This is a great thread!!! We also had a hard time debting on registering or not, but have decided to register because we are also having an AHR and a shower. We are going to put a lot of those smaller items on (I hate when you look at a registry and it's all bigger stuff, which isn't what you are really looking for when attending a bridal shower). Like others, we already live together, but would love to replace some things with better quality Thanks for everyone's opinion - this website has been the best thing to ever happen to me haha!!
