registry - how much is too much (qty on your list)
Original post by nifheim
Price wise I THINK have good mix.
I have items that range from $1.99-$20 (about 35% of the list)
Items that range from $20-$60 (about 50%)
Some things that are pricy items (11 items exact - 15% of the list) that are $120-300.
My thing is I have a lot of stuff on our registry because FH and I are moving in together for the first time and we have nothing good from both of our apartments. We have junk that has been purchased at many discount stores or passed down items.
I am just wondering by me putting a lot of stuff on the two registries i have it looks like i am crying for it?
I counted 157 items total (this counts 8 place settings, 5 towels, etc) and we are inviting about 147 people to the wedding but only 30-35 people are being invited to the shower. We have a few OOT guests that I know will bring a present to the wedding which I have no problem since I really want this stuff.
So what do you think? Am i being unfair with the qty?

Re: registry - how much is too much (qty on your list)
You need to add more. My minimum to my wedding is 175 and I need to register for over 200 items. Don't ever feel guilty about putting something expensive on your registry. There may be a group of friends that want to pitch in and buy it together. Those are the best surprises Even though you only invite a limited number of people to your shower doesn't mean they are the only ones that will buy you a gift.
