Using a Bridal Registry

A bridal registry is a gift management service provided by giftware and department stores that simplifies gift giving. Registry attendants help you pre-select and record those items you prefer as wedding gifts; such as kitchen utensils, appliances, linen, china, crystal and furniture.

Once your registry list has been compiled, it is available to guests as a shopping tool. It clearly states which gifts you prefer, associated patterns, prices and which gifts have not been purchased. Your guests are able to make purchasing decisions that meet their individual budget without wasting time, and you receive a gift that you prefer, that matches, and won't need to be returned.

If a single store doesn't have all the items you need, feel free to register at more than one. Choose stores that carry a wide range of items by manufacturers you prefer, have several branches for out-of-town guests, and won't insist on sending notices informing your guests that you are registered. Registry notices can be included in invitations but it is more socially acceptable to have your mother, the groom's mother and your wedding attendants verbally spread the word as to where you have registered.
