1. Items for the happy couple home

Items for the home are a classic choice for a wedding registry. You might think this isn’t the most romantic choice in the world, but think again!

Think of essential elements such as: 

• quality kitchen utensils, 
• elegant tableware, 
• cutlery, 
• wine glasses, 
• top-quality pots and pans, 
• and modern appliances to make daily life easier at home.

2. Household linen

To complete your home even further, think of linens as well. This, too, is an essentia of wedding registry gifts, one that lovers and brides-to-be will be able to cherish for many years to come:

• soft, luxurious linens, 
• fluffy towels and warm blankets can turn your home into a cozy nest;
• Be sure to include a variety of high-quality linens on your list;
• including bedding sets, 
• towels, 
• tablecloths 
• and decorative cushions.

3. Decorative elements

Weddings are also sometimes a symbol of a new life for several people, and therefore of a potential move that’s on the horizon. For this, you’ll need new decorating elements!

Give your home a personal touch by including decorative elements on your wedding registry: 

• paintings, 
• mirrors, 
• vases, 
• photo frames 
• and scented candles are excellent options for adding a touch of elegance and style to your home.

4. Outdoor equipment

If you love spending time outdoors, and especially if you’re lucky enough to own a garden, then you shouldn’t hesitate to include a few related ideas in your wedding registry! 

Consider including outdoor equipment such as: 

• garden furniture, 
• a barbecue, 
• hammocks, 
• solar lanterns 
• or even a quality camping tent for your outdoor escapades.

5. A share in your honeymoon!

When it comes to weddings, of course, there’s the Honeymoon. Whether extravagant or not. Whether it’s far away or not, you must include your honeymoon on your wedding registry! 

You can, of course, ask for collective participation in the form of an online kitty, for example. This online kitty can be created in just 2 minutes with Tiing.We have a page specially dedicated to honeymoon kitchens, below:

It’s also the perfect way to quickly get the money back into your account at the end of the kitty, and quickly book your trip! Greece, the Bahamas, a roadtrip in the USA, Japan, the Philippines, Colombia…!

6. Couple experiences!

Choose intangible gifts!

Life isn’t all material after all, is it? So don’t hesitate to include in this wedding registry experiences to live and not just “collect at home”!

Think of: 

• cooking classes, 
• spa sessions, 
• tickets for shows 
• or sporting activities, to create memorable moments as a couple.

7. Works of art

You might not think about it at first, but this is a gift that can be very personal.

For art-loving couples, an original work of art can be a very special gift. 

Choose a piece that has special meaning for the bride and groom, and that could be made by an artist with a style that will appeal to the lovers.
