hello@wolferandco.com
My parents got engaged 24 years ago, have been married for almost 23 years. They still use plates+bowls+cups set they got as an engagement gift from my grandparents. Sure, it's missing like 3 or 4 pieces and they got 2 more modern sets later in life, but to this day we have them during Sunday breakfast whenever I come back from uni. The hairdryer they got at the wedding lasted for 10 years. They still use a microwave, toaster, and even a stereo set and they are in really good condition
Top 10 List
1. Serving utensils
2. Casserole dishes
3. Toaster / Toaster oven
4. Cast iron/ Dutch oven (my own advice, get more than one, I use one for savory and one for sweet)
5. Pots and pans - good quality
6. Plates and bowls - normal everyday
7. Everyday utensils
8. Platters and serving dishes
9. Good knife set
10. Quality linens, bed sheets and towels
Bonus: Standup Mixer
Great items shared-thank you! I'd add a Vitamix to the list (or just a really great quality blender). Great for smoothies, soups, purees for tiny humans, drinks etc.
Highly recommend a Le creuset Dutch oven. Totally worth the money.
Some random things we put on our registry that we use all the time : oven mitts, microplane, velvet hangers
Any suggestions/ recommendations/ tips on sizes and styles?
@@houseofschenck6230 great question. I think we have the round Dutch oven and prob the 5 1/2 quart? I don’t think you can go wrong though
I love my stand mixer so much. I will back that up as a great household essential.
Bed frame - We didn't live together before we were married and so we each only had a bed big enough for one. And, consider getting a bid bigger than you might initially think you want because while it's romantic to have a small bed for short period of time at a certain point you just want to sleep.
Luuuuv your hair.
Please do you have a self catering guide or suggestions?
Thank you for this video!!
BEST Knives... to LAST the rest of your life!!! CUTCO!!!
Luggage is also a great thing to add to the registry. Suitcases can be expensive and it’s hard to bring yourself to actually spend the money on quality ones. So getting it as a gift is great. Plus, if you don’t own any luggage yet it’s a must have before the honeymoon! I love your videos🤍🤍
A very nice vacuum cleaner or shop vac and a Rowenta iron are good items you'll use for years. Also, pro tip...when shopping for nice water glasses, make sure you can fit your hand inside. If there's ever a time you have to hand wash them, it's a pain to realize you can't really get your hand down in them. Learned from experience on that one.
I’m really into outdoor activities and we added a good quality tent, hiking poles, headlamps and a daypack on our registry. Things that we probably would have put off purchasing on our own, but having a new good quality set that is ours to share makes a big difference and we put to good use!
I love that it’s something more personal to the two of you as well. 🧡
We did that as well and lots of surfing gears even wetsuits
Another really great item is an air fryer, especially for those who like fried foods but don't want to deal with the mess of making it yourself. Some really good ones can even make a whole rotisserie chicken, which for someone who meal preps this is very useful.
Older engaged couple alert!!!
For young couples just starting out, I agreed with most of the items on your recommended registry list (especially the mixer and other cookware).
Here are some additional items I carried over to our impending marriage from my single days: Wusthof knives (similar to Henckels in quality), Instant Pot (gifted to me by a good friend), Nespresso Coffee Maker (nonnegotiable), good quality heavy duty sheet pans, food processor, very expensive (very beautiful) Perfex heavy duty salt and pepper grinders. My best friend also has beautiful gifted crystal glasses from a previous chapter in her life.
Re our “registry:” since we (more or less) have what we need to live comfortably, in lieu of gifts, we created a list of charities/foundations for our guests to contribute to (as they wish).
Can you please do a video on wedding weekends? Like a multiple day celebration for family and friends
As you’re talking about crusty college-era towels, I was literally stepping out of the shower wrapping my hair in a towel I received at after prom IN THE YEAR 2000!! 😳🤦♀️😆 this is promptly going in the rags pile….
Great list Jamie! I agree with all of it. One thing we registered for was a high quality vacuum. My husband has pretty bad allergies and our vacuum has been one of my favorite wedding gifts! We also love our 30 cup water purifying dispenser. Wonderful video as always! 💖
I wanted a stand mixer for Christmas at 16. I received it as a family gift. I have had it for 15+ years. I use it all of the time. It is my favorite gifted item.
