A wedding registry is a list of gifts that an engaged couple creates to help their wedding guests shop. This list also helps prevent duplicate wedding gifts.
You can add anything you want to a wedding registry, especially when you register at Abt. We recommend assessing your home's needs; small appliances, dinnerware and bedding are common items that often go on a wedding registry. We also encourage you to add non-traditional items that reflect your interests as a couple, like furniture, gift cards or even a wireless speaker that's perfect for entertaining.
Some of the most popular items people register for at Abt are the classic KitchenAid stand mixer, a Vitamix blender, cookware like a Le Creuset Dutch oven or a Lodge cast iron skillet, and Dyson vacuums. If you're looking for more ideas, check out our wedding registry gift checklist.

We suggest setting up your wedding registry 6 months in advance of your big day. That way, your loved ones have plenty of time to purchase gifts and have them arrive in time for pre-wedding celebrations like your bridal shower or wedding shower.
Typically, the rule of thumb is to add two items to your registry per each person invited to your nuptials. However, you and your future spouse should add any items you need for your home to your registry, whether that number is larger or smaller than the two items per guest guideline.
