Interview with The Bridal Registry Expert at la Terrine

Who are You and What is Your Title and Role at la Terrine?

My name is Caroline Baroody and I am the Bridal Specialist at la Terrine, home of some of the finest dinnerware NYC has to offer, where I offer wedding gift suggestions and help newly engaged couples put together the perfect Bridal Registry that's custom-fit for their lifestyle. I have been in the Bridal/Home Industry for 10 years and was hired by la Terrine to be their exclusive Bridal Specialist.

When and Why Was the Bridal Center Created?

The Bridal Center was opened on September 23, 2011 and was conceived from the high demand of newly engaged couples in New York City looking for a friendly environment and intimate service where they can find a wide variety of wedding gift suggestions.

What is the Wedding Registry Essentials Brochure and How Can it Help?

The brochure can be found on either our website at www.laterrinedirect.com/bridal or in-store and is an in-depth explanation of the bridal registry at la Terrine. It offers a Bridal Registry checklist to make sure that each couple has everything they need. When finished reading the brochure, we offer a step by step guide to creating a Bridal Registry that is perfect for you.

What are Some Tips for Setting a Proper Table?

Whether you are having a party, sitting down with family and friends, or celebrating a holiday, the pleasures of eating at a beautiful table help to make the meal truly memorable by customizing it to your liking. For a formal dinner you may want to use your finest dinnerware, such as those made by VIETRI, and include all of the appropriate tableware where flatware and utensils must be geometrically spaced. For casual dinners you are free to use your everyday dinnerware which can include things like fun glassware and linens.

What are Some of the Favorite More Traditional Wedding Gifts Now Available?

Some of the more traditional wedding gift suggestions include Italian dinnerware, flatware, glass and stemware.

What are Some of the Favorite Less Traditional Wedding Gifts Now Available?

Some favorite, less-traditional wedding gifts now available through our Bridal Registry are colored steak knives by Claude Dozorme made in France. Other less-traditional wedding gifts would be hand painted ceramic bowls, trays and a number of fun serving pieces by Deruta of Italy. A current trend is the use of mixed materials in serving pieces such as wood/metal, glass/pewter and many others.

How Available are You and How Do You Help?

The Bridal Center located at 280 Columbus Ave is open 7 days a week. I can always be reached by telephone at 212-362-2122 or via email at bridal@laterrinedirect.com. Please feel free to call or email anytime to make an appointment.
