Many of today's wedding registry services are still centered around helping couples outfit their homes with various products but they do so in a way that appeals to the needs of modern consumers. Examples of this can be seen in shops that offer finely crafted one-of-a-kind artisanal goods that give consumers more of a connection to a product's unique story and origins.
Knowing that many couples who are getting married are more interested in collecting experiences than objects, many registries put their focus on helping loved ones share experiences in the form of concerts, travel adventures and more. Both SpinCycle and Drybar teamed up with Zola to offer experience-based offers for modern couples.
Similarly, a growing number of brands like IKEA, Costco and Domino's offer their own wedding registries for those who are particularly passionate about the products they offer.
