What to ask for on wedding registry?

Get some tools - a cordless drill, a hammer, screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, etc and a tool box to put everything in.

Crock pot!! That is a life saver!! This is a must!!

CORKSCREW!!!!!

Here are a few things I somehow keep.ending up without:

+cookie sheets

+pizza cutter

+strainer/ colander

+change of sheets for laundry day

+whisk

+plastic spatula for scraping batter from a bowl

+potholders

+lids for every size pot/pan

+GIANT skillet for larger dinners

+large pot for the same reason

+set of mixing bowls in every size (or at least a few that are larger than a cereal bowl- I use them all the time!)

Miscellaneous items:

+paper shredder (I get a lot of credit card offers)

+filing system for important documents

Broom and dust pan, swiffer/vacuum depending on your type of floor, hamper, throw blankets (I always like one to snuggle with in my living room), bottle opener/corkscrew, ice cube trays if they don't come with your fridge, a GOOD set of oven mitts, lamps, rings for your shower curtain, trash cans (kitchen, bathrooms), little kitchen things (like chip clips).

I would take the scanner gun around target! Make sure you have a vacuum and bathroom accessories!

Maybe even Lamps! My apartment was SO DARK when we first moved in until we bought like 3 lamps

@OliviaP yes they are pricey, and completion discounts after the wedding date are awesome! For my first wedding I registered for a crazy expensive vacuum and bought it at 20% off as part of the completion. I wasn't expecting anyone to spend that much on us, but I really wanted that vacuum!

Honestly, IKEA products are not durable and don't last long. Their stuff is cheap for a reason. I would recommend doing a registry at Bed Bath and Beyond and Target for quality products that will last you a long time

I found this list from buzzfeed to be incredibly helpful for kitchen stuff:

It has all the essentials and some great advice about picking quality pieces that will last years.

Trashcan, CanOpener, pots and pan, dishes, utensils, sheets

Everything PPs have said plus: cast iron skillet, a good quality crock pot, InstaPot

There are some great lists you can reference that go through every household item you could possibly need by room! Here's one: The Wedding Registry Checklist Every Couple Needs.

My personal must haves include a cast iron skillet, egg rings, bench scraper, and a sous vide stick & vacuum sealer!! I also wish I had registered for more towels and sheets!
