Aesop hand soap makes us feel like our home is a spa. A cat hair filled spa.

We are very excited to tour Italy for the first time! From Lake Garda to the Amalfi Coast via train.

We use our Holy Sheet pans all the time, but sometimes you need a daintier option. Love the green colorway!

Michael loves his coffee... especially Baby’s Key West Coffee.

Katherine is not very tall and needs occasional assistance to reach things. Michael is sometimes indisposed and thusly, a two step stool is a necessity.

We imagine one of our balconies will be for dining and entertaining, and the other for suntanning and reading. Guess which one this is intended for?

Put a finger down if you’ve ever googled “best immersion blender”.

Fewer! Dishes! With this bowl set!

Our surprising wish for a couple who travels a lot: a lime tree.

You have to be able to check our entire 'fit out before you go out.

Three words: fewer plastic baggies.

A little bit of VA field party energy could come to NYC with this balcony friendly gift.

Mmmmm, cotton sateen in a steely hued grey. They just look cooling, don't they?

Mmmmm, cotton sateen in a steely hued grey. They just look cooling, don't they?

The VMR’s are trying really hard to use fewer paper towels. The snag is that many of their kitchen dishtowels are white... please send help.

Now Katherine can’t say “never have I ever googled ‘what is the best whisk?’”

One of those little kitchen necessities you didn't know you needed until suddenly you've melted your countertops.

We would really like to take in Michelangelo's David and a little Botticelli while in Florence.

Before we end our honeymoon we have the chance to go on a guided tour of Tuscany to a few vineyards by Vespa. Katherine will probably get tipsy and tell everyone that "her first car was a scooter".

If you haven't yet tried Great Jones cookware, you have to change that. It yields evenly cooked results and is a dream to clean - nothing sticks to it!

So Babs travels from NY to VA swaddled in a cashmere blanket that used to belong to her humans and is now covered in cat hair. You can see why this is on the registry.

Olive oil forever.

When the recipe says "internal temperature should be 165 degrees" and then later you're eating pink chicken because you didn't have a thermometer, you suddenly really want a thermometer.

Living and working in London, as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, Natalie (founder of Bespoke Binny) recognised the importance of one’s home environment, in coping with issues such as anxiety and low mood. Being of Ghanaian descent, Natalie grew up being surrounded by vibrant colours and prints, which she found to be uplifting, as a child. Motivated by her experience and love of sewing, Natalie went on built an eclectic homeware brand rooted in African expression.

This is another one of those "if you didn't put it on your registry, did you even marry?" essential items.

The gentle scraping power of a silicone utensil on a brand new All-Clad pan is unmatched.

A fry pan with a lid just seems like a must have.

Now that we're in this two bedroom space, we're realizing there is a lot to clean!

We’re pro-linen bedding in the summer!

Coyuchi is an environmentally friendly brand. Specifically, this purchase will: save 857 days of drinking water, avoid 4 miles of driving emissions, and farm 82 sq acres of land without pesticides.

Toast is always delicious but toast made in a smeg just tastes better.

Would you believe that this mixer was a Michael add to the registry? The man loves a KitchenAid mixer (maybe solely for the creations it churns out).

We found the most compact, apartment-friendly printer out there!

We currently drink most of our water from holographic VT Hokies cups, so you would really be upgrading our lifestyle with a gift like this one! And then one day we can make you a cocktail in this glass, too.

Wouldn't it be fun to be wine carafe people? "Would you like some lightly chilled gamay from this CARAFE? Oh, you would? Drinking from a bottle is just sooooooo passe, is it not?" Chances are we break the carafe, but let us live.

According to hyperenthusiastic amazon reviewers, this is the top air fryer.

Roberta’s Pizza is the best ever.

We are a household trying to use fewer single use goods! Stasher is a great plastic baggy alternative.

We eat more pizza than you think we do.

For when you don't want to eat chips from the bag and want to feign fanciness.

What a gift it would be to sleep on a cloud (this is as close as we can get).

Sometimes you need a drink with a snack.

Michael simply adores cheese! Just kidding, this gift is 100% for Katherine.

A cookie scoop is required to make Alton Brown's The Chewy recipe. AKA the best cookie recipe out there.

Acacia patio sets are durable but maybe not so comfortable sans cushion...

At first our old can opener only worked with a woman’s touch. Now it really doesn’t work at all.

Gotta maximize that precious outdoor space!

Have you met the Von Marston Roulston’s? All three of us (Babs, Michael, Katherine) have a lot of hair.

Really useful and really matches our current dishware. Our larger bowls are orange plastic, this one is so much nicer!

You could say this gift is "pretty functional" (because it's really pretty AND very functional LOL get it?).

Must haves.

We have the Tour wine glasses and would love to complete the beverage set.

Campaign for the champagne in a glass like this that looks insane!

We miss tableside guacamole. With this we can draw straws for who makes it at home.

These dishes make spilling look chic! Katherine is a spiller.

If you get married and you don't ask for a roaster, did you even marry?

We want to be THOSE PEOPLE with an organized bathroom.

Fun fact about our current home: all our plastic measuring cups have no handles. Time to level up.

