Don’t make this common mistake: forgetting to put certain things on your wedding registry list. After all, you only get one shot to make the best wedding registry, so you may as well knock it out of the park, right? ;) We’re here to help with the forgotten wedding registry items couples wish they added to their lists.
We’re also sharing how to set up a quick and easy registry, where to register, and what some of the best wedding registry items 2022 has to offer. Let’s get started!
What to Add to Registry
Before we show you what the best registry items are to add, you’ll need to tackle two quick things first. Where do you get a registry for your wedding?
Where to Get a Wedding Registry
For starters, I encourage you to get a registry first and foremost at Amazon here. Why? Amazon is the most used registry for weddings and guests alike. Let’s discuss it.
Amazon Wedding Registry
One reason why the wedding registry at Amazon is so wildly popular is simple: it’s easy to use.
Most of the Amazon wedding registry items are available with super fast shipping, so last-minute shoppers really appreciate the ability to shop late and still ensure gifts arrive on time for your shower or wedding day.
Secondly, most people already shop on Amazon, so using the Amazon wedding registry makes sense: guests are familiar with the layout, most likely already have free shipping with Prime.
For YOU, though, this registry is the most comprehensive: it is known as a universal wedding registry, which means you can add items from anywhere on the web to the same list. It’s that easy.
And lastly, the REVIEWS. I can’t stress this enough: you don’t want to add items to registry that end up being awful. Since you have the ability to read reviews before you add wedding items to your registry, you’ll ensure the products are made of the highest quality. This means fewer returns for you… and happier guests because they want you to love the gifts they give.

Next, here’s what you do with your wedding registry: put a link to it on your wedding website.
Put Wedding Registry on Website
It’s easy to share the wedding registry with your guests. Copy the link to your Amazon wedding registry and add it as a tab to your website. (Don’t have a website yet? Get one free here from Minted.)
Ok, now you’re ready to roll: now it’s time for the good stuff! Here’s exactly what to add to registry.
What to Add to Registry
Put these first items at the top of your wedding registry. I’ve tried the first two out personally and wow, amazing. That’s an understatement.
1. This Caraway Cookware Set, $445
There is no cookware on the PLANET you need to add to your wedding registry than this set from Caraway. I say that as a person who likes to cook but loathes cleaning pots and pans. And I can’t stand when food sticks to my pans, either. This is the first time I’ve ever been impressed for a long time with a cookware set; it is non-stick, and I mean that. This thing makes eggs slide right off. And cleanup? It’s a BREEZE. This is the wedding gift I’d highly encourage every couple to add to registry even if you think you already love your current cookware. Don’t wait. Add it now here.
I love mine in bright marigold: it’s such a happy, sunny color!
2. Nutribullet, $109.99
You NEED a Nutribullet. I didn’t think I needed one. I thought, I already have a blender, what’s the big deal? Okay, so blenders are no match for this thing. You can do food prep, make smoothies, frozen drinks, dips, everything. I wouldn’t ever go back to a traditional blender after using this thing. Get it. You’ll love it. Add to Registry.
3. Shark Navigator Vacuum, $189
This vacuum is easy to store and mighty powerful. It boasts over 25,000 reviews making it one of the most popular Amazon wedding registry items. It is great for picking up pet hair (ahhhh!) and everything else to keep your home nice and neat. Put it on the list!
4. All-In-One Vegetable Chopper, $39.88
If you don’t have one of these veggie choppers yet you’re missing out. It is like having a chef’s assistant helping you prepare meals. It slices. It dices. It cuts. It grates! Add it to registry here.
5. Water Resistant Picnic Blanket, $26.99
How exciting is a picnic blanket? It may not sound like it on the surface, but wait until you try to live your best life without one. :) I need to get a new one, to be honest, not becaue of qualtiy but because our family has grown so much. We just don’t fit on one alone! This is THE THING to bring with you on all of your adventures together, which is why I deem it one of the best wedding registry items 2022 has to bring to the table. Picnics? BBQs? Watching the fireworks? Going to the beach? Lawn seats at a concert? Bringing future babes to the grandparent’s house? You always have a dry place to sit, play, watch, eat, etc. You need one. (Honestly, over 11k reviews on a picnic blanket should tell you something!) Put it on the list!
6. KitchenAid 5 Qt Stand Mixer, $399
Sure, it sounds pricey, but this thing is a must-have for the registry. Every couple can use one in the kitchen and it’s one of the classic registry gift items that everyone consistently loves and uses! Choose your color here. I personally love this one in blue ice. :)
7. Utopia Bath Towels, $26.95
One of the forgotten wedding registry items is a FULL set of bath towels. Sure, couples add a few towels here and there, but you’re missing out if you don’t add a complete set to the wedding registry. Plus, not all towels are the same. Many of them lack quality, are awful after a few washes, and you’re looking for longevity here. Go with this set by Utopia, which boasts high-quality reviews and over 46k people want to talk about them. For towels, that tells me something! Add it to the list!
8. Set of 6 Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls,
If you’re short on space, or you just love to make meal prep and storage easier, make sure you don’t miss out on one of the most forgotten wedding registry items: stainless steel bowls for mixing, cooking, baking, prepping, and more. They are nesting bowls so they’ll save space and can fit alongside your pot and pan organizer. Put it on the list.
9. This Ice Maker, $119.99
If you plan to host anything, you need ice. Lots and lots of ice. And if you like to have ice in your home, as I do, then you’ll need to get a countertop ice maker like this gem. It’s highly rated and extremely popular right now, particularly because it is summer, but also because it saves you a lot of time. You can make an amazing amount of ice in 24 hours. I’m about to have an add to cart moment myself. :) See it here.
10. Heavy Base Drinkware Glasses, $34.99
You can no longer rely on the random glassware in your cabinet. It’s time to get a brand new set, one that is nice and sturdy, heavy enough but not too much, and looks nice when guests come over. I say this from personal experience because it is due time for us to buy a brand new set and this one has caught my eye. It’s one of my favorites on our list of the best Amazon wedding registry products and for good reason: read the reviews for yourself!
11. Car Vacuum with Attachments, $34.99
Bring the auto detailing to your own home with this kit. I think this is one of the major forgotten wedding registry items because people assume the gifts are JUST for the home: think outside the home, too! Your car is somewhere you’ll be spending lots of time in, whether to travel for work or just around town, on vacations and adventures. Keep it clean with this fantastic vacuum that 120,000 people can’t stop talking about! Read about it here.

Waffles are great, but mini waffles? Even better. You can get your brunch fix on-demand, at home, with ease. This mini machine is great and doesn’t take up too much space. A real gem to have in the kitchen! Get it here.
13. Cosori Air Fryer, $119.99
Do me a favor: if you don’t have an Air Fryer yet, go ahead and add to registry now. I can’t say enough good things about air fryers, which is why I bought so many as gifts this past Christmas. Every home should have one. It’s the easiest way you’ll cook, period, and it will save you tons of money on carryout because the food tastes that good, without all the grease. Take it from someone who has kids, too: this is the easiest way to make weeknight dinners they’ll love to eat and you’ll enjoy cooking with, as it’s easy to set up, clean up, and the food is quick to cook. Enough from me, find out more for yourself!
14. This Salad Spinner, $29.95
I don’t know how a single salad spinner garnered over 25,000 ratings, but it did, which tells me you ought not spin salad in ANY other vessel. ;) This one by OXO boasts a large size — 6.22 qt — is sturdy, and works great. Having the best on the market might actually make you eat more greens, too… you never know. Add to the list.
15. Glass Storage Food Container Set, $39.99
