Hi!
If you're looking at this page, then you've asked someone where Kathy and I have registered. This is were we're going to keep this sort of info, so you're in the right place.
China
We've picked out two patterns of china: a formal set from Wedgwood in the Amherst pattern, and a set of Dansk everyday dinnerware called Concerto Alegro.
For the Wedgwood, we've registerd under Kathy's name (Blake) with the Waterford Wedgwood Outlet Store in Orlando. They don't have a website, but they do have a number of ways to contact them. Here's their info:
The Waterford Wedgwood Outlet Store
52-53 International Drive - Suite "E", Orlando, FL 32819
Phone: 1-800-858-3965
Fax: 1-407-351-5488
Email: Orlano01@wwusa.com
The Dansk is available through Bed Bath & Beyond.
Bed Bath & Beyond
This is our main registry. It's available online through their website, or at any of their brick and mortar stores, or by calling 1-800-462-3966.
Macy's
We have set up a second registry with Macy's. They have the Lenox flatware we've chosen to go with the china. It's called Imperial Frosted and picks up on the deco accents in the Amherst nicely. In fact, if you're considering the china, Gainesville's Macy's has a fair selection of the Amherst in stock at clearance prices, so it may be worth calling them at (352) 333-2357. They've put it away for us.
Martin's Family Appliance Center
We really need a new washer/dryer setup. Of all the things in the house(like the AC system, which has broken 3 times in the past month. It should be good for another year or so.) that we're wanting to replace, the washer and dryer are tops. With that in mind, there's a particular set made by a New Zealand company called Fisher & Paykel that we're desiring. They're rock solid and do an excellent job on the washing. They're energy efficient and will last forever. The models we're specifically interested are the DEGX1 dryer (a TOP loader!) and the Ecosmart GWL11 washer.
We've set up a registry (pool for contributions, really) with Martin's Family Appliance Center, the local dealer for Fisher & Paykel. They're located at 1809 N. Main St. Gainesville, FL 32609, and their phone number is (352) 372-0684. If you'd like to help make our dream for a new washer-dryer a reality, give them a call. Ask for Chris or Travis and mention "Blake-Gowan". They'll know what's going on.
