooms to be, so I’d love to hear your thoughts! Are you getting married and have any must have items that I’m missing? Have you found the perfect gift for your friend’s upcoming wedding? Leave a comment here and I’ll gladly at it to my list!

I think your list is perfect– definitely, definitely register for those big-ticket items because it’s shocking to learn how much people want to spend on you! (Like, uncomfortably shocking!) And once you receive the “splurges” or old-fashioned gifts, you’ll be surprised how often you use them. I have been! I also registered for knives– the exact kinds I wanted– and built up my blade collection.
Yeah multiple knives are a great idea. Love that!
I love your list! I wish I would have seen it last year when I was wedding planning! lol I was definitely one of those with a click happy registry
And those wedding pics are gorgeous!!!
Thank you, Jane! I’m sure you got beautiful gifts, and from the looks of your blog, I’m sure it was all put to good use

It may sound like a cliche that your wedding day, the one that cost you a fortune in time money and stress, should be the most memorable day of your life. Well in theory anyway it is a unique one-off event ideally only happening once in your lifetime. All dry wit aside it should be an extraordinary day. No matter if it is a small or a grandiose event the day should be quite remarkable.
It is my Dream Wedding in the future
