Need help determining which kitchen items you should include in your registry? Perhaps you or your fiance’ have some old beat up pots and pans that are really better at burning than cooking your food? Your wedding registry is a great time to take stock of what new kitchen items you could use in your newlywed kitchen. Kim O’Donnel of A Mighty Appetite wrote tips on what to consider when combining kitchens and a few brides provided their suggestions as well.
My husband and I really love our set of grill tools from Williams-Sonoma, as well as the long grill mitt. Other items we can’t live without include our mini prep from Cuisinart and the bar tools, and various bar glassware for his dream bar.
Comment below on what you think are the perfect kitchen items to register for.

Continued from our previous post on ‘Contributing Grooms’, some other ways your Groom can contribute include:
- Help create the guest list
- Assist with the registry (there are alot of things your guy might love especially with the unique registries available)
- Obtain the marriage license (check your state’s/county’s marriage license requirements; sometimes only one party need be present)
- Choose gifts for his attendants
- Oversee RSVPs
* Be sure to give your husband-to-be the opportunity to be involved in the planning process. Although many Groom’s say “It’s what she (the bride) wants”, you might be surprised at how much they do want to be involved in certain aspects of your wedding planning.
