Right next to sampling cakes, sitting down with your significant other to pick out some luxuries (and essentials) for your registry can be the most fun part of pre-wedding prep. It's a shopping spree for the life you want to live together, and, unlike almost everything else with your wedding, you don't have to pay the bill.

To get the most out of it, you're going to need to hitch yourself to a service that offers lots more than toasters and vases (though of course, you need those too). Wayfair Registry more than hits that mark, with more than 10 million items to choose from—plus, user-friendly features like a no-gift-left-behind checklist, personalized recommendations, and a bevy of sample wish lists for inspiration. The option to add gift cards from places like Airbnb, Delta, and UberEats is a nice bonus too, and there's even a 20 percent completion discount on any items your guests don't purchase.

Start creating your Wayfair Registry for a wishlist—and a home—that reflects who you are. We've even collected a few of our favorite finds worth pledging forever to. Have fun, you two.
