It's a slow night and I'm waiting for Greg to get home from rehearsal with our food.
Thinking about wedding presents as we come up to the bridal shower (later this month) and updating my registries.
I know in the past that it was mostly that people had only one registry, for all their items, like a Macy's or similar. But now it seems like the smaller specialty stores get some business, along with still...a Macy's or similar.
How many places are you registering with...? Some people seem to be older fashioned, and exclaim when I say 3. But what's wrong with spreading it out? One store doesn't have everything I want. It's not like I expect a present from each store for each person (ooh!)...anyway...how many places and if you are more than one...have you gotten any surprised looks when you tell people?
BTW our stores are Williams Sonoma (only a few items I couldn't find elsewhere); Crate and Barrel (75% of the items), and Pottery Barn (20%).
