Reasons why you Should Consider a Wedding Registry

At Hutch Kitchen, we are very excited to announce our wedding registry. We love wedding registries and have put together some reasons why you should absolutely create one for your big day.

The Registry is just as much for your guests as it is for you.

Although you may feel a registry is self-indulgent, it’s really not the case at all. Your guests want to be a part of your new life and they want to help build it around you.  

Memories that last a lifetime

It’s a wonderful feeling to look back on something special that was gifted to you on your wedding day from a close friend or family member. These items hold special value and become a symbol of the person who gave it to you.  A registry helps to make sure what you receive will have a place in your life for years to come.

Upgrade or Start Fresh

Even if you already have some houseware from life before your marriage, it is a great time to upgrade to items that have been picked out as a couple rather than as an individual and will better reflect your personality as a couple.

You Will Receive Gifts anyways

Some guests will bring gifts even if you ask them not to. Since this is the case a registry makes it easier for everyone.

Further Tips

For more great advice and inspiration for your wedding day be sure to check out the Bridal Expo this Sunday, September 16th. The Expo is the largest bridal show in Alberta and provides attendees with the opportunity to become submerged in the Calgary wedding scene.

The one-day event will host over 200 exhibits belonging to expert members of the Calgary wedding community. The exhibits are sure to help spark your creativity and make your wedding day one to remember. Exhibitors cover everything that you need on your wedding day including photographers, event planners, venues, disc jockeys, and more.

In addition to the exhibits, the Expo is also home to Calgary's largest wedding gown sale, which offers huge discounts on designer gowns of 40%-70% off. The sale area has everything you need to find an amazing gown, with change rooms, mirrors, and bridal consultants.

After finding the perfect wedding dress, head on over to the artisan market to enjoy the work of local artists and creators. The market will also feature a selection of food trucks and musicians right next to the fashion show stage.

After grabbing some food why not check out one of the fashions shows will be running at 12 noon and 3 pm. Derek Macdonald who is the founder of the award-winning event-planning company Boom Goes the Drum, will host each show which promises to be inspiring as well as a lot of fun. The show will be curated by the best wedding salons from Calgary, who will be showing their most romantic gowns.

While enjoying the show keep an eye out for Hutch Kitchen branding, and once you get home head to website to create your dream registry, because who can live happily ever after without quality cookware?
