Weddings & Registering at Home Depot
Good evening! It's been a couple days since my last post - I do apologize, I was busy with my first Wedding Crash Course Bridal Seminar and trying to build my bathroom back up. If you're interested in finding out about the Wedding Crash Course Seminar, see my website at www.MoonriverWeddings.com.
Now about the bathroom and how it may relate to Weddings...my husband and I are renovating the bathroom off of my office. I can't WAIT until it's done. The fact that it's down to skeleton, is a good thing - it can only get better. So, anyway, we had a late night trip to Home Depot- well late night is really relative in Colorado Springs. The Home Depot closes at 9. yes, pm, 9pm. From a gal who moved here from Phoenix and a choice of 24 hour Home Depots, that's quite a disappointment. ANYHOW - while we were looking around for the proper materials, I thought to myself, I wish I had been able to register for tools.
When I got married, and it was only a few years ago, I tried to register at Home Depot to find it wasn't available. Not so anymore! Register to your heart's content! My best friend, whom I've known since I was three, yes, can you believe you can know anyone that long? She's getting married and of course emails me on occasion with questions. She recently emailed me about what she should register for. I say forget the towels, bedsheets and such. That kind of stuff you go through fairly quickly anyway and furthermore, get bored of and want new stuff, so forget that stuff. What you want are things that are going to last a long long time. Kitchen stuff is key. Get the darn turkey roaster - I promise you that even though you may be reading me like I'm nuts, I promise you there will be a day when you have to host 27 people for Thanksgiving (or even 10 - no matter) and you will need a turkey roaster. And there are none to be found. And when they are...they are tres expensive, for what you're getting anyway. I wouldn't say it's like buying a computer, but for a turkey roaster, you'd think no more than $50 right? MORE. So get the nice kitchen stuff.
AND, get tools. Not only will your fiance love you and treat you extra special, letting you get those Stuart Weitzman shoes for your wedding day, I promise you, you will use them...the tools gals, stay on point. Anytime you have even a little thing, like a leaky faucet won't send you to Home Depot and on home with a $200 receipt burning in your pocket.
So that's what I've got to say tonight...dream of pots, pans and tools...
Happy Planning!