Michael isn’t a spice fiend; Katherine is. If you add proper teaspoons to their kitchen you would be doing Michael a huge solid so Katherine can stop guesstimating with the red pepper flakes.

This vase is the perfect mix of weird and pretty and also has a small opening which is so hard to find sometimes and very useful to prevent flowers from tipping over and rolling around in a mouth that’s too big!

Think of all the food we could process!!

On a day trip from the lake we'd like to visit one of Italy's well known wine regions, Valpolicella. We got engaged after enjoying a bottle of Amarone, and the grapes are grown here, in this region.

Since it's a honeymoon, we plan to spend an afternoon in Verona. This will include a leisurely lunch and visit to Juliet's Balcony!

"Tell me you went to Venice without telling me you went to Venice…”

We'll be bopping around Rome via golf cart to see the sights!

Cheers from Rome's Trastevere neighborhood! We plan to do some sunset wandering and have a drink while in Rome, perhaps with some pizza thrown in.

We have the opportunity to partake in a guided small group tour of the Vatican!

Two tickets for a tour of Pompeii's historic ruins. We can’t wait, and made especially sure that we had enough time for this stop on the trip!

Our last honeymoon stop is the Amalfi Coast, specifically Positano. We would love to take an excursion to beautiful Capri by boat one day!

Seems like a grown up thing to ask for, no?

It is not like us to leave wine in a bottle, but on the off chance we do we like it to last.

Say it with us: lightly! chilled! red!

Again, usually bottles are finished or full, but these are helpful.

Basically this would be helpful after we break the carafe.

These would round out our current set of dishware.

These would round out our current set of dishware.

Shop Keentu sources artisanal products from makers in Rwanda. The curator has amazing taste, and we need a fruit bowl!

After much measuring and deliberation, THIS is the patio set that fits our balcony and is perfectly functional!

We are so tired of trying to scrub the crusty little spoon debris up from the counter. This would be a game changer!

Our first stop on our Italian honeymoon will be Lake Garda, Italy's largest lake. Among many things, the lake is well known for its relaxing and beautiful thermal pools. We want to check it out!

We've booked additional days in Positano over our honeymoon in order to slow down and enjoy the town, and each other's company.

Bowls with lids > bowls without lids.

These would round out our current set of dishware.

Our fourth stop on the Italian honeymoon is Rome. The day we arrive we want to try a pasta making class (obviously it will include wine!).

Never enough cutting boards!

We love our new balcony but the eastern sun shines almost too brightly!

10/10 would also accept a homemade ceramic or pottery serving platter (@Aunt Jane)!

A friend of ours once remarked that “everyone has those glasses!” They’re a classic for a reason, and a set of four (we have two) would be fabulous.

Grill: checkGrilling tools:

While in Venice we have the chance to tour the iconic Doge’s Palace and the Golden Basilica. Did you know the Basilica’s bell tower collapsed once upon a time? We didn’t until we googled it just now.

The best non-stick egg pan. We would use this every day.

Michael just told me he prefers his glassware to have “a clean look”. You learn something new every day.

This is the Venetian version of a bar crawl, but with local foods thrown in! Apparently, lots of locals participate, too, so we will have the chance to make friends.

We have the most leisure time in Positano and are looking forward to using it for gelato!

Michael is especially excited to join the Naples vs Rome pizza debate. Even though we aren’t going to Naples, I’m sure we’ll leave the country as pseudo-experts on the Roman pizzerias!

We want to see the coastline without obstruction, and have the chance to do a half day scooter rental!

Dinner with the best view of Positano. I’m sure it won’t be romantic ~at all~…

It’s time to say goodbye to our trusty old bar cart, and hello to a wall mounted wine rack,

If Sadie ever comes to stay with us, we want her to feel comfortable enough to make bread. She will need the proper pans!

Linen napkins. You know, to impress people.

Aaaand we are also over wilted greens.

We’re over soggy salads!

Always thought these were silly, but now I understand how much cleaner it keeps your kitchen sink.

You might look at this gift and think “it’s not very exciting” but trust me, we are excited about it.

I don't know if you know this about Suzanne Roulston, but as a safety precaution when moving around the kitchen with sharp objects she yells "sharp! Sharp!". Please gift us these extremely sharp knives so that we can yell "really sharp! Really sharp!" as we cook.

These would make life so much easier.

Coyuchi has high quality products and keeps their environmental impact in mind, plus their bath sheets are giant!

Is there anything cuter than a couple in matching robes? Bonus points if you can find a similar robe for cats. Because that would be the only thing cuter.

Currently we have two dining chairs - we picture a bench going opposite these!

This would double as a footboard (and give Michael a litttttle bit more room for his clothes).

We hope to have at least two photos from the wedding that we want to frame… or two hundred.

Suz introduced us to these easy to use wraps and they’re wonderful!

Limited Brooklyn storage space means we love anything that is two in one!

Please help Katherine organize the groom’s desk ;)

Now that we’re getting settled into the new home, it turns out that our office/second bedroom is the least organized space! This will help us change that.

Amazing what a couple pieces of wire can do for pot and pan storage.
