Tips for setting up your registry

You should set up your registry at least six months before your wedding.

You should set up a registry at two to three places. If you like more than three stores then set up a joint registry through Myregistry.com that will allow you to register at multiple locations and puts all of your items on one site.

Create a large registry. Guests will be annoyed if they try to buy something at the last minute and nothing is available. It's not rude to ask for lots of stuff... it's practical.

Register for at least two times the amount of guests you'll be inviting.

Select gifts from different price ranges so guests can mix and match to fit their price range.

Periodically check and update your registry. Eliminate or replace items that have been discontinued.

Sing up for the online option so guests will be able to send the gifts directly to you instead of having to bring them to the wedding or ship them.

The majority of gifts are bought two Fridays before the wedding so make sure the registry is updated.

You can also set up a registry for your honeymoon at HoneyLuna.com. It allows your guests to give money for your honeymoon or pay for excursions.
