Real Couple Registry: Crista & Michael from Staten Island, NY

Although my fiancé Michael and I completed our registries back in November, I am constantly thinking of new items that we accidentally left off our lists. BG brides, I am thrilled to report that I was able to fill all of the missing gaps this past weekend at Kohl's! I visited the store to shop for my honeymoon wardrobe, but ended up spending so much time checking out their impressive home collection that I forgot what my original mission was. I was very pleased to learn about everything that Kohl's has to offer and now I finally have everything I need to start my new home with Michael.

The first thing we noticed in the home section was the Gorham Classic Wine Decanter. When we registered, Mike and I selected a pricey, delicate decanter that we’d probably only use for entertaining. In reality, we drink wine often and would benefit from selecting a more affordable option that better suits our everyday routine. This Gorham clearly fits the bill! Priced at a mere $42.99, Michael and I adore the decanter’s sleek design and look forward to using it daily. Best of all, it comes with a limited lifetime warranty, ensuring that we will be able to thoroughly enjoy our purchase for years to come.

Unfortunately, an amazing everyday decanter wasn't the only item I left off of our original registry. This is embarrassing for me to admit, but I completely forgot to select a set of stainless steel knives—oops! Mike and I love the Cuisinart Kitchen Choice 18-pc. Stainless Steel Knife Block Set, which fits into our city-chic, yet fuss-free lifestyle. The knives are held in a wooden block, allowing us to display them beautifully on our kitchen counter and conveniently grab one whenever necessary. In addition, the handles offer a comfortable grip and sharp stainless steel blades, helping to make cooking a breeze.

Before Mike and I put down our scanning gun, we also added the Keurig® Platinum Coffee Brewer. I originally thought the Keurig was solely for coffee drinkers, but after doing some research, I discovered that the K-Cup packs include delicious hot cocoa, apple cider and tea! This purchase will be the perfect kitchen accessory for Mike and I to enjoy on chilly winter days.

Thanks to Kohl’s, Michael and I have completed our registries and are eagerly counting down the days until my bridal shower.
