Five Essential Wedding Gift List Items
Think you have it all…think again!
Making decisions about what to include on your wedding gift registry can be daunting, so we have asked Karaline from Wedding List Co to list her top 5 essential wedding gift list items.
Nice Glasses
Wine tastes so much better from a well designed glass. And if its crystal…even better. These days crystal does not have to be cut or overly designed, it can be simple and elegant like the Riedel Vinum range. Each glass has been designed to perfectly suit varieties of wine, so if you favour a chardonnay or Chablis, they have the glass to match.
Guests love to give stemware as a gift and it is usually one of the first things to be purchased off a registry. Certainly I have never seen Champagne Flutes left on a list unpurchased. I think it’s because every guest appreciates how nice it is to have lovely glasses for special occasions, and Champagne is always for special occasions so there will be memories around them.
Good Cookware
Call it the Masterchef phenomenon but kitchenware is king in bridal registries at the moment. Whether it’s some great quality pots and pans, or a good set of knives. Every couple will always have the basics, but if they enjoy cooking they will appreciate the difference a Swiss Diamond frypan and Wusthof Knife will make to the experience.
All our cookware and knife brands come with lifetime warranties and most are up to 50% off at any time, so there’s no excuse for guests not to spoil you with them.
Bed Linen
You know what its like to sleep in a luxurious bed at a top hotel? Every night can be like that in your new marital home with beautiful Egyptian quality sheets. Even if you don’t own your home, classic high thread count white sheets will go with every room and can be dressed up or down with coloured throws and cushions.
Again, there are guests who seem to love to give linen because when registered these rarely go unpurchased. Our most popular are from W Home as they are normally only made for leading hotels so you can’t get them anywhere else.
Something Unique
There will always be guests who would rather buy you something unique. They don’t want to be remembered for what they consider to be ho-hum homewares. For these guests you should have some fun and register something you may never otherwise buy yourself, and something you really lust after.
Dreaming of a new Armchair to start you off in style? We have partnered exclusively with leading furniture retailer Coco Republic to offer their luxurious furniture and homewares.
Looking for a gift that truly lasts a lifetime? Art Vouchers can be registered to use at a selection of galleries across Australia.
Hoping to spend romantic evenings sailing? Why not register RedBalloon Experience vouchers for sailing lessons.
All of these are sure to tickle the fancy of your more adventurous guests.
Something for the Boys
Even though weddings seem to be all about the bride, your registry shouldn’t be. These are gifts you will share and use together. So have fun with it and make sure the groom is involved in the choosing.
To keep him interested we have a huge department just made for the boys – Boys Toys. And toys there are…from Tivoli Audio Radios, Nintendo wii consoles, to an Aston Martin…if this doesn’t get him engaged (excuse the pun), nothing will!
