Wedding Registry Must-Haves From Bed Bath & Beyond

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Bed Bath & Beyond. The opinions and text are all mine.

Planning our wedding has been filled with moments of joy and excitement and of course, all those nervous moments meticulously getting every detail just right. Now we’ve hit the home stretch and our wedding is only 10 weeks away! Yay!

Of all the exciting things I’ve been able to do as a bride-to-be, like finding that perfect wedding dress (2 in my case!), my bachelorette party, and planning our exciting honeymoon abroad I’ve been secretly waiting to get registered! I love shopping and creating a registry of specific items Raphe and I want as we start our new life together as husband and wife sounds like the perfect date night to me!

Since Raphe and I already live together we knew that our wedding registry would have to be a mix of some traditional items like small kitchen appliances and some more non-traditional items like home décor pieces and new bedding!

Luckily for us, Bed Bath & Beyond offers an extensive all-in-one wedding registry that includes all of the traditional and common wedding registry items AND some non-traditional wedding items like furniture, home décor, luggage and even offer once-in-a-lifetime experiences or Honeymoon and Cash Funds! With everything under one roof the decision was easy and we decided to register at Bed Bath & Beyond.

The process literally could not have been easier. With the ability to register whenever and wherever, you can register in-store with one of their registry experts, on-the-go with their mobile app which has a convenient in-store scanner so you can you add items directly from your phone, or even online. We actually started our experience in-store with the help of Michelle, our in-store Wedding Registry Specialist, who worked with us to not only explain the whole process but also provided some invaluable tips! As she walked us around the entire store from top to bottom, pointing out must-haves, offering suggestions, and explaining the difference between all the options for certain items like a new Non-Stick pan set, or what type of attachments we could add to a new KitchenAid stand mixer (hello Pasta maker!), she explained the importance of having items in our registry that fit a range of price points. Doing this allowed us to create a registry full of items that would fit all of our guests’ budgets and we were able to ensure all the bases were covered using their handy Price Analyzer tool!

From there we did another lap around the store utilizing the mobile app to scan some items we missed the first time around, like this awesome Spice Rack!

Before we left the store, Michelle introduced us to all of the amazing features and helpful tools offered with the Bed Bath & Beyond wedding registry. The Registry Checklist, for example, is a tool that helps you stay organized and ensures that your registry is thorough and spans all of your household wants and needs. Then there’s the Registry Guide (in print and digital) that is filled with ideas and inspiration for myriad items that you might have missed.

Once we returned home, at our leisure we were able to add more items online from their vast inventory of products as well as manage all of our items to create the perfect wedding registry! Having all three of these seamless options at our disposal made the process convenient, easy and so much more fun!

Below I’ve listed all of our ultimate must-have wedding registry items:

KitchenAid® Artisan® 5 qt. Stand Mixer Color: Guava Glaze

Admittedly Raphe does most of the cooking in our lives, and I being the smart woman that I am know that the right toys for my Leo will entice him to make more of my favorite recipes! The KitchenAid mixer is a classic kitchen staple with its myriad and versatile head attachments you can use it to make delicious blueberry pancake batter or fresh pasta from scratch! Raphe loves me so much he even let me pick this pink colored model which is called Guava Glaze! We even added the 3-Piece Pasta Roller Attachment set (not pictured) so I can enjoy my favorite food whenever I feel like it!

FryPans.jpg

Calphalon® Premier Space Saving Hard Anodized Nonstick 2-Piece Fry Pans Set

Every cook needs a good set of non-stick frying pans. These go beyond good. Featuring a dual-layered nonstick interior they are ideal for food removal and cleaning, they are oven-safe up to 400ºF, and offer an innovative design that keeps the pans securely stacked all while saving space in your cabinets!

Simplehuman® Steel Frame Dish Rack with Wine Glass Holder

On the more practical side of our registry we needed a new dish rack, but no ordinary dish rack will do. Everything Simplehuman® makes is flawlessly and beautifully designed, and this dish rack is no exception. It’s stainless steel look blends nicely with the rest of our existing appliances, and its compact design allows for more counter space while still holding all the dishes we utilize on a daily basis.

Instant Pot® 10-in-1 Duo Evo 6 qt. Plus Programmable Electric Pressure Cooker

I’ll admit it, I didn’t know the power of this beautiful machine when Raphe first eyed it for our Registry, but it does so many things it almost replaces all other cooking devices in your kitchen! It is essentially, a pressure cooker (cooking foods in a fraction of the time of conventional methods), a rice cooker, slow cooker, yogurt maker, steamer, sous vide, sauté, food warmer, cake maker and stock pot. The best part about this is its ease of use, which for someone like me who is often intimidated by cooking, opens up a whole new exciting world of making delicious recipes!

