10 Things to Know About Bridal Registry

If you are among the masses who recently got engaged over this post holiday season, or know someone that did, here are some tips and advice before you start registering.

1. This is your ultimate wish-list. It's okay to ask for "splurge" items.
2. When creating your registry, don't be afraid to ask in-store consultants questions and advice.
3. Always register for more gifts than you have guests. And remember to choose gifts for all price ranges to give guest options.
4. Register more than one place to make it easier for guests to buy gifts, and make sure these stores have online bridal registries for out of town guests.
5. Register early so guests can rely on your registry for all gift giving events, including the engagement party, bridal showers, and the wedding.
6. Think of the sort of living and entertaining you want to do - and select items accordingly. Will you ever need that Soup Tureen? Do you want sterling silver?
7. When it comes to tableware, it is okay to mix patterns and shapes.
8. Include your husband in the registry decisions - he will be using these items, too.
9. Register items to consider: table, bath and bed linens; flatware; cookware and bakeware; dinnerware - everyday and fancy; crystal - white wine, crystal, champagne, and cocktail glasses; things for entertaining - cheese board, barware, candlesticks...
10. Give your registry information to your immediate family and those who are throwing parties and let them spread the word. If you have a wedding website, like knot.com, include a section for your places of registry.

Some popular registry brands to look at:
China: Raynaud, Anna Weatherley, J.L Coquet, William Yeoward, Philippe DeshoulieresAnnie Glass, Juliska
Flatware: Ricci, Couzon
Crystal: Varga, William Yeoward, Steuben Glass

Juliska's Introduces New Dinnerware


Juliska has introduced three new dinnerware lines in ceramics: Boxwood & Bow, Ruby, and Classic Bamboo. Boxwood & Bow is hung for the holiday with wreaths that go around the rim of the plates and bowls, topped off with a beautifully tied bow. This collection will be perfectly festive for the upcoming holidays.

The Ruby collection is meant to be mixed in with their other collections, giving a bright red hint of color to the tableset. The scalloped edging and other details of Ruby are very similar to that of Jardin du Monde and Berry and Thread collections. Ruby comes with a set of 4 Heart(-shaped) Cocktail Plates that will be perfect for Valentines dinner parties and entertaining!

The Classic Bamboo collection is my favorite new introduction; it brings a combination of naturalistic elegance and style to the table. The ceramic bamboo is so well done, looking very natural. Like most Juliska collections, the dinnerware looks fabulous on it's own but can be layered into other collections too!

These dinnerware collections will soon be available at Sallie home. For now you can call 1-800-257-9167 for more information or to purchase these new introduction pieces.

Samoa Gold Band Dinnerware | A Simple Way to Celebrate Spring


Most dinnerware patterns I typically think of for my spring table are full of flowers and other busy patterns. This year, I found J.L. Coquet's Samoa Gold Band. The Samoa dinnerware collection is subtle yet embodies the lighthearted feel of spring. Most pieces from this collection have a simple gold band accent. The uniqueness comes from the shape of each plate, bowl, and cup; each piece has a flowing scalloped rim. The tea cup and saucer are the best part of the collection. The cup has a vine-like handle coming off the body which is reminiscent of a buttercup. This cup stands out even more with the gold-banded saucer which are like the surrounding petals.

When looking for spring tableware, dinnerware, and home accessories remember they don't have to be busy and full of flower power; the beauty of spring is also in the shape, color, and feel of goods. To view more beautiful dinnerware by J. L. Coquet available at Sallie home, click here.

New Dinnerware from Raynaud!

Raynaud Porcelain Limoges Tableware and Dinnerware has introduced a new amazing collection of fine china called "Silver". Silver is a fun dinnerware line which is named after a common theme of all the piece in this collection, the color silver. The fun thing about this collection is its diversity in each plate, bowl, or cup's pattern. Some have just a silver rim around the inner and outer edge, other pieces have a clover pattern covering the surface or just the rim. The clovers look as if they are made from bent metal and are attached together by a tiny ring and come in different sizes depending on the piece of china. Though very different, together this collection forms a cohesive and interesting look for the table you must try.

Carved from Stone; Georgia Ivory China by J.L. Coquet


The Georgia Ivory Fine China from J.L. Coquet is an elegant yet simple piece of art, reminiscent of a marble statue you'd fine in an art museum. The Georgia's flower and vine pattern is adroitly carved out of Limoges ivory porcelain or white porcelain. It is a fine China Dinnerware that is versatile in all situations; it can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Though stunning, its lack of color will draw attention to the presentation of the food.

The serving pieces are quite lovely in this collection. My favorite being the Georgia Ivory Soup Tureen. It is elegantly detailed from the knob on the top to the ornately cut handles on the sides. This collection is an understated testament to the simplicity of beauty. Click here to view all of the fine china dinnerware and serving pieces by J.L. Coquet available at Sallie home.
