I don't want to purchase a wedding gift—I want to purchase something for myself at Zola! Can I do this?

Absolutely! We are an online store and welcome you to shop our collection from over 500 of the best brands. You can add items directly to your cart while browsing zola.com instead of adding them to your registry. Then you can simply proceed through checkout just like you would any other online store.

We've also launched Zola Home - feel free to check it out, and happy shopping!