This video came at the perfect time, thanks Jamie! Recently my fiancé and I hit up Target for our registry and we're both super excited for the Ninja Foodi Power Blender Ultimate System!! It's so versatile, crossing my fingers someone gets it for us. 😂
We got our red kitchen aid with a bunch of attachments for our wedding, it was 7 years ago and I love it and use it every week
Could you do a COMPREHENSIVE video about how to DIY florals?? I know you have a lot on this, but I’m just curious about the process of when to order flowers, what to do when you get them, and how to best ask someone else to set them up for you😁😁
I really recommend FlowerMoxie for their content on this. I have done 4 weddings now, including my own and their stuff hits the mark. I didn't order from them (not in the US) but for the next wedding I do I think I will use their ordering site as a reference as well.
One suggestion I saw years ago was 'really nice Christmas decor', and to be honest, that makes so much sense to me. The vast majority of holiday decorations that people end up with are impulse purchases or something they picked up on sale, instead of something they intentionally bought to last and pass down to their kids. Sometimes that results in great memories and accidental heirlooms, but the vast majority of those ornaments and garlands and fake Christmas trees are just going to end up broken, or tossed out when you downsize for your retirement. Meanwhile high-end home goods and electronics stores always have dope as hell decorations that I could never justify spending that much money on. This makes them perfect gift fodder.
Of course, this is a better option for people who're having spring weddings, since it means your engagement period can run through December when most of these items will be available, but I thought it was worth bringing up.
Why Is there nothing for guys? Power drills, grills, tools etc.
Some of the amazing links your provided are now broken :/
8:46 "Not only has my husband bludgeoned me..." (Talking about knives and then taking a pause at this point in the sentence is anxiety-inducing lol)
When it comes to things that are good to use for special occasions some nice crystal wine glasses or champagne glasses are a great item to add to a registry. You can pull them out for Christmas, thanks giving, or any special occasion. My parents get a set for their wedding and it comes out every year for Christmas or extra special occasions. Yes you need to remember to hand wash them but they really finish off the table. Los if you want to use them as you every day wine/champagne glasses that’s fine too.
Would love to see a top ten non kitchen items!
LOVE the short hair Jamie 😍
Does Honey fund have an option down payment fund help instead?
Love this! My honey and I are opting for honeyfund because we’re moving right after getting married and don’t want to have a whole bunch to move across multiple states. But it’s helpful to know what we need nonetheless!!
What if I’ve been established in my house for 5+ years, have everything we need, and would just like a nice way to ask guest so just give us a check… and not buy us more items?
To help us financially after the wedding!
Okay, Jamie come throuuuugh haircut!
For sheets I also love ettitude! They were expensive but I got them for us for christmas and they rock
Some good pots & pans that are great are stone one. The brand I have is “NEVERSTICK” but other stone/copper stone pan brands are great. We had one and when we moved house we went & bought a whole new big set. We use them every day. They last & last.
Not Jamie calling me out on my room essentials target towels i still have from freshman year of college 😭😂 DEFINITELY putting that on our registry now! Great idea thank you lol
I 100% agree with everything you had on this list. We had all these on ours (except the mixer because we already had one and love it).
I would add any other small appliances you know you will use like a nice coffee maker
We got a nice set of cusine art pots/pans that I absolutely love and is our number 1 most used item from our registry.
Love the ninja pots and pans. They sell at kohls and you will not regret this
I’ve been watching your videos for over a year now, and we got engaged in August 🎉 so excited
Can you please advise on how to plan a wedding when the groom is away for military training, we’ve discussed priorities and his parents (and mine) are all helping with the finances… but sorting out dates and picking venues etc is stressing me out
Love the hair
For those that have to use a cook book. They are perfect for an established kitchen. It's a budget friendly option for your guests and makes you break away from your safe receipts. If someone isn't a avid cook requesting a start up book is great too.
Lenox ornaments of other nice ornaments for a christmas tree. Jump start your collection
A good quality blender (I love my vitamix) and I love my stainless steel pans. You definitely have to do some research on how to properly use stainless steel pans but once you get the hang of it they work amazing and will last forever.
