Good morning brides! Thank you again Mara for picking me to be this week's Bride! I hope everyone had an outstanding weekend!!
Well I just spent wayy more money than my budget allowed for online shopping this weekend (Victorias Secret Sale anyone?) And thus let's talk registry...
1. What do you want off your registry more than anything else? 2. Have you gotten anything off the registry yet, and what have you been most excited about? 3. Is there anything on the registry you and FH couldn't agree on? Or that the other didn't want?[/B

Re: ~*~*QOTD Monday 17 Jan*~*~
1. I'm actually excited for everything on the registry, I love to cook and I can't wait to get new stuff, and I can't wait for all the servingware stuff we got so I can show off at dinner parties. But if there is one thing I could pick right now to have it would probably be the spice rack. I've been wanting one for so long, and since I cook all the time all the little bottles of spices stashed everywhere is really obnoxious. The one we picked out will look really cute on the counter.
2. We got our Kerig Super amazing coffeemaker as our first gift off the registry and I don't think I could have been more excited! That thing is amazing and FH uses it every morning before work and he never even used to drink coffee!!
3. I really wanted to put a vacuum cleaner on the registry and he said he didn't want to get something like that as a gift. I think I may sneak a Dyson on there anyway because I'm the one that cleans the house! We also couldn't agree on flatware, and he picked out a really ugly set and was so excited about it I couldn't break his heart. I figured since no one will be buying us that for awhile I kept it on there and then switched it out once he forgot about it.

1. What do you want off your registry more than anything else?
We both love wine. We both can not wait to hopefully get our wine frig!
2. Have you gotten anything off the registry yet, and what have you been most excited about?
We have gotten some things off our registry and so far I have been the most excited about our cheese board with little knives built in (we love cheese. FH did not eat anything but cheese for the first 10 years of his life....haha)
3. Is there anything on the registry you and FH couldn't agree on? Or that the other didn't want?[/B
Not really. I think we are both very go with the flow type people so neither of us really had any strong opinions about it.

[B}1. What do you want off your registry more than anything else? We haven't registered yet but I would definitely have to say my every day dishes

3. Is there anything on the registry you and FH couldn't agree on? Or that the other didn't want? Can't answer this one yet..

I really want a fondue pot! I LOVE fondue!!
2. Have you gotten anything off the registry yet, and what have you been most excited about?
Ive actually gotten a lot of engagement gifts off my registry .. so far my fave is my margaritaville frozen concoction maker! that thing is a BEAST and makes really delic frozen drinks!
3. Is there anything on the registry you and FH couldn't agree on? Or that the other didn't want?
Registering for fine china... I thought it was stupid because we registered when we first got engaged bc we got nagged to death my FILs and no one was going to buy it for our engagement...plus both of our families have GORGEOUS china they want to give us!

We haven't registered yet and I don't think FH is all that excited to do it! We both still live at home so we will need everything! I'm thinking about starting a registery at BBB.

Congratulations BOTW
1. What do you want off your registry more than anything else?
I haven't registered for this yet, but I want a really beautiful bedroom set with all the matching pretty pillows and blankets.
2. Have you gotten anything off the registry yet, and what have you been most excited about?
Yes, we received plenty of gifts for our e-party and so far we have used the steamer the most (it cuts down trips I take to the dry cleaners), but I also love my crock pot!
3. Is there anything on the registry you and FH couldn't agree on? Or that the other didn't want?
At first we couldn't agree on a vacuum, I wanted a stand up vacuum and he wanted the Roomba (I think that is what it's called)... anyway we registered for the one he wanted but I think I am going to change it, hehehe

We haven't registered yet so I can't answer the questions. All I can say is that I'm really not looking forward to registering. I'm a reluctant and indecisive shopper on a good day. Plus we'll be moving back to the US a few months after the wedding, to an unknown city, for an unknown period of time. Makes it hard to plan ahead for the things we'll need.
I feel you on this! After this summer we're changing the address on the registry to my parents house, and I asked if they will store everything until we come back from whereever we'll be. We only registered for mostly kitchen stuff, and homewares in neutral colors (lamps, clocks, decorative stuff). Since we'll be renting for awhile, the only thing I didn't like doing was towels and stuff for a bathroom, because who knows what the colors will be like.

Re: ~*~*QOTD Monday 17 Jan*~*~
I'm excited about everything that is on my registry. It is so nice to know that everything on there will be for FH and Me only, never been used before.
I got a lot of gifts off my registry for our e-party. I was most excited to open the 12 table settings of china (with bowls) that FH's parents bought for us! I never saw myself as a china person but now that I have it I want to use it all the time.
FH is very picky about choosing the best quality items. We haven't disagreed but if any one sees a picky groom at BBB it might be me!!
