Registering for wedding gifts is arguably one of the most enjoyable aspects of wedding planning. There’s something truly joyous about sitting down with your fiance and selecting presents for yourself, knowing they’ll form part of your future. Some couples don’t yet live together and will use this process to fill out their first home together. Other couples will have been living together for years already and want more alternative gifts, such as experience vouchers or honeymoon money. But what’s important is that you put some time and energy into this process. After all, even though the thought counts, you don’t need 7 different toasters and 4 kettles. Here’s our guide on the best places to register for wedding gifts.
Register for gifts online
What kind of gifts can you ask for? It’s entirely up to you! Here are some ideas.
Household items like clocks, decor, plates or glasses
Vouchers for shops
Restaurant or day out vouchers
Honeymoon cash
Charity donation
Tech
Our list will not be in any particular order, each of these sites have their own benefits and can support your wedding in different ways.
The Wedding Shop
The Wedding Shop is a classic choice for any wedding registry. They allow you to build your list online or to visit their showrooms and have an in-person appointment should that be more your style. With access to hundreds of the world's leading brands, the biggest issue with The Wedding Shop is narrowing down your choices to a final, complete wedding registry. We recommend them highly due to their sheer amount of choice and the style and quality of the products that they offer as well as the ease of use.
What’s more, they’re currently offering free UK delivery and a 10% lifetime discount, which could mean you get a lot more value from your gifts.
Prezola
Prezola is interesting in that it has a focus not just on gifts but on experiences or saving goals such as a house deposit. After all, whilst some of us may require furniture and living appliances, others already have those things and would prefer a helping hand with a house deposit or the chance to learn a new skill. We recommend Prezola not just for their interesting take on a wedding registry, but because they’re also the cheapest registry that we’ve looked at. Something which most newlyweds will appreciate.
Buy our Honeymoon
Another unique take on the wedding registry, Buy our Honeymoon focuses on making your honeymoon the best experience possible. Your guests can help contribute towards the total honeymoon fund, leaving you and your partner to pick and choose how you’d most like to spend your honeymoon together. For many couples, the honeymoon will be an unforgettable experience, but it isn’t always the first consideration when it comes to a wedding budget. Buy our Honeymoon bypasses that worry and lets you focus on what matters, spending time with your new life partner.
Amazon Wish List
Whilst Amazon wish list isn’t technically a wedding registry list, it can certainly be used as one. Anyone can create a wish list on Amazon with various items they’d like and others can order it for them. What’s more, there’s a universal wish list function allowing your guests to purchase items you’ve chosen from any website.
High Trenhouse
Once you’ve chosen a wedding registry list, you’ll probably be thinking about your wedding venue next. High Trenhouse could be the perfect location for you. Situated in the stunning Yorkshire Dales, our 21 bedroom farmhouse comes equipped with two fully stocked bars, a kitchen, sauna and some of the most beautiful scenery you can find in the UK. What’s more, we’re fully licensed to run your event with as many as 50 guests.
