Tips #2 - Bridal & Wedding Gift Registries
Bridal & wedding gift registries are a big help
to everyone, so don't hesitate to use them.
The gift giver knows you're receiving something you
want and will really appreciate. Also, there's a high
probability that you will have one less item to exchange or
return. |

All of us have friends and families scattered
across the globe. Almost every major department store offers free bridal
gift registries and online store fronts making it easy for
anyone...anywhere to purchase the gifts you really want. Tracking items
or updating your wish list by computer and viewing updated information
as they are purchased also reduces the chances of receiving duplicate
gifts and the time & effort involved exchanging or returning them.
You should create a shopping list together with your fiancé (Home Depot
has a bridal registry too!) and register for items from a varied price
range. Providing a range of prices to your guests creates a more
comfortable gift buying experience, though be sure to put some high
ticket items that you really want or need as well (often several friends
or relatives may purchase an item and gift it from the group). Gift
cards make great presents as well, even if your guests don't purchase
from your registry...you may receive a gift card for one of the stores
on you list.
Many stores have registry consultants. Be sure to ask about upcoming
specials and sale items and ask them to provide a printout of your wish
list.
1. Determine what stores and items the two of you
could use to begin your lives together.
2. Include items from a varied price range to create a more comfortable
shopping experience.
3. Let all your family and friends know where you have registered.
4. When planning bridal showers include registry information with the
invitations.
5. Be excited to know that many of the gifts you receive will come from
your wish list.
