 Unique Registry Ideas
It’s about four to six months from your wedding date, and the time has come to begin your gift registry. But what if you don’t want or need traditional household goods, such as a full set of fancy china, silverware and glassware? You’re in luck! Today’s brides and grooms demand variety, and to accommodate them, there are many options for unique registries that allow couples to receive exactly what they really need and want.
Although you still may want to consider choosing some kitchenware and household items. This is a great opportunity to receive some fun things you might not necessarily buy for yourself, like a Panini press or a fancy espresso machine. Here are some out-of-the-box options for gift wish lists.
Charity
Many couples are interested in giving back to society, and there are myriad opportunities available to make this an easy gift-giving option for their guests. Websites through which you can coordinate an online charity are springing up all over the place. You can either donate a portion of the amount guests spend at different stores or set up to donate 100% to the charity of your choice.
Local Boutiques
In addition to the popular national chains, consider creating a wish list at a local boutique or small chain store. These types of stores, found in many of the burgeoning small towns in the Atlanta area, offer unique and handcrafted items so your home can be different from all your friends’ homes.
Home Improvement
The big home store chains have offered in-store and online gift registries for several years. This is a great option for couples who have bought or are buying a home. It also makes shopping more fun for the groom!
Honeymoon
Most travel websites and some agencies offer honeymoon registries, where guests can donate money to go toward the couple’s trip. This is a great idea that can allow you to have the trip of a lifetime.
