Planning a wedding, attending cake tastings, feeling like a princess in bridal outfits; what’s not to love about it all? But, there’s a whole different excitement and a new level of enjoyment in curating the ultimate wedding registry list, with a number of incredible items for you to start your married life with.
Traditionally, they really aren’t a South Asian wedding concept at all. The thought of sending your guests an e-list of wedding registry items was really quite alien, up until a couple of years ago. We’ve seen an influx of ‘no boxed gifts please’ on the invites, but the newer age of e-invites and wedding websites are making it a lot easier to enjoy your wedding knowing your loved ones have had an easy and efficient gifting experience.
PRIME!
Amazon Prime is a lifesaver as a newly-engaged couple. If you haven't already, be sure to sign up to it and save tons of time & money.
Much like everything else when it comes to wedding planning, not at all. If it’s something you don’t feel comfortable with, or your families and guests won’t understand; then there’s really no need.
A registry is useful for those couples who are comfortable sharing it. To be honest, your guests will bring you gifts for your wedding, to congratulate and bless you on your new journey; and it’s beneficial for them to give, and you to receive, something that you will truly want.
A recent Eternity UK Instagram survey showed that 94% of couples would prefer to tell their guests about giving them cash or using a gift registry for their wedding.
Nope! Most experts recommend having 1-3 wedding registries for different purposes: homeware, honeymoon, and charity.
Wedding websites or invitations are usually the best place to start. Additionally, if anyone messages you about a gift idea, send over your registry for ease.
After your wedding, the one thing you will value as much as your partner, is your sleep.
Asking for high-quality bedding is a great gift registry idea. It’s practical and ticks another thing off the homeware shopping list. We absolutely love the Lazy Linen look!

If you are always designated bartender, and never designated driver, then a cocktail set and bar cart is an absolute MUST!
One of our bartenders at The Tidy Bar also curates the most incredible cocktail shaking kits. A must-have addition.

Essential appliances that make meal preparation and cooking easier and more efficient. This could include a blender for making smoothies, a food processor for chopping vegetables, a coffee maker for morning brews, or a slow cooker for making soups and stews.

High-quality glassware that is made of crystal and has a sparkling and elegant appearance is perfect for any couple who loves hosting.
