Great Way to Update Registry
I got an "if I have to go, then I will" when I asked my significant other what date he would like to do the Wedding Party event at Crate and Barrel. That attitude changed within the first 10 minutes in the store. He was running around like a crazy man with that scanner! It was just us and a handful of other couples, so there was lots of space to be able to look at things, and we could walk through the store at our own pace. The sales people were amazing! I felt no pressure at all, and they provided really helpful info. No one was hovering around us, but when we were standing around looking all stupid at the blenders, someone was right there to help. This was a great experience, and I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to get their registry set up quickly and simply.

So much fun!
We went to the C&B wedding event and had a wonderful time. It was the first registry we did and so far is the only one! The staff was extremely helpful and the breakfast treats were amazing.
We would recommend this event to anyone that wants to have a fun time registering for their special event.
Happy shopping and best wishes to all~!

Great Experience
We had such a fun time at the Crate & Barrel Wedding Party! It was great to be able to have free access to the store without a ton of shoppers, the staff was very friendly and the refreshments were awesome.

Great Time
This was the first registry that Matt and I attended and we had a really nice time. The event was very well thought out and we were able to register with ease. The employees they had working the event were very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. We will definitely be recommending it to others!
thanks again!

Very fun event and staff very helpful
It was nice to have the store closed and opened for just the couples who registered for the event. We were able to really see the products, have staff right on hand to answer questions or help with finding things and enjoy some beverages and snacks. We felt like we were VIPs and made registering for our wedding special.

Wonderful Experience
My fiance and I had a wonderful experience registering at C&B! The staff was very helpful and was there when we needed someone. They gave us space though and let us look around without bothering us. The breakfast that was provided from Zinc in Charlotte was also amazing! My fiance enjoyed being there the whole time and thoroughly enjoyed using the scanning gun :) I would definitely recommend people to register at one of their events!

So much fun!
The registry party was a blast! Not only were we spoiled with yummy food and beverages, but the staff was so helpful! They answered all of my questions about the different gadgets and helped me make decisions. I was particularly confused as to how to register for my plates and bowls, but they showed me how to get exactly what I wanted. We will be going back in the Spring to update our registry.

Gets you in the wedding spirit!
My fiance and I have been engaged for about six months and we're getting married next November. We've been taking our time with getting a jump start on the planning process and this event was a great way to get us in the wedding spirit. We had a designated time on a Sunday to focus on home items we want look at for the rest of our lives. Being able to interact with representatives from different kitchen appliance companies was fun too. It was a a good time and I totally recommend this event to other couples.

Great fun!
My fiance and I were told we should participate in one of these events by some friends. We were a little afraid it was going to be an extended sales pitch, but it wasn't that at all. They spent a few minutes at the beginning explaining the scanners and making a few recommendations about what to register for, then set us loose in the store. Because the event was held when the store was technically closed, it was much easier to get to the displays. They also provided coffee, food, and product demonstrations which were really neat. All in all, it was really useful and fun.

Registry 101
My fiance and I enjoyed the C&B event for the most part. This was our first time registering, which was a really fun experience for us getting familiar with things we might like. Whereas it was really nice to be able to walk around the store freely, asking the occasional question, scanning as we liked, we were a little disappointed with the food selection - there was coffee (which was near empty), a few grapes and (small) cut pieces from a small loaf of bread to choose from, so we left quite famished and thirsty. Based on the reviews from other events, and the description detailing the wedding parties events, it seemed as if catering was more of a focus in other stores. Moreover, we love C&B, and were excited to be scanning items for our registry together. It was a fun way to spend a morning, and definitely added to the excitement of our wedding. Furthermore, we didn't expect a "swag" bag. That was a really nice surprise.

Great way to register
This was a great way to register. There was hardly anyone in the store except a few other couples registering as well. We took our time, didn't feel rushed and had questions answered right away by store associates. They were really helpful to in explaining the process of scanning and how to register for sets of items. We also liked the snacks and breakfast they had for us, especially since it was early in the morning and we did take a few hours to make up our minds on what to register for :). Over all it was a great way to register and I highly recommend it.

Great Time!
This was the first "registry event" that my fiance and I attended, and it ended up being the best! There were plenty of employees to make the experience manageable and we could always find someone to help if we needed it. Plus, it was great to have the freedom to look around before the store opened. AND you get a great free gift! We had a blast and I'd highly recommend it to any couple looking to register!

Great time!
Even though we were already registered, we decided to attend to update our registry and had a blast. I was able to talk to a Kitchenaid vendor who showed me some of the awesome attachments available for the mixer and she had me sold. It was also so nice and relaxing to have the whole store to ourselves with just other couples. Great event C&B!

Necessary Fun!
Crate & Barrel created the perfect environment for Tommy and I to get our REGISTRY on, if you know what I mean. I knew this was something we needed to tackle together and the Wedding Party was the perfect place to start. Everyone at the store made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable. I never felt overwhelmed or pressured. Just completely calm and capable! We had a little too much fun as we registered for about every comfortable sofa we saw, fortunately, with the online capabilities, we are able to edit our list whenever we want. I would HIGHLY recommend the Wedding Parties to any engaged couple looking for a fun way to kick off your wedding planning and events! xo

Fabulous
We both really enjoyed the event. It was nice not to have to jockey around tons of other shoppers, while trying to pick out registry items. There were only five or six other couples at the event we attended. There were a couple of vendors there showing a few of the products! We actually loved that! They were not pushy, but informative. We ended up changing our minds on an original pick, and choosing one of the products the vendors were representing!

Had a GREAT time at the Registry Event!
My fiance and I are pretty far out on the wedding spectrum... we have a little over a year and half before we're getting married, but want to get everything done in advance.
We had a great time at the event and found a TON of stuff we needed to add to our registry that other stores didn't (at an affordable price).
We registered for all our bar and glassware and will probably be adding more to our registry as we get closer to the event (more seasonal stuff).
Everyone was SO helpful and it was nice to have time to speak with employees about the benefits of certain items and taste delicious foods.

Great Experience
My fiance and I have loved C&B for years and were excited about registering here, the wedding parties event made it even better. We registered the event friends of ours and had a great time at the store. The employees are very helpful with their advice and suggestions. Do attend one of these events, you'll be so glad!

Great first time gift registry experience
We enjoyed having the experts at certain stations to talk about the products. It was very educational. Just an idea would be to have an interior designer in the furniture area to incorporate potentially two different styles and tastes and better coordinate the selection.

Calm Experience
This event was so nice! We debated going, since it was pretty early on a Sunday morning, but decided it could be worth it. The staff was very friendly and helpful and even served breakfast before we got started. I think the best part about this was that it was before the store opened, so we could take our time, and get all the help we needed from associates, plus we didn't have to work around other customers. I'm so glad we went!
