I'm guessing on your wedding registry?? As far as what you want new or replaced?

Start with your main function areas, like the kitchen. I'd find a mover's website that offers packing/check off lists. Go through what you have, check it off if it's in good condition. If it's in need of replacing, put a star. If you don't have it and would like it, put an X or use different colored markers.

And don't get too crazy with putting things on the list, and don't always go with just high end stuff. Get reviews of products you would like to have, and put the one that is affordable on your list.

Heck you might discover things you didn't know you had. It'd be good idea to get of anything you don't use at this time too, to make way for new stuff.

One room at a time, and the rooms that need the most... like kitchen/dining, living, bedroom, and then bathrooms.

Don't forget to add bed & table linens. Good sheets in neutral colors will last you a lifetime if properly cared for, stored, and rotated. Also they are expensive. You can always get a "trendy" duvet to match the style you like. If you have a couple sets of white/cream sheets you will always have something that matches. If you are having a shower, add towels in neutral colors (so they can match a future bathroom, unless you already have a house) they are more affordable.

Get good cookware & knifes, if you don't have them---they should last a lifetime. Really think about the food you cook today, and what you may cook in the future and what you need to prepare your dishes. Does your family eat a stew at Christmas? Do you want to keep that tradition, then you may need a dutch oven, etc.

Really think about China. Most people register for it, but never use it. You may instead prefer a fancy everyday set, that is dishwasher safe but can be dressed up.

Let me know if you have any questions. I ran the bridal department at Bloomingdale's for years. I generally told the brides to plan a family gathering at their house, including a menu. Then figure out what you need to make and plate that menu--that is usually a good start on a registry. Since everyone's family is different, I was never a great fan of lists that were pre-made.
