Perhaps you’ve grown tired of your Ikea-furnished home and are looking to elevate your home with some stylish wedding registry ideas. I recommend creating a wedding registry with items from various stores, not just through one retailer. This way you can really hone in on a personal interior design style that doesn’t just copy and paste from a catalog. Focus on quality materials and timeless colors. Keep reading for a guide to elegant and useful wedding registry ideas that will introduce a tasteful touch to your home.
Autumn Sonata Towel Set
Luxurious towels can truly transform your bathroom decor and your bathing experience. While you might not normally splurge on a set for yourself, they make an excellent gift. I love Autumn Sonata’s selection of artisanal cotton towel in neutral prints. These are the kinds of towels I image in an Italian villa or a mid-century gem. The double yarn cotton makes them plush to use and they’ll last for a long time.
Flamingo Estate Candle Set
If you’re looking for a memorable signature home scent, then Flamingo Estate candles make for an excellent wedding registry idea. These scents transport you to lush vineyards, summer feasts, and cozy cottage gardens. Due to their complex scent combos, they bring up a variety of pleasant memories. They come in a thick green glass container and have a surprisingly long burn time. I don’t know about you, but I always notice what someone’s home smells like.

I think we can all agree that we, as a modern society, need to eat more vegetables! Start off your married life with a healthy does of fresh produce. This wedding registry idea will save you time and provide you with some of the freshest seasonal produce available. The colorful array of options will inspire you and you new boo to try new recipes together and learn more about the health benefits of eating seasonally.
Oracle Olive Oil
Graza olive oil may be populating the food pics on your instagram feed, but I actually prefer Oracle Oil. The cold-pressed Greek olives have a nutty and subtly sweet flavor that enhances any dish. Ensconced in a dark blue glass bottle, cooking with this oil feels ritualistic. Up the ante of your mise en place with this stylish and delicious olive oil.
JB Blunk Book
Inspirational coffee table books are a great wedding registry idea. JB Blunk, artist and designer, handmade his entire California home. This book offers endless inspiration for home materials and forms. The timeless materials of wood, stone, and ceramic will inspire you to find or create your own versions to infuse your home with a personal touch.
Wedding Registry Idea: Smeg Electric Kettle
While you may already have the basic kitchen appliances, your wedding registry is a great time to update or replace any broken appliances. The Smeg variable temperature electric kettle allows you to set the temperature depending on what kind of beverage you like to sip on. I think the cream color is a great choice. The neutral color works with a variety of kitchen decor, from ultra modern to rustic.
Japanese Chef Knives
Of course you’ll also need a set of quality knives to help prepare all that fresh produce from your new subscription! Once you have a well-constructed set, they should last a lifetime with regular sharpening. Cooking becomes ten times more enjoyable when your kitchen blades slice well. Just make sure to hand-wash these Japanese knives to keep them in top shape.
Local Honey
Local honey also makes for a useful wedding registry idea. You can add it to teas, drizzle it over granola and yogurt, and use it in salad dressings. Did you know eating local honey regularly also helps with pollen allergies? Find your local beekeeper at a farmer’s market and add their website to your registry.
Stylish Wedding Registry Idea: Noguchi Lamp
People don’t often think of lamps as a wedding registry idea, but they add instant elegance to a space. Noguchi lamps, created out of wire and paper, emit a friendly glow. These paper lanterns are available in a variety of shapes and colors. Functional sculpture adds personality to a space and serves as a conversation starter.
Bang Olufsen Portable Speaker
As a newly-wed couple, you’re likely to host lots of dinners and parties. A portable speaker is a great wedding registry idea, since you can use it both indoors and outdoors. With dark oak panels and a streamlines shape, you won’t have to store this beauty away. The modular design ensures that the parts can be easily replaced, a perfect long-term investment.
