Wedding Gifts: Williams-Sonoma

One of the most amazing aspects of getting married is the support you get from those around you. As I'm sure most of you understand, by the time the wedding was over, Matt and I felt so loved that we felt like we should be gifting our family and friends, not the other way around. Regardless, we were thrilled to have received such loving items and hope to keep them in our family for years to come.

You all know from my post last week how much I love Williams-Sonoma. I love to cook and bake. I love the feeling of the store and the quality of their products. I worked there last year during the holidays after Matt and I had moved to Memphis and I was still in-between jobs. And working there made me like it even more. Scary, huh? We registered at Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn and Target. While we loved everything we received, this week I'm going to take you through some of our favorites.

Oval Stoneware Bread Basket

We received this as a shower gift in a dijon (yellow) color. I keep fruit in it on the kitchen table during the week. It is a gorgeous basket that can be put in the oven and will then radiate heat to keep your bread warm. Mmm.

Emile Henry Bakers

I love all the Emile Henry items we received. I chose the caramel color but they come in red and a new nougat color that is simply delightful. They are fabulous casserole dishes and I love having matching items :)

Breville Panini Press

This is hands-down one of Matt's favorite items, but we both love it. It's even better than you think it will be. You can literally make anything on it.

Le Creuset Dutch Oven

I don't know how I cooked without this. I am in love. Have been since the day I got it.

Pilluvuyt Queen Anne Pitcher

While this isn't the same pattern as our China, I new I had to have it. Matt thinks it gives in to my Shabby Chic tendencies since I've used it as a vase and shelf decor, and not yet as a pitcher. Can you blame me?

I will be registering at Pottery Barn and Macy's; I found out through calling a W&S store that they will take Pottery Barn gift cards (sister stores).. so I'll be able to pick up some fun items! I'm really loving that bread basket! :)
Thanks for sharing!
