Submitted by Advage on Fri, 2007-04-13 00:36.

What: Nowadays, more and more couples live together before they get married, or at least live on their own for a period of time prior to the big day. As a result, it’s becoming a lot more common for the new husband-wife combo to already have that blender, soup spoon, or kitchen gadget by the time they roll around to registering. TheBigDay is a registry made for couples who don’t want more pots and pans. Now, friends and family can chip in for anything on your honeymoon wish list from 500 flight miles to massages for two in an exotic bungalow.
