Registering for our wedding gifts was definitely fun but actually more stressful than you would think. At first, I thought I had all of the kitchen things I would need. I had been living in an apartment by myself for 2, going on 3 years before being married and had accumulated plenty of things. But...you can always have more. As for decorations and other things to fill our home, it was difficult to find things that matched both mine and my husband's personality {at first} until we got the hang of it. We were blessed to get so many wonderful things and we have used nearly everything we have received so far! I definitely have my top favorites that I feel get used every day. Of course, you may find your own favorites, but if you feel stuck and can't decide what you think you would need, this may be helpful.
1. NutriBullet: slightly unconventional, but for quick breakfasts for my husband going off to school in the morning and my early work days, I use this every day, without fail. Even on weekends. It doesn't get boring either because we can change up the type of smoothie daily.
2. Electric Tea Pot: this makes cooking faster {for pasta, etc.} and for drinking tea. Favorite tea lately is Spiced Chai {decaffeinated} and Vanilla Honey Chamomile.
3. Pyrex Bake and Take: the lids snap on and you can store whatever you made right in the fridge. Saves time and dishes. I've made casseroles, enchiladas, zucchini and squash, potatoes, and more in these.
Our Electric Tea Pot turns blue when it is "on" and automatically turns off!
4. Bocci Ball Set: so I may have lied. We definitely do not use these every day. But, we wanted to register for something fun. And whenever we hang out with friends {or at least this summer when we went to a nearby park on our Sunday Funday's} we would bring this set! So much fun and we will definitely be using this for years to come! It came in a carrying case so it's easy to travel with and we can take it camping, over to a backyard party, park, etc. We also registered for croquet and corn hole and are equally as excited to play!
5. Electric Skillet: also used multiple times a week, this makes cooking bacon and pancakes SO easy. I never used one growing up, but my husband swears by it. He also claims we can easily take this on camping trips when we go {hopefully at the end of October}!

Happy Shopping!
