Registering!!

Ok, so I know most of you reading this are thinking, 

"yeah yeah, registering is old news, everyone does it blah blah blah."  

But I have to say, it was so much fun!!!  

I registered online first at Crate and Barrel because I was afraid I would be so overwhelmed in the store.  I really liked doing it online first.  I was able to take my time and research things on the internet before deciding.  That scanner is just too damn tempting!  When I went to the actual store today I wanted to scan EVERYTHING!

Here are the plates I chose for our every day...

My mom came with me today to Bed Bath and Beyond to register for our china.  I deliberated over whether or not to do this for days.  I had a lot of thoughts leaning away from registering for china, but the more married girls I talked to, the more I thought I would regret not having it down the road.  I found a pattern I really love:
Very simple and classic.  I love it.  Although my mom and I were discussing how old fashioned and RIDICULOUS it seems to include a tea cup and saucer in the sets.  I would much rather have a soup bowl or a low bowl.  Who uses cups and saucers anymore??

Here are the crystal wine goblets.  I love them as well, and hope we get some of them!
SO, all in all a very fun day wedding wise.  It is so much fun to finally do all of the things I have been dreaming of for so long.  I love being engaged!!!!

Very cute! I love my china but use it SOOOO much more because it can go in the dishwasher.

I love all your choices!! Very pretty! I love my china too and actually used it for the first time at Christmas and we have been married for 4 years (not that long) but that just makes it so special to have something to use every once in a while!! :) It is so much fun!!
