How many items?

Allison, on March 5, 2018 at 8:16 PM Posted in Registry 0 12
I'm just curious, how many items are on your registry?

I have about 350 items. All my pots, pans, towels, etc are individual though no sets.

    How many guests are you having? What everyone told us when we registered was you should generally have 2 gift options per guest. So if you’re having 100 guests have 200 things on your registry. You would rather have too much than not enough, plus most places offer completion discounts!

    I was more just wondering what everyone has. I have more than enough lol we have 75 guests, but 2 showers and MIL wants to throw an after reception for family back home, which is higher than my guest list for the actual wedding. That's supposed to be applause only, but I know some people will still bring gifts.

    But I was curious about other people's. I feel like everyone has like 70 items and I'm in triple digits. Hahaha

    I did not register for that many gifts (guest list out number registry.) Both groom and I are in our early 30s. So we already own everthing we need. Only thing I wanted to register was some super nice shampoo and blow dryer. Lol but was told by friends that it was either inappropriate or awesome (depending on who I asked).

    I’m with you, Jamie. My husband is 42, and I am 34. We had a smaller registry with items we wanted to upgrade or things we would like but wouldn’t necessarily purchase for ourselves.

    488. We invited 184 guests and are also having a Couple Shower with 60 guests. I wanted to give them a lot of options as well as various price points.

    I read you're suppose to register for exactly how many people you invite to the wedding (ie: 150 guests =150+ items on your registry). Obviously, every couple's needs will be different, so I don't think it really matters, just include items with different price points! Don't be afraid to put something expensive on it either, you don't know who might all go in for that item!

    43 items. We already live together and we want mostly cash so we kept it small so we'd get what we want and need.

    32. It's so sad I'm thinking of not even publishing it. I didn't want a registry at all but a couple of people have asked. We're not having a shower though. We really don't need anything!
