Navigating Your Wedding Registry

Navigating Your Wedding Registry

Some of you may be wondering ‘what exactly is the point of a wedding registry and do I really need one?’ I know many modern couples feel they already have everything they need for their home, especially if they have already been living together for years. And let’s face it, most people are hoping for CASH! But keep in mind, you will want to register for at least some items for your bridal shower at the very least. And while at most weddings these days we see very few actual gifts, some of your guests would really enjoy and prefer to buy you a gift rather than gift you money.

I’m sure you’ve seen these adorable fun filled gift boxes floating around on Pinterest. I think they are such a sweet gesture to give to your best gals either as a way of asking them to stand up in your wedding or as a thank you gift on the wedding day. These gift boxes typically contain items such as sweets, mini bottles of champagne, and personalized gifts. They can be purchased online (most commonly on Etsy); however, for those of you that are crafty, you might have more fun putting them together yourself!

Megan + Alex's Wedding at Black Swan

Megan and Alex were married on a beautiful yet windy day in September. Their ceremony was held at the St. John’s Northwestern Military Academy in Delafield and their reception was held at Black Swan in Milwaukee. They surprised guests with a bagpiper to escort them down the aisle after saying their I Do’s. The reception was complete with delicious food, plenty of dancing, sparklers and a cigar bar. You can clearly see how happy Megan and Alex are together by the huge smiles plastered on their faces all day long!
