Registry Revelations
Our dialogue/feelings about having a registry have come a long freakin’ way since we got engaged.
We started out saying that we wouldn’t have a registry, weren’t little grub monsters and didn’t need any kitchen crap anyways.
We then progressed to saying maybe, just maybe, we could have a honeymoon registry because we sure would like to travel on someone else’s dime.
The other day we pondered putting a few global knives and a fancy food processor on the list.
And then last weekend I found myself standing in Heath Ceramics wondering if our friends would really buy us twenty dollar coffee cups?
Is it even ethical to own a twenty dollar coffee cup?
They are beautiful and hand-crafted right here in California…
Anyway I guess in an effort to maintain my street cred with the indie bride crowd I’d hoped to have some instrinsic, knee-jerk revulsion towards the idea of a registry and well, I just don’t. I mean who doesn’t love presents? And as Lil’ Stripe, aka bridesmaid K, aka one wise married lady once told me, “They’re gonna get you presents anyway, do you really want doilies??”
So I guess we’re having a registry because we definitely do not want doilies. We might even want to add a charitable/marriage equality related registry, or would that just be overkill? What about you? Any registry revelations?
