While I married a little over 11 years ago - I'm almost certain not much has changed when it comes to creating your wedding registry. I can recall not being entirely certain what items would be must-have items, but now after being married and having 2 children, there are definitely items that I use nearly every day. And, now, with Williams-Sonoma's Open Kitchen, it's super easy to find Wedding Registry Gifts under $100. In this particular collection you will find 100+ everyday essentials and they start at just $5. Today I'm sharing my Top 10 Wedding Registry Must-Haves along with details on how super easy it is to create a Williams-Sonoma Wedding Registry {both in store and online} as well as how you can enter the Wedding Registry Sweepstakes and win a $5,000 Williams-Sonoma Gift card plus weekly prizes from KitchenAid, Le Creuset, Wusthof and more.
