Yeah, I've had my domain at Dreamhost for several years. I've been happy with it. Their basic plan will do everything you want except the shopping cart.
I would suggest signing up for your domain through damn near anybody except Verisign. (I personally have used joker.com and godaddy.com.) Whoever you pick as your web host will probably offer to register your domain for you. Their price for the registration may or may not be competitive, so shop around. If they tell you they can't host a domain unless you register it through them they're pulling a fast one.
If you register with one place and host with another, you will need to update your registration information so people will know where to look for your server. This is usually an easy process, and your web host will usually have a set of instructions already written up to explain your settings.
And whatever you do, make a note of when your domain registration expires and make sure you renew it!!
