The best part of wedding planning so far has been daydreaming about things for our house. RC and I started our wedding registries and the entire time we kept saying “oh man that would be awesome to have now”.. not about typical registry stuff like flatware and pots and pans but more about stuff to finish our house- pillows, towels, curtains, etc.
I actually didn’t love registering as much as I thought. I found it extremely overwhelming and a HUGE commitment. Like, these are the forks we will be eating off of for the rest of our lives. I know I know, marriage it a commitment too but I got to date some other dudes before I found RC. I can’t take home some flatware, go to dinner with it and then never talk to it again and move on to the next set. That’s not the case here! What if the flatware we chose is terrible?! It’s not exactly inexpensive or easy to return once used.
1. I have nowhere to put it.
2. It’s expensive and we NEED everyday stuff.
3. When Kate decides to come over for dinner I will inevitably buy brand new stuff for that dinner, even if I have some sitting in my attic.
So we decided to register for nicer plates. Not every day plates.. nice ionlytakethemoutfordinnerparties plates, but not china. We have white plates we got as a house warming gift last year that are PERFECT for everyday use so these new plates will be for the dinner parties, thanksgiving, etc. Does that make sense? We found them at Pottery Barn, RC was pumped!
We also registered at Bed Bath and Beyond and Crate & Barrel. We spent almost two hours at each place and at one point someone disappeared and I found him like this…
I took this as it was time to go. I then spent a few hours fixing the registries online.
