If you love cooking or baking Williams Sonoma is the store for you. I loveee baking so that was the first place we registered. They have an awesome selection of things.

I'm also registered at BBB and Fortunoff. So much to choose from. Have Fun!!!

Thanks!! FH laughs that I don't cook...which I don't, but since starting South Beach that all I have been doing. However, I love to bake and I love all things baking and cooking And I esp. love Williams-Sonoma!!

Re: Registering...

I only registered at Fortunoff. The people were very helpful, but I would recommend not going on a Saturday or Sunday.
I went with only my FI, but there were other brides who bought sisters, mothers and grandmas. This made the China and crystals areas very crowded and we had to wait to consultant with an associate. We went back on a Monday night and had the associates complete attention.
Good Luck!

We registered at BBB and so far it has been a great experience. I was originally registered at Fortunoff but found that it was always so crowded and the selection was more limited. BBB just added China so now they have everything.

Re: Registering...

We're doing Fortunoff for our china and flatwear, Macy's for other kitchen stuff and other stuff like bedding, etc.

Re: Registering...

BBB has the best return policy. They give you cash back for returning items that you registered for, but decided you don't want. I think they allow you to return items up to 2 years after your wedding. They also have the 20% coupons which is great for people to use. They also send you a $25 or $50 gift certificate if your name is mentioned by another couple who starts a registry at BBB.

Fortunoff is good, except do not register for linens yet because those change.... My recommendation is to preregister online because then all you have to do it go up to the registry desk and get the gun... it is 100X easier

Totally! Plus don't make the mistake that we did and try to register on a day that they are holding a Bridal Expo. Wayyyy to overwhelming!

Re: Registering...

You can maybe knock Bed,Bath and Beyond and Fortunoffs in one day if you go to the stores in/by the Source Mall. It was convenient for us. (We did need WAY more than A day though! )
