I'm registered at BBB and Macy's. Macy's has a great rewards program. I can't wait to hopefully get a kitchen aid mixer and a soda stream. Just stalked my registry and 2 items were purchased whooohoo I bet it was mom lol

We registered at macys because of the rewards program and that they always have sales and coupons. The thing I'm most excited to use is the shark steam mop we got because we have all wood floors and it will make life a lot easier. Also, I've got to say I love my kitchen aid mixer, not that I've used that yet either.
We also did a honeymoon registry but we didn't receive as many gifts for that as expected. If you go that route you should basically put nothing on your regular registry. We had less then 70 items and invited over 90 people to the shower. We ended up only getting $450 towards the honeymoon and all but 6 things were bought off the registry.

We registered at BBB and Kohls. I would definitely recommend BBB, but not Kohls. Kohls messed up with our registry several times and said we got things we didn't and so on and so forth.
The best things we got were the shark steam mop, hand and stand mixers, our dishes, and new flatware!

BBB seems to be the gold standard due to their wide range of prices and their customer service. Didnt register at Macy's, don't know why. If Fortunoff's was still open, I would have registered there. I dont cook at all, so we just registered bed and bath stuff. We will have enough sheets and towels for the next 10 years!

This! BBB was great. Kohls is a pain in the @ss. It would say 2 of the same items sometimes and then things it said were fulfilled we actually recieved doubles of. The only good thing about kohls is that you get back a gift card after the wedding for 10% the amount spent on your registry.
My favorite items were my kitchenaid mixer and vera wang bedding and FHs was a soda stream soda maker!

I registered at BB&B and Target. But most items I registered for are on the BB&B registry. I love that store plus they always have the 20% off coupons which is good. I didn't get many items purchased from my registry though. Lots of ppl gave me gift cards. Also, a lot of ppl didn't come to me shower either. But I was very happy to receive our toasting flutes which we wanted for the wedding. They are really beautiful. I was also happy to get a purple bedding set I really wanted!

I registered at Macys and BBB. BBB's prices are cheaper than Macys for the same items. I can't wait to get my bedding, my down comforter, my slow cooker and George foreman grill and some cookbooks. I hate cooking the same stuff over and over again.

We registered at BBB, had a wishlist at Anthropologie, and a registry with our travel agent for our Honeymoon. If you live together and have a lot of things already, the honeymoon registry is such a great help. I think the most important things you can register for would be more expensive items you wouldn't normally buy on your own. You can always buy yourself a toaster or a baking sheet. Things like pots and pans, knife set, kitchenaid mixer, cuisinart food processor, were all things I asked for that cost a little more. BBB I think is the best place to go bc of the prices and coupons. The woman who helped me at BBB in Westbury was fabulous. We went to Macys in Manhasset and we ended up not registering bc the woman was so unhelpful.

1. Bed Bath & Beyond (I originally didn't want to register here, FH did, and he was right - they have been super easy to work with!), Bloomingdales (amazing!) and Williams & Sonoma (also great, I just love their selection!)
2. A garment steamer - I added it to my registry at the last minute and it is amazing! I would also highly recommend Le Creuset cookware, especially their grill pan
