Registry Question

--Sorry-- I also posted it in 07 Brides section, but figured more people check this one first

People keep asking me when am I going to register. Do you girls think it is too early to start for a mid-2007 wedding?

Also, FI and I don't live together yet and have to register for EVERYTHING. It is so overwhelming.

This is probably a silly request, but does anyone have a compiled list of all the things we should register for?

You can register for basic stuff, but just be careful. Some things will be discontinued between now and a few months before your wedding.

You can get away with doing china, crystal, silver, luggage and large appliances. But, be careful with the small stuff!

Welcome!

Wherever you decide to register will give you a list of things that you should register for!

My FI & I registered for pretty much everything; he lived on his own previously but all his stuff is all gross and manly!

Register for what you need and whatever you don't get, you can purchase at a discounted price.

We registered at bed, bath and beyond & Macy's
a few months after we were engaged

Good luck!

We also registered a few months after we got engaged. Sometimes people get you engagement gifts, especially if you are having an engagement party.

My FI and I registered two weeks ago and our wedding date isn't till March 07. We were asked by FMIL to register so that family and friends could send gift --- My girlfriend did not register and she got so much barwares at her e-party and neither she or her fiance drinks! With that lesson in mind, I went ahead and register for most things except towels/bedding.

I am definitely going to register - I actually can't wait! But I am surpised when people are surpised that we haven't registered yet. I just feel like our wedding/my shower are so far away.

fortunoff will give you a comprehensive list of what you'll need -- plus a couple of things you probably don't! But I love that store and I'm so happy I registered there.

It's never to early to register -- people probably want to buy you gifts and don't know where to go. I say go sign up -- you can always add/delete online.

Its fun to scan!!!
