I NOW PRONOUCE YOU MAN AND LUXURY ITEM.

A Wedding Registry can be a disaster waiting to happen, endless hours of choosing countless useless objects you will never use.

Do we need a fry pan? No. Do we need a clothes dryer? No. Do we need a curling iron? Ummmm never!

So, when it comes time to put a list of 'wants' and 'needs' together, you need to take everything into consideration, especially the 'SHOW OFF' factor! So here is part of my DREAM REGISTRY LIST. After all, you need somethings to hand down to the kids!!

1. VENT BLANC Crockery. When the in-laws pop over for a cuppa and a digestive, serve it to them on frenchman Jean-Marie Massaud's beautiful ceramics. Leave the BACCARAT for special people. www.timeandstyle.com

2. 'SEMINUDE' Lights. Dress your naked lightbulbs in something pretty, like these little dresses, that fit like a glove. Because lights are what surrounds us! www.r-p-s.jp

3. MICHAEL ZAVROS Art. When the other half bores the hell out of you, have something exquisite close by to stare at. And make sure you get it in the settlement. Done deal. www.michaelzavros.com

4. MAKOTO YAMAGAUCHI Cutlery. These twisted pieces of stainless steel will be the centre of attention at your first 'grown up' dinner party. At least you know you'll have something to talk about with your below-average guest,

5. CHIAKI MURATA CD Player. Perfect for the bedroom. Play the Soundtrack to your lovemaking (I recommend Massive Attack's PROTECTION) with this sleek little sound system. www.hers.co.jp

6. LIPLA Double Bed. Sleep well, Spoon well, in this eye catching Jean Marie Massuad designed bed. If green is'nt your colour.....tough! Zzzzzzzzzz

7. CAFETIERE by Jasper Morrison. Leave the espresso for the professionals. Home-made instant is back in fashion. If it's good enough for the Golden Girls, it's good enough for you!

8. YSL Tribute Boot. Kick him to the curb with one swift boot. Cheaper then Divorce!

9. ALLEGRI Rainwear. Now although requesting personal gifts are a little risque and somewhat cheeky, keeping protected from Mother Natures wrath (especially after being kicked to the curb) is important. Do it in style with an Allegri Trench. This Florentine Rainwear specialists have had some help from Viktor & Rolf!

10. CHIAKI MURATA Vacuum Cleaner. The Classy, Sexy, Eloquent way to Suck!

11. AMERICA Lamp. Jaime Hayon has designed one of the best lamps I've seen. Buy two and use them as bedside tables. Rack up before bedding down! www.metalarte.com

12. HELLA JONGERIOUS Plates. These sweet little collector items are great for nothing more then staring at, putting anything in them should be illegal! www.jongeriouslab.com

So there you have it, several ideas for your upcoming nuptials. It's your wedding, you should get what you want, after all, you need something to cushion the blow! ;)
