Wedding registries are a key part of any nuptial planning process, but what ends up on these wishlists naturally evolves through the years. Today, there’s certainly a preference toward high-tech gadgets, space-saving pieces, and upgrades that get daily use—and many simply politely ask for cash so they can buy items on their own. It raises the question of whether traditional registry items, including fine china and beautiful silverware sets, remain relevant in our modern times. At the link in our bio, experts share what modern couples are really registering for.

Your wedding photos last forever, but a few common mistakes can quietly sabotage them. Most photo-ruining mistakes aren’t about having the "wrong" flowers (they simply don't exist!) or not knowing how to pose. In actuality, such missteps are usually neither obvious nor uncommon. And while a talented photographer can work wonders, even the best can’t outshoot a schedule that’s too tight or work literal color-correcting magic on photos washed out by the blazing sun. We spoke with a wedding photographer to learn the most common decisions and oversights that can subtly sabotage your gallery (and how to avoid them) at the link in bio. 📸 JovanaT / Getty Images
While wedding traditions that don’t feel quite right are getting the axe, other details are getting more nostalgic.

"Our couples love that the footage captured feels authentic and genuine to their celebrations," says Anne Marie Carroll, founder of Wedding Weekender, adding that "a lot of their parents' wedding videos and childhood moments were captured on [camcorders]," creating "a big sense of nostalgia for the 'home video' style."
