Happy New Year!
I know at least two of my friends got engaged over the holidays, so I’m guessing that there are more than a few newly engaged people out there. Congratulations!
This vacation was registry mania for me – We augmented the one we already had, and set up two others. The winner out of the gate so far is Michael C. Fina.
I strongly recommend it to any brides in the tri-state area (or beyond: their website is really comprehensive, but the only store is on 5th Avenue in NYC). Michael C. Fina has an amazing array of china patterns (casual and fine) and really fantastic customer service.
One really great feature that Michael C. Fina offers is the “Consolidated Wedding Registry.” Basically, they don’t ship you any of your gifts until after your wedding. This is perfect for people like me, who are moving shortly after their wedding. Now we can just have everything shipped directly to our new place.
If anyone else has unbiased registry feedback, feel free to post a comment!
love the idea of not shipping the gifts until after the wedding – so brilliant!
Thanks so much for kind words about Michael C. Fina. We value your opinion. Please contact me directly if you have any questions or suggestions on how we can improve.
Sincerely,
Hilary Donahue

My brother & sister-in-law used felicte.com You can add stuff from a number of stores (such as Target, Pier 1, and Pottery Barn) to a single list. Felicte then ships everything after the wedding. If also gives people the option of contributing a smaller amount towards large gifts like a pots & pans set or a KitchenAid. You can even set it up so people make charitable contributions in the couple’s name. All in all, very cool!
I love this! And I love your blog!
Tag, you are it. Love & Soul Always, Kay
I stumbled upon your blog and was reading the back entries and found this – I LOVE Michael C. Fina. That’s where my fiancee got my ring! They are most definitely the best customer service out there
I’ll be reading!