RNW_8879.jpg

Simplehuman® 45-Liter Rectangular LinerStep Trash Can w/Liner Pocket in Brushed Stainless Steel

Simplehuman® to the rescue again! Let’s face it, we all have to have a trash can in our kitchens, but now we can say our trashcan is like a work of art! From its foot pedal opening the gentle self-closing lid, to its sleek stainless steel fingerprint-proof finish (it even has a built in liner compartment so changing bags is streamlined), this trash can is the pinnacle of trash cans!

Pizza.jpg

OXO Good Grips® 4-inch Pizza Cutter & Epicurian® Natural Pizza Peel

Did I mention I love pizza and pasta?! Raphe and I often enjoy making our own pizza’s from scratch (or sometimes making a frozen pizza when time is an issue), and this handy little combo makes quick work of slicing up the pizza into perfect slices for us to share!

RNW_8919.jpg

Kamenstein® 16-Jar Hourglass Acacia Spice Rack (with included spices)

I fell in love with this spice rack in-store and new it would fit perfectly on our countertop. (No more spice jars in a drawer!) The clear jars with easy-to-read lid labels makes picking out the perfect spice as easy as eating a slice of pizza with sprinkled Oregano.

RNW_8932.jpg

Turkish Modal Bath & Hand Towels in White

Stepping out of the shower or a nice bath into the soft luxurious feel of Turkish Cotton towels is something that almost can’t be described. Suffice it to say, I wish I could just wear the towel all day.

Forest Gate 36” Connie Modern Glam Coffee Table in Faux Marble


Since the addition of our sitting area, we’ve have been hunting for the perfect coffee table that would both fit in and also be unique enough to add a pop of modern into our design. This beautiful table with Faux Marble top and gold legs matches the rest of our furniture perfectly and supplies the perfect accent. Also, can I say how perfect the surface is for future flatlays?!

Aluratek 8-inch Distressed Wood Digital Photo Frame in Brown


Raphe and I have so many wonderful photos from our travels together it is always hard to decide which one is worthy of being framed as a permanent memory. With this digital frame, all that is eliminated as we can have an endless slideshow of all of our favorite photos from past, present and future!

Roomba.jpg

iRobot® Roomba e5 WiFi Connected Robot Vacuum

With our busy schedules we admittedly neglect a regular vacuuming of our apartment at times. We had been talking about an iRobot for some time so when we saw it as an option, we quickly added it to our registry! The WiFi enabled Roomba allows us to start cleaning with the press of a button on our phone, or more conveniently, regular cleanings can be scheduled as often as we need. Now our floors can stay cleaner with all the pet hair and dust without us even thinking about it. Bodhi is still figuring out if it’s friend or foe though! Hehe!

7-Piece Gallery Wood Picture Frame Set in Walnut


The wall above our couch has sat unadorned for sometime as we could never quite figure out exactly what we wanted there. We knew we wanted pictures, but worried about them looking like a designed element. We love this frame set, because it comes with a large paper pattern layout so the frames are perfectly positioned in a way that complements the space! Now all that’s missing is our wedding photos!

This was what I am most excited about! Every adult needs a complete curated bedding set, and every Queen (that’s me) deserves the finest in Goose Down duvet! Right?

This Wamsutta® Dream Zone® White Goose Down King Comforter is the ultimate in luxury duvets. It feels lightweight yet keeps warmth in on those frosty nights! Paired with the Under the Canopy® Solid Organic Cotton 3-Piece King Duvet Cover set and sheet set it’s like sleeping in a cloud.

The Under the Canopy® Ogee Satin Weave King Quilt in Grey adds the touch of elegance to the bedding, while the Bee & Willow™ Home with Lauren Liess Martha European Throw Pillows in White and UGG® Monroe Square Throw Pillow in Snow give it that perfect feminine touch while still keeping the look clean and modern.

The UGG® Monroe Chenille Throw Blanket in Birch is the perfect addition to complete the look and is so soft and comfortable for the cold mornings reading in bed!

Most importantly Bodhi approves!

These are all of our wedding registry picks from Bed Bath & Beyond and we couldn’t be happier! Our place got a serious upgrade and feels more like home.