Something on my registry I'm excited for is one of those round electric griddles. I make homemade tortillas, and a round electric griddle would be perfect for that. It would heat the tortilla evenly. Whereas a stove top griddle is nice, but, it doesn't heat a large griddle as evenly.
Still rocking the college towels haha
We got married 3 weeks ago and this was such a struggle! We didn't know what to ask for!!!!
Super cute hair cut!!!
Awesome video!! But I also want to say I just love this hairstyle/cut on you ❤❤❤
Oh my god! This haircut! 💯💯💯 It just fits you like a glove.
So my take away is that your cousin sounds like a gem of a human. Total gem. 💎
Also, as a baker, it makes me cringe when I see those super cheap, very dark non-stick baking sets on registries. 😬 they bake AWFUL cake layers and cookies, etc! Stuff just burns and comes out wonky. So buy separately and the heavy duty, made to last stuff. Please and thank you.
Does honeyfund charge any fees?
I love Gotham steel pans they're made from copper infusion metal and cook without sticking even if you cooking sunny-side-up eggs I'm going to be 21 years old this year and am planning to get married after I move into my first time apartment right now I'm living in a group home and is working on my independent skills it's very difficult and a pain in the Bum
24 years married and still using many of my towels, blankets, linens (although these are now for the spare room bed as we upgraded to a larger bed)and most of my utensils. They are not my “good” stuff anymore by any means but they are still in decent shape to be used. Not to say I am not definitely looking forward to a 25th anniversary party so I can have them replaced though 😉. LOVED our electric griddle that was gifted us, it lasted for 18 years before we had to replace it. And our vacuum cleaner! Have definitely gone through a few since then but as it was expensive and we were poor when we got married it was an absolute favourite gift! Oh, lol, we also didn’t have air conditioning when we were first married so fans were on our list and yes, we still have those too.
Hexclad Pots and Pans are extreme quality. They're a hybrid type of pan that Gordon Ramsay uses himself
My 1st wedding we got a bunch of random stuff, best thing was a good quality hoover ( vacuume) literally don't have anything from the wedding anymore, but we did get divorced. I'm currently engaged and have everything we need since we're 29 and 32, we're considering asking for money and plan to use it on reptiles as we are snake breeders. Most of our friends and family haven't a clue when it comes to reptiles so we think it might just be easier to get money and we can buy the things we want. Alternatively we'll save the money so we can travel to different parts of America to see reptile breeders we love, we live in Scotland so it will cost a lot of money for us to be able to travel to see these breeders and this would help a lot towards the cost of that
Mmmm yes I did a lot of research into stand up beaters - I don't bake enough for it to be worth asking for a kitchen aid. I found the best value beater was Breville the Bakery Chef
Lol we asked for honeymoon funds because we have all these things and more. I just always want to be prepared 😅
Mainstay Microfiber Sheets from Walmart are the ones I love more than all the more expensive ones I’ve owned over the years.
I would add a crock-pot/slow cooker to your list...😊
Insta pot has slow cook/crock pot setting. Works great.
yes! we have been living together for a while but I was so happy to upgrade our plates, serving ware and pots/pans!
I know people like carraway and Selena Gomez’s pots and pans
Not quiete engaged yet, but I can’t wait to put a really nice coffee machine on our registry for my partner. I know most of the other stuff will be for me but I want him to have something special.
We bought the ninja hot & cold brewed system with money we were gifted at our wedding last October and we love it! Highly recommend
You should do a video on christmas weddings
Crockpot with a built in timer.
I love your haircut!!
Air fryer!!
Great list! We used our registry to update our hand me down items on a lot of the items that you listed. Wedding is in 3 days and barely anyone purchased from our registry. 🫣 Fingers are crossed for cash gifts so we can buy the things we had on there! 😅
did you have a bridal shower? most people buy registry gifts for bridal showers and give money for weddings so that’s probably why. i personally have only ever given people money as a wedding gift and bought something off of the registry for the bridal shower
@@bebeerin I did not have a bridal shower. Lots of people ended up giving money so we just went and bought the items that we didn’t get from from the registry 🙂
