Where to Register in Toronto

Below’s a quick list of places where you can register:

The Bay/Home Outfitters: Probably your best bet when it comes to the variety of items offered. Also a good choice if you have guests from all across the country.

Sears: If you’re more in need of power tools than china, pick Sears instead of The Bay. Sears is also a good pick for those of you who love to travel because its gift cards can be redeemed at Sears Travel.

Crate and Barrel: Time for some blunt honesty: The stuff at Crate and Barrel looks great but please trust my first-hand knowledge when I say the furniture quality is crap. But it’s not a bad choice for small stuff like glass wear and vases.

Bed, Bath and Beyond: While I don’t know about the quality of the bigger stuff, the smaller items are perfectly fine and some of the designs are more contemporary than what you find at The Bay or Sears.

William Ashley: If you’re big into china, crystal and similar items you’ll want to register here. Do though keep in mind that there are only two William Ashley stores, the Bloor Street one and another one in Mississauga, so your guests will either need to live near by or be comfortable shopping online.

Williams Sonoma: Are you a foodie? Are your guests wealthy? Then this might just be the place for you to register.

Kitchen Stuff Plus: An alternative to Williams Sonoma.

Carnival Cruises: Planning to make your honeymoon a cruise? Then have your guests help contribute to it by registering for a Carnival Cruise.

Flight Centre: There are a ton of honeymoon registry options out there but many of them exist only online and that can make some people (including the guests) uncomfortable. So if you want to do the honeymoon registry thing, go with something like Flight Centre that also has physical stores that guests can stop by (and you) can stop by at.

  1. I registered at myregistry.com which is an online registry where you can pick and choose many stores to register from. I didn't like my choices for registries so the online one is perfect.
