Who knew?
https://www.dominosweddingregistry.com. Now why would I start a blog with a website link, lower case “h”, no less. I’m a writer for goodness’ sake! But this is no place for kidding around… go ahead and take a look. I was as surprised as you are. Pleasantly surprised.
The other night I was picking up dinner for me & my boys -- 1 medium cheese, 1 medium pepperoni, cheesy bread x2, and cinnamon twists. I’m in the running for Mother of the Year. So while practicing proper social distancing etiquette at the Domino’s outside walk-up window I was perusing their website on my phone and spotted those delightful words… Wedding Registry. Yep, right there on the homepage tucked between “Do Not Sell My Info” and “Email & Text Offers”. Stood right out. And you know what happened next? I don’t have a bride in sight, but I clicked on it and away we went, smiling at their fascinatingly delightful pizza-making brilliance.
I mean, look at that photo. The beautiful table. The artwork. Two slices of pizza with a heart in between them like a new family crest. I’m swooning. How could you not feel the love?
So my inner giggling turned to sheer “these people are genius” in a matter of seconds. Now I’m not so sure I would go with the $45 wedding party recharge (aka: One More Slice Before “I Do”) while they freshen up their hair & make-up & bow ties in between pre-wedding photos and the ceremony. Great idea, but way too risky … those perfectly hot & gooey cheesy drippings are going right down the front of every one of those pretty dresses. I can see it now. And no amount of Tide-To-Go’s will fix that. So let’s just find another safe space in the day for this spread… I know there’s one somewhere!
Howevahhh, besides an absolutely beautiful Wedding Registry site page, prepare to feast your eyes. Oh, and your mouth is gonna water. But remember, this is only about them and your credit card. Unless, of course, YOU order the One More Slice Before “I Do” and I say, “yassss!”.
Now, where to begin? Well, at the beginning is always best…
The 2am Bachelor Party Feast for $60. There’s not a single person among us who can deny how amazing fresh, hot pizza tastes at 2am. Enough said. And don’t ever look back -- 2am pizza comes with no regrets.
Cater the Bachelorette Party, also for sixty bucks. Yep, girls can eat.
The Wedding Night at $25. Alright, I can go with this one. It’s so true that the bride & groom have at this point probably gone about 24 hours with little to no nourishment. Champagne doesn’t count protein-wise, and after cleaning the cake off their faces they really didn’t eat anything measurable. So yeah, a private little pizza feast -- not a bad idea.
I’ll take Dancing With My Slice for a hundred. Not kidding. This is the end-of-the-reception fuel. So many wedding venue contracts require at least some clean-up efforts by the wedding party. Nobody’s leaving empty-handed. And this part’s not for the faint of heart, ...trust me, I know. Little secret… being on the wedding planner’s behind-the-scenes-crew, this part of the evening will take you out. We’re talking time for leggings, a big comfy shirt, and your favorite sneaks. And food. Hot, gooey food. Do it!
And then there’s Married But Chill for $15. After the fact, and always perfectly timed. Quick, hot, fresh and neither newlywed has to cook. Go.
Thank You Card-A-Thon. That’s $30 well spent, my friend.
Post-Honeymoon Adjustment to Real Life. Truth. With a simple twenty-five dollar fix.
An Excuse Not to Cook for twenty bucks. You spent $20 on this one and they’ll be thanking you for the rest of their lives.
Bust Out The Fine China. $25. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Pizza Night. Three excellent opportunities to use the new fancy dishes. Bon Appetit!
And, Low Key Date Night for $30. “Cheesy pizza to pair with their cheesy movies.” Nobody can say that better. Well done, Domino’s. This one brought tears to my eyes with its perfection and an instant image of Noah & Allie and the eighteen-hundredth time watching The Notebook, all hail Nicholas Sparks.
Domino’s -- you are pure genius. Now, if KrispyKreme’s got a wedding registry…
With all due credit and complete respect to Domino’s Pizza, Nicholas Sparks and The Notebook, KrispyKreme, and Tide-To-Go!
