The Wedding Nest is an Australia-based wedding registry site that knows that for some couples decorating their home with the same IKEA or Crate and Barrel couch just isn’t an option. This service is unlike any registry you’ve ever seen. How, you ask? They offer original artwork, let you customize your gifts, and they style your wishlist like a lookbook so you can easily imagine your future designer home.
In addition to visuals you’re bound to salivate over, they also offer incredible customer service. That’s all due to owner Katie Burt. Katie has a degree in Interior Design and has spent years helping people craft their own unique style. Now she’s offering up her impeccable design skills to the masses with The Wedding Nest gift registry.
We had the pleasure of sitting down with Katie and learning more about what The Wedding Nest can offer couples like you. Here’s what she had to say:
