1. A Mercedes C Class
This newlywed couple decided to ask a lot of their guests, and request one of the most expensive cars on the market as a gift.
2. A down payment on a home
This one isn’t as ridiculous, but it’s still a lot when you think about it. Maybe just ask for cash?
3. Cows, pigs, and chickens
This couple didn’t actually want their guests to show up with a bunch of farm animals. Instead they asked for people to use their dollars to donate towards a cause that supports the well being of animals that wuld be sent to market.
4. Mountain Dew and paper plates
This couple thought “Why ask for expensive China that we’ll never use, when we can ask for multiple things that we use everyday?” And that led to them to turn their registry into a grocery list.
5. 17 Glass bear figurines
This couple has interesting taste, and decided to take their registry and use it to have guests contributeto a collection of theirs. Collecting glass bears isn’t the weirdest thing on this list, but it’s definitely unique.
6. Diamond encrusted wine glasses
It’s typical for a lot of newlyweds ask for dishes and glassware on their registries. However, diamond encrusted wine glasses is asking a lot of your friends and family if you have this on your registry.
7. The family jewels
This wife wrote her new father in-law a letter stating how she was entitled to some of the families heirlooms, like some of the family jewelry. A risky move being new to the family.

This couple requested these items specifically for recreating the head-in-a-jar from the TV show Futurama.
9. A $7,000+ Tiffany’s ice bucket
Why someone would ever need an ice bucket that costs $7,000 is beyond me, but this couple with expensive taste was sure to have it on their list. An ice bucket for a couple that hosts a lot of parties may be a nice gift, but not one at this price.
10. A beer pong table
Here is a couple that knows how to have fun. This couple wanted to keep their fun college years going and decided to put a beer pong table on their registry so all heir friends could enjoy it every time they came over.

14. An invisible fence, for a couple with no pets
An invisible fence is a great tool for pet owners. Keeping your pet inside is an important task, but when you don’t even have pets is this really an appropriate gift to ask for? This new couple thought that it made the perfect gift.
15. Canned goods without labels
This may have not been something that a couple asked for, but instead something they were stuck with.

It was a clever prank on his end, but more of a waste for his brother and his new wife.
16. $40 toilet brush
There are a lot of practical things to ask for on a registry, especially items that you don’t want to pay for yourself.

17. Rock Band the video game
Here is another example of a couple that likes to have fun. Instead of requesting boring things like dishes and sheets, this couple asked for Rock Band the video game.

24. A golfing trip to pebble beach
This couple was hoping to get part of their honey moon paid for by asking for donations to their trip to Pebble Beach. Asking for money is one thing, but asking to fund a trip is a little different.
25. A Vespa scooter
This couple had high hopes that they were going to be gifted a Vespa scooter they added to their registry. Again, something as big, or as expensive as this is asking a lot of your friends and family.
26. Expensive China
China is a commonly requested gift, but one couple went a little over the top requesting a set that was over $200 a plate. When you don’t even eat off of it that often, what’s the point of even needing dinnerware this expensive?
27. Gold tooth picks
The particular set of toothpicks the couple was asking for was over $180. If something like this is truly something that you have to have, just get it yourself, because making your friends and family buy it for you as a gift is asking a lot.

This item was specifically listed on a couples registry for home protection. Forget asking for things for the slow pitch team, this baseball bad request was serving a different purpose.

32. A $2,700 TV
Normally, in a wedding registry, couples stay away from large electronics. The odds that they get something that costs as much as this HD Smart TV are slim, but this couple had high hopes that they would get everything on their wishlist, no matter what the cost.
33. Murray’s cheese of the month club
This couple loves cheese so much they put it on their wedding registry. Not just any cheese, but a cheese of the month club. Talk about a gift that keeps on giving.
34. 300 pieces of glassware
This couple had registered for 50 wine glasses, margarita glasses, champagne flutes, and highball glasses. Their guests not only couldn’t figure out why they would need this many pieces of glassware, but where they were going to put it all.
35. Frozen pizza
When you feel like you already have it all, whats the point in asking for more? This couple knows what they like and knew what would get put to use, so they put frozen pizzas on their registry.

A few guests thought that napkin holders were a unique item to ask for, more so if they are over $50. This couple asked for $75 napkin holders on their registry, confusing their guests on why they could possible cost so much.
41. Engraved metal pet bowls
The problem with engraved pet bowls is that every dog you have is going to have the same name, to make this expensive bowl worth it. It’s thoughtful to include a gift for the dog, but he can settle for dog toys just like most.
42. Uno playing cards
Everyone loves a couple who loves game night, so asking for games is nothing surprising. However, most people go for more challenging, adult games rather than kiddie card games like Uno.
43. A set of $1,200 pans
This may seem like normal price point for a large collection chef level quality pans. But the Reddit user that posted it said this was for 4 pans, and 4 pans for that price on a wedding registry is far too much to ask of your friends and family.
44. $30 bathroom hand towels

Similar to the straightener, one bride’s husband asked for an Xbox. Hopefully they game together if they get it, but it’s pretty clear who picked this one out.
