Shopping for your dress is one thing, but shopping for your wedding registry might actually be even more fun. It’s all about designing your future home and experiences with your soon-to-be spouse. Whether you’re looking to furnish your apartment, stock up on cash for a down payment on a new home, or book adventures on your honeymoon, today’s registries offer something for everyone.

After all, your registry, like your wedding, should reflect who you are as a couple. That’s why we’ve created the ultimate registry list and divided it by category. Below you’ll find everything from traditional registries at heritage retailers to online cash funds and even charitable collections, where your guests can support nonprofits with causes close to your heart.

Here, the best wedding registry sites and stores.

Zola.com

Want a site that handles gifts, cash, honeymoons, charities, and even pet gear? Zola is your best bet. Add items and experiences from the massive Zola store or from any online shop to create your perfect registry. The guest experience is a dream too—guests shop directly through Zola rather than being routed to a third-party website for checkout and even put in for pricier items designated as group gifts. Couples can also score 20% off the items on their registries for six months after their weddings. Besides being able to register for pretty much anything, Zola also offers wedding planning services. Host your wedding website on Zola (for free!), where you can manage RSVPs, add your registry, and design your own matching wedding invitations.

MyRegistry

Not into the aesthetic of a single brand or store? That’s where MyRegistry comes in. If you prefer to pick one-of-a-kind gifts from unique boutiques online, you can do just that with this universal registry. Use the site to add everything from home furnishings at sites that don’t have their own registry services to experiences, like cooking classes and skydiving lessons, to your gift wish list. Literally nothing is off limits! Plus, you can add a donation link to a nonprofit you support with your time or funds, allowing guests to give in your honor.

Blueprint Registry

For the couple looking for one seriously all-inclusive registry, there’s Blueprint. This online registry lets you add products to one list from big-box retailers or from your favorite local store. You can search for and add gifts by room, create group gifting opens for expensive items like furniture, or include cash-based gifts for your honeymoon, date nights, or a favorite charity. Blueprint also helps you out with the inevitable undertaking of thank you cards: two weeks after your wedding, Blueprint Registry will send you a master list of each gift you received, who it was from, and a return guide.

Amazon.com

From towels and bedding to electronics like the Amazon Echo, this massive e-commerce site allows you to register for just about anything you could imagine for your home. Instant Pot? Of course. Fitness equipment? Yep. Amazon Prime TV shows? You got it. Search by popular items, home goods, and celebrity registries (up now: Jennifer Lawrence) to inspire items for your won. You’ll get a 20 percent off completion discount, plus free two-day shipping on eligible items and returns up to 180 days.

Target

It's no secret that this retail giant has become hugely popular, and if you are one of the many fans of their "designer goods for less" credo, you should certainly stop by Target to register. You'll also get a 15 percent completion discount to use in-store and online for those last few gifts on your list. Target also offers a "group gifting" feature that allows a group of people to go all-in on a bigger gift for the couple. If cash and experiences are your thing, Target has partnered with Honeyfund, Uber, Princess Cruises, and more, so you can get bedding, bath, and a vacation.
