One of my beautiful bridesmaids and I woke up bright and early today to attend one of Crate & Barrel’s Wedding Registry events at our local store. While you might think that 9am is too early to venture out on a Sunday, Crate and Barrel really makes it worth your while.
At these Registry events, Crate and Barrel has experts on hand to demonstrate appliances, cookware, and assist with picking out home and other kitchen essentials. Check out the frittata station above! They also invite local vendors so that you can chat with photographers, florists, and bakers, allowing you to get even more out of the event.
My friend walked around for about an hour to sample tasty treats while going a little scan gun-crazy. Here as some photos from our morning:
Infused water and non-alcoholic orange spritzers
I loved the display so much that I registered for the beverage jar and stand! 
Yogurt and granola (more assorted breakfast pastries were set up at the next table)
Panini Station with a Cuisinart Grill/Griddle pan
She made delicious bacon, tomato, and mozzarella paninis!
Le Creuset crepe station filled with Nutella
Mini lemon cupcakes by Simply Sweet Cakery
We were so full from sampling other goodies that I just didn’t have room for this sweet treat. My lovely bridesmaid, however, took a card from this local vendor as an idea for a bridal shower (yay!).
Krups BeerTender
It was definitely too early for beer but the idea of this machine is so cute, and much classier than an actual keg 
I think they set out this for the guys as wedding registries tend to be a fun girl thing to do.
All in all, I think it was a really fun event. I think I’ll attend another one in a few months, or whenever our registry needs to get updated. The vendors and featured products may vary with each week making it helpful to meet new vendors or experience new kitchen demos every time!
Have you ever been to one of Crate and Barrel’s Wedding Registry Events? Do think they’re fun and helpful? If you’re engaged or recently married, please give us your best must-have items to include in our registry!
