Printfresh Bridal Registry Picks
Congrats- you’re engaged! Hopefully you’re sipping champagne and dreaming up honeymoon destinations (be sure to check out our travel recommendations). There’s so much to look forward to, but creating your wedding registry is not an easy task. Deciding what you’re going to love for the long haul can be time consuming, so we’ve curated a Printfresh-approved list of wedding registry items that won’t end up in the donate pile a few years from now.

2. China
Not a staple of contemporary registries, but we’d like to see that change! First, ask around - if a grandmother or one of your moms has a set to pass on, let them know that’s something you’d treasure. For the ultimate splurge - this Scully&Scully set is amazing. Alternatively, you can find amazing vintage sets on Etsy or Ebay to add to your online registry (like this Noritake fine bone china set).
Price: $217 - $1,602
3. KitchenAid Stand Mixer
It’s not just for bakers - with tons of attachments you can make things like ice cream, homemade butter, whipped cream, fresh pasta and more. It’s designed to last a lifetime and have we mentioned the colors!?
Price: $299.99+
4. Champagne Coupes
There is something oh-so-grown-up about a “special occasion” set of champagne coupes. The silhouette is timeless and they double as decor when not in use. Lots of retailers offer amazing new but vintage-inspired sets, like these beauties from William Sonoma, or this more classic Waterford set. For something more whimsical - Amy’s faves are by Estelle Colored Glass.
Price: $16.95 - $340
5. Fancy Chip ‘n Dip
“It’s a chip ‘n dip - we got two!”
Even if you’re not a fan of Mad Men’s Pete Campbell, you’ll be just as excited about this fun and surprisingly functional registry item. We love these recycled bamboo ones or this one handmade in Mexico.
Price: $39 - $85
6. A Cake Knife Server
Extravagant? Yes. But go ahead - add a fancy cake knife to your registry. If it’s used on your wedding day, it will bring back happy memories every time you use it.
Price: $33.99
7. Coffee or Espresso Maker
File this under expensive, but very worth it. For drip coffee, consider the Moccamaster (with amazing color options over at Food52). For espresso, your choices are endless - streamline your research with video reviews from a true coffee nerd like James Hoffman. We love this one at the office - and use it all the time, it’s easy to use and makes the prefect latte.
Price: $329 - $699.95
The Bridal Edit
8. High Quality Robes or Luxury Pajamas
It is truly a luxury to have a special set of pajamas or robes for women that makes you feel like you just woke up on vacation.
Price: $54 - $148
