off the registry.

oh, wedding season, you are here!
for the most part, i recommend following tradition and purchasing gifts for 
couples from their selected registries. i mean, it's the polite thing to do.
but what happens when you leave things to the last minute and when you look on the 
registry there is only, like, one hand towel left to purchase? we've all been there. 
don't be that girl- find something ah-maz-ing that the sweet lovebirds totally 
overlooked as they beeped their hearts out with that little magic gun at macy's.


2/ a return address stamp i desperately want one of these,
but refuse to purchase one until we're home owners. lovely none the less!
3/ a cake platter, even better if accompanied by a lux serving set.
4/ date night basket-we received a version of this for our wedding and it 
was probably one of our favorite gifts. everyone always forgets that honeymooners 
will return home to an empty fridge
5/ rifle paper co. card- to accompany your well-wrapped gift.
6/ the wedding invitation christmas ornament- my sister-in-law made me 
one of these! especially appropriate because we wed on Christmas Eve,
 but i think any couple would appreciate unpacking this every year as they put up their tree.

all that said, for our first wedding of the season, we did purchase from the registry, 
but i have these ideas packed away for future reference . . . backup plans never hurt!
