Bridal Shower Registry help
one of my BF's bridal showers is this weekend. yesterday, i finally checked her registry to see what i could buy her and there is practically nothing left. I feel so bad but i have no clue what else i can get her.
I've never been to her house (she lives out of state) and I know her and her fiance' are very picky about their decor so i don't really want to buy them a sign or anything like that.
any ideas?

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
How about a Gift Certificate to the store where they are registered?

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
what about making a basket for them? like make the candle basket or a cleaning product basket with the cute poems that go with them?
then with that you can add a GC to where they are registered......and its a personal gift mixed with an ability for them to buy what they want.

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
Gift card; lingerie; gift certificate for a massage; theme baskets....these were my favorite non-registry gifts!

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
One of my friends and I put together a honeymoon basket for a friend. She was going to Tahiti, so we got her an underwater camera, lingerie, a travel book for Tahiti and we put it in a cute beach bag. We also got her lotions and massage oils!

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
If they're really picky, I would just play it safe and go with a GC.

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
I like the idea of a honeymoon basket and a gift certificate to the store where they are registered.
Ideas for honeymoon basket:
-Books/Magazines for plane
-Underwater Camera
-His/her Flip Flops
-Monogrammed Beach Towel
-Monogrammed Beach Bag
-Travel Guide for where they are going
-Gift Certificate for Spa at the Resort where they are staying
-Suntan Lotion
-After Sun Spray
-Picture Frame/Photo Album
-Sarong for her
Hmmm - I will think of more.

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
You could always do a GC for a massage the day before the wedding or something like that.

if not a gift card to the store she is registered for
Monogramed towels
a basket with all the little things left on her registry

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
i would def. do a gift card and then put it in a basket filled with other items...
i think its just safe to stick to the registry and if all the items are taken off, then buy a gift card and put together a basket with a theme..
like a wine and cheese basket.. bed and bath basket...
something like that..

Re: Bridal Shower Registry help
as boring as it sounds a gift card is really the way to go...
if you must, do a smaller gift card and maybe a j crew tote bag with her married initials or something..
