I would try Babies R Us…not exactly a really fancy store, but they have some very nice things and helpful salespeople…they might suggest things that you really need but don't know that you need. They have a wide variety of price ranges in the furniture too.

The basics for the baby's room are crib, dresser, changing table, and -optional-a chair with an ottoman or a rocking chair for night feedings.

You can buy the baby's bedding as a set…but you should buy three or four extra sheets also…because until you get good at changing diapers, they will leak. The comforter that comes with the crib set isn't for use in the crib until they're at least 1, but it makes a nice wall decoration and also helps absorb some sound if it's on the wall.

Read about childproofing the baby's room before you start decorating…better to have it as part of your plan than to have to go back and do it later.

Keep in mind that at first, a bassinet in your bedroom may be where your wife's most comfortable keeping the baby…I know a lot of people who've decorated a gorgeous nursery…and a year later, the baby's still sleeping in the parents' room.
