Darcy's Diary: Things You Can Register for That You'll Love in 20 Years
A Classic Cake Stand
You can never go wrong by registering for a cake stand and I love this one from Juliska which is available on Amazon Registry. No matter what color your walls are over the years, white will always be a match. It's great for an everyday centerpiece piled with fruit, or you can pull it out for celebrations and special occasions year after year.
Dinnerware You Can Use Daily
Good china is another thing that you can save for special occasions, but you don't have to be afraid to use it every day! I love these elegant pewter dinner plates from Match, which are part of their signature collection.
Statement-Making Vases
Who doesn't love fresh flowers in their home? You'll want to be them weekly when you have gorgeous vessels to fill. I love these vases from Rosenthal, which come in modern shapes in classic white.
A Collection of Useful Books
Don't forget to register for a timeless library of books that can always be read, re-read, and referred to as you start a new chapter in your own lives together. Some books I love are:

Anything memory-keeping from Artifact Uprising will be something you'll love in twenty years, but I especially love their handcrafted wooden photo box, which can be customized with text or an image. Fill it with keepsakes from your wedding day or anything that you want to hold on to forever.
