You want to start your life together fresh! You got him to agree to throw out the old beer-stained college sofa, and in return, your ancient kitchen appliances have been sentenced to an eternity in the local dump. Your wedding registry is the perfect place to compromise with your sweetie on necessities for your new home. Choose basic items you'll both love, from the turbo-charged coffee maker you need for harsh Monday mornings to new cookware to complement your state-of-the-art stove. Start in the kitchen and work your way through the whole house with our Bridal Basics registry!

You want to entertain, but mismatched wine glasses and dollar store dishes are rarely considered cute once you're married. Browse our Bridal Basics registry's amazing collections of 'grown up' drinkware, flatware, dinnerware and serving dishes. We've selected some of our favorites to help you make a great table and stock your dining room. These basics will get you through any dinner party, but can also work as everyday pieces.

Next, choose products for the bedroom, which you'll most likely want to completely make over. Dress the bed with a new duvet and decorative pillows that reflect the taste of 'we' and not 'me'. Choose your new sheets by thread count―the higher the better. And get some fluffy towels in a variety of sizes to fill your bathroom. Finally, pick colored soaps and other bathroom creams and lotions as accent pieces. All of these little touches will make your house really feel like home.

Add some fun to your registry, even in the form of basic appliances. Choose things that define your lifestyle. Are you big on popcorn? Do you love a good latte? Do you like to make Belgian waffles on Sunday morning? Here are some great small home appliances for you. How about some good housekeeping tips? These floor washing robots will definitely make your life easier. Our Bridal Basics registry gives a double thumbs up to all of the iRobot and Roomba products.
