Wedding registry. What was your most expensive item purchased?

We have only received gifts from my shower but the most expensive thing purchased was our food processor at $180, (with a $50 gift card to a grocery store so we can "Get food to process!" so that gift totaled around $230). We also received our King size bed set which was around $150. So Yes, people will purchase big items, (multiple people usually go in on them).

I dont know if I would put it on two different places though. Then you might get two of them?

My most expensive was the KitchenAid mixer ($450), but about 5 people went in on it for my Bridal Shower gift. Aside from that, the most expensive gift was a drink server thing that was $115.

We had a friend buy us $500 worth of honeymoon registry activities. We were in shock...and are incredibly thankful.

$500 Dyson vacuum from FMIL/FFIL. My grandparents also got us a $350 kitchenaid mixer.

The most expensive item from a non-family member was probably 3 places settings of china at $100 a piece...

i wouldn't put the same item at 2 separate locations

I wouldn't register for the same thing twice, unless you really want 2 of them. The most expensive thing we've gotten is our 2 suitcases, the hosts of my first shower went in on them together. I was super floored. We also got our "no one will buy us this relatively impractical we'd never buy this but Emmy thinks it is the prettiest thing ever" expensive gift, Nambe kitchen utensil holder

Where was it that you registered? Just curious!

I registered last week and was feeling super guilty about the expensive stuff but then I thought when I'm giving a gift I try to go in with someone because I know I would rather have the vacuum, mixer, etc. than a serving dish or cake plate. Also, some people will just get you a gift card in their price point knowing that you can put that toward one of the big ticket items. People always ask my mom what I want/need so I gave her the 5 top things (knives #1!!) I definitely want and she can let that information fall where it may haha. I swear I'm not as bitchy or gift grabby as this post sounds.

I wouldn't register for the same thing at 2 places.

The most expensive cash gift was $500 and the most expensive item registry was $200 (which was the highest priced item on there)

I think it was a $300 pet vacuum...

My in-laws purchased my husband and I a 6 qt. KitchenAid mixer. Those are $450 w/o coupons. We actually received a lot of really nice, thoughtful gifts that couldn't have been cheap.

The man who made my engagement and wedding bands (a family friend), made me a pair of diamond and pearl earrings as my wedding gift. We also received crystal wine stoppers, a silver wine bottle opener, some really cool custom wooden name placards, and a gorgeous cutting board that is in the shape of Michigan, among other things.

I'm not sure how much some of those things cost, but by the quality alone, I would say they're up there near the KitchenAid mixer.

500 bucks cold hard cash. Thank God.

The most expensive item purchased was really multiple of the same item. We asked for 8 place settings of china and my FMIL bought ALL 8! Over $600 right there. One was delivered with a smashed plate inside so I had to return it and order a new one yesterday I won't tell her unless my FH already did.

Someone bought us a $250 scotch decanter and $100 glasses. They are a family friend (not even family!) and I was shocked. The range is generosity of gifts is pretty staggering.

On our registry- Dyson animal vac....it's wonderous w/ two huskies.

Not on- money.

We had one friend buy all of our bedding which was really expensive. Also had our Kitchen Aid, a Le Creuset french oven and knife set all purchased.

$150 for my registry.

Emmy- I LOVE that utensil holder!

Monetary- FMIL gifted us $600 in gift cards. Item-FH's 3 cousins chipped in to get us a $250 juicer.

Our Dyson vacuum. It was like $600-something. Although it was from FH's parents so I don't know if that entirely counts, but it counts. And it's a fabulous vacuum!

This motivated me to put a le creusent enameled cast iron dutchoven on my registry....they run about $300 a piece. Are highest priced item was sent early and that was a set of pots and pans ~$200
