Kim Kardashian got engaged less than a month ago and is already being called a bridezilla — and the reality star’s over-the-top wedding registry might be partly to blame. UsMagazine.com reports that Kardashian and fiancé Kris Humphries registered at GEARYS in Beverly Hills, a premium seller of luxury jewelry and homeware. The couple’s registry included a laundry list of expensive items, including crystal napkin rings, a $175 mustard jar and $38,4000 worth of Torchon dinner place settings. Kardashian and Humphries will walk down the aisle this Halloween.
If you don’t need household items, what wedding gifts should you ask for?
Cupid’s Advice:
If you already have a mustard jar and are looking for unique wedding gifts that aren’t household items, Cupid has some tips on what other kinds of presents you should ask for:
1. Honeymoon: Besides the reception, the honeymoon is probably the most expensive part of getting married. Now, you can use a website to ask your guests to contribute to various activities, like the flight, hotel, or food. Try HoneymoonWishes.com or SendUsOff.com.
2. Charity: If you feel like you already have everything you need, why not use your wedding as an opportunity to give back? Have your guests make donations to a few of your favorite charities instead of buying gifts àla Prince William and Kate Middleton.
3. Renovations: You may not need a fondue set, but you might need a new kitchen. If you want to make improvements to your home without accumulating even more stuff, ask each guest to contribute to a renovation with wallpaper, new counter tops, cabinets – you name it!
