“We registered for a lot just because we wanted people to have options,” says Jessie Lydiard, who married Jonathan Lydiard Sept. 8, 2007. “Showing people what you like; that’s what it was about for me.”
“I’m a very practical, budgeted person,” says Joell Keck, who married Ken Keck Sept. 8, 2007. “I didn’t want anyone to spend $100 on something I’d never use.”

“Make sure you register for stuff you’re actually going to use because you may end up with something and say, ‘What … am I supposed to do with this?’” says Jonathan Lydiard. The couple lives in Bellingham.

“We registered for a whole bathroom set and we actually ended up having to take it back because when we got it home, we realized we have a pedestal sink and nowhere to put all of it,” Jessie Lydiard says.
“With me I was more about the style, I wanted everything to be natural colors,” says Joell Keck. “I didn’t want everything to be all sunny.”
HE SAYS
“Being a tall guy — I’m 6 foot 3 — I like the full body towels and not the little square-foot towels,” Jonathan Lydiard says.
HE SAYS
“If I was going to register again, I would register for things like a nice electric razor or a new electric toothbrush; more gadgety-type things,” says Jonathan Lydiard.
“I’m big into movies, so I wanted a combination VHS-DVD player so I wouldn’t have to get a separate VCR and a DVD someday,” says Ken Keck.
SHE SAYS
“I like to cook and I play a lot with different knives, so one of the things we registered for was a set of santoku knives,” Jessie Lydiard says.
“Neither of us had lived on our own before, so we started with the basics,” says Joell Keck. “Plates, cups, silverware, toaster oven, stuff like that.”
HE SAYS
“Being a guy, I don’t really think about all the practical kitchen stuff like measuring cups and skewers,” says Jonathan Lydiard. “I wanted all the really expensive stainless steel pots and pans and the George Foreman grill.”
“The only thing I was picky about was a new pizza cutter, because I didn’t want it to be too big,” says Ken Keck. The couple lives in Bellingham.
“I just liked the look of this wine carafe and decanter set, and we don’t even drink but that was the only thing we got two of,” says Jonathan Lydiard.
HE SAYS
“I was just hoping to open up one Xbox game,” Ken Keck says.
HE SAYS
“My friend got me a bunch of CDs of the music we grew up listening to,” says Ken Keck. “That obviously wasn’t on the registry but that was one of my favorite gifts.”
