Wedding Bells
Our in-house Registry Manager, Kathleen R., has been providing personalized, expert Registry guidance services to newlyweds for over 15 years.
We sat down with Kathleen to have her share some Registry and Pre-Wedding Advice:
When starting a Registry, where should the couple begin?
China is the center of your table setting. Select a pattern you love today and don’t worry if you will love it in 15-20 years.
We want you to love and be passionate about your pattern, making sure it reflects your unique taste. It is more important to use your china than store it and regret your choices down the road. If you love it, you will use it.
What should newlyweds consider when choosing Stemware?
Fine crystal stemware adds sparkle, fire and romance to your table. It is the finishing touch, so choose your crystal to complement your china and silver.
Mix and match to give flare to your table setting.
Stemware consists of:
* Goblets (use for red wine)
* White Wine Glasses
* Iced Beverage Glasses
* Champagne Flute
Why should people register for gifts?
Discussing money can be uncomfortable. But it’s important in selecting the items for your registry. We suggest offering gift options from $50 to $1,000. Some of your guests may decide to pool their resources for a big gift, while others may want to buy something smaller and more personal. By providing your guests with several options, you’ll be sure to make everyone happy.
Remember, this is the one time in your life when friends and family want to spend money on you. Everyone loves getting a great wedding gift for a friend. Think outside the box and enjoy your wish list.
