Unique Wedding Registry Items You'll Love | What should I add to my wedding registry?

Sponsored with love by De’Longhi

I’m sure you’ve heard all about the basics of your wedding registry - kitchen appliances, formal dining sets, bedding, towels and all of the “stuff” you’re going to need for your new home together. But because so many couples already have their own homes before they get married and thus, have no need to register for all of the “normal” wedding registry items, just know that you can register for other items too!

So what should you register for if you already have all of the home basics?

My advice is to think about items that you want that you will use often -- Items that will be fun for the both of you and will bring endless memories for years to come. And we’ve got three fun ideas to help you start thinking outside of the box for uncommon wedding registry items that you’ll love.

De’Lhonghi Livenza All Day Grill

The De’Longhi Livenza All Day Grill which can be added to your Bloomingdales wedding registry is the perfect gift. Whether you live in a small apartment or a large home with a backyard, it’s the perfect kitchen accessory that will totally change your life. From paninis to grilling burgers and hot dogs to cooking delicious dinners on a whim, it’s definitely the kind of wedding gift that’ll you’ll get plenty of use out of.

One of the best parts? It’s dishwasher safe, unlike most other indoor grilling appliances out there. And that means more time spent with your new spouse...just saying.

Your Honeymoon

Honeymoon registries are always a great idea because they’re an expense you’re going to have after the wedding and of course, who doesn’t love to travel? There are lots of ways for your guests to help make your first destination as husband and wife a blast -- simple dollar amount gifts, sending you on excursions at your destinations or even offering to pay for the taxi rides around the island. And it’s fun for guests to be help make your experience together one you will never forget!

Bedroom Bedding + Decor

I know, I know. It seems so simple but bedding can get expensive. Whether you live together already or will be combining households, one of my absolute favorite upgrades is our bedroom. And with your new life together, it’s the perfect chance to start the decorating as a team and to create a comfy, homey spot that the both of you love. Because you know, you will be spending lots of time in there so you’ll want it to be a room that both of you love!

Charity

If you want your guests to have the chance to help you make a difference, then charity registries are always a great option. Savings lives or helping make someone’s life better -- the gift of happiness -- is always a unique option to offer your guests too!

So when it comes time to start your wedding registry, just remember that you don’t have to go traditional. If you’re never going to use that fancy china, then leave it off your list. Choose the items you want and will actually enjoy using together for years to come.
