Wedding Registry Tips

Start your registry early. You’ll likely have people start buying gifts for you almost immediately after getting engaged.
Register for a gifts at a variety of price points. This gives your guests the chance to choose gifts at prices they can afford.
Register for things you want, not just traditional items. If you and your fiancé love camping but hate hosting dinner parties, register for campaign gear over fine china.
Consider “everyday” and “formal” options. It might make sense to have multiple options for certain categories such as dishes or glassware.
Choose a registry with perks. The Bloomingdale’s Wedding Registry has some sweet ones, including personal consultations, a registry completion discount, plus savings on personal purchases during your engagement!
Over register. Add more options to your registry than your number of guests, just so you have a good assortment of options to choose from. Plus, you can use your completion discount to snag those items for less!
Keep track of gifts and send prompt thank you’s. It’s so important to make sure you thank each person who gives you a gift! Luckily, the Bloomingdale’s Wedding Registry has a built-in thank you manager to help you out.

One essential item for any wedding registry: an amazing coffee maker! You’ll want to upgrade to a great one if you’re using a basic model, and an amazing option is the Braun BrewSense Drip Coffee Maker.

Braun Brew Sense Coffee Maker from Bloomingdale's

One thing I love about this coffee maker is that it is minimal in design and offers a unique solution to a common problem that is typical of other machines. How many times have you started a pot of coffee but were too impatient to wait for it to finish brewing before pouring yourself a cup? Many coffee makers will continue to brew, dripping coffee onto the warmer below the carafe. But the BrewSense Drip Coffee Maker senses when the carafe has been removed and stops dripping, so not a single drop of precious coffee gets wasted. That’s something I can definitely get on board with! It also means less cleanup from drip burns on the warming plate.

This coffee maker brews your favorite coffee to perfection up to 12-cups. Featuring a stainless steel finish and extra wide display, this machine also offers a PureFlavor system designed to brew your coffee at exactly the right temperature, ensuring an eye-opening flavor and aroma.

The Brewsense retails for $99.99, so it’s a perfectly priced wedding gift choice that you’ll be sure to enjoy for years to come. Don’t be surprised if it’s one of the first things to get purchased from your list!
