25 Must-Have Wedding Registry Ideas To Add To Your Wish List
Give people a better idea of what you need.
A wedding registry is the ultimate wish list. It's an organized list of all the gifts you really want guests to get for you for your wedding.
Of course, it's easy to go overboard when coming up with wedding registry ideas, but avoid the temptation! It's important to keep your guest's budgets in mind, and choose items that are low-, medium-, and high-end so there's a variety of price points to choose from.
While your parents may choose to get you something more expensive, someone else may go for something more affordable. It's fun to go window shopping on the internet and choose all the items meant to live in your future home, other than you and your hubby, of course! Here are some of our favorites.

Purple’s Smart Comfort Grid™ adapts to the human body and stays cool for superior, personalized comfort and better sleep. Additionally, the zero motion-transfer technology means that if your partner moves, you’ll feel nothing, ensuring the best sleep to make your marriage last.
