Bridal Shower Registry?

Since it's a shower you can put the info ON the invite (i.e.: http://www.etsy.com/listing/44553365/liv-custom-bridal-shower-invitation-in?ref=sr_gallery_29&ga_search_query=bridal shower recipes&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=2&includes[0]=tags&includes[1]=title ) or you can put the info IN the invite (those little cards people like Macys gives out.)

The registry is the same. You should have registered for enough items that your guests couldn't possible buy everything.

You should put the registry info on the shower invite, not the wedding invite.

In my experience, most people bring gifts to the shower and bring money to the wedding. Some people do still bring gifts to the wedding but more often than not, it's money.

So here's what I did:

Had only one wedding registry for both the shower and the wedding.

In the shower invite (at the very bottom) I wrote where I was registered. So at the shower you will get items for the wedding, which is mostly kitchen stuff anyway.

I hope this helps!

Mrs Joseph , soooo cute!!!!!!!!! jealous!

Well, people are going to buy you presents for your shower... a lot of family that is coming to my shower is getting me a gift for the shower and then money at the wedding... but i put my registry on there... and I hadn't even really registered yet... haha... but the lady throwing my shower asked for it... I think the whole point of a bridal shower is to get gifts... you can always add more for the wedding...

The reason that you shouldnt expect too many present at the wedding is because you get them at the shower. the registry isnt for just one. its for your wedding. people usually will buy you a present for a gift for your wedding and give it to you at the bridal shower.

Well i guess by now you've gotten enough input that the registry is one in the same. some stores call it a wedding registry and some a bridal registry (which is the older more traditional term, notice it's about the bride and doesn't mention the groom). so you should just create as many registries as you want and make links to them on your wedding website. that's the easiest, most subtle, place to have this info b/c it is with the rest of the wedding details. so on the shower invite they could list the specific places where you are registered, or they could list the url of your wedding website and say the info is there. either is acceptable. for the wedding you won't want to put registry info on the invitation, but you can include an insert (maybe that has directions or some other topic info for the wedding) with directions to visit the url of the wedding website for full details, registry info, attire, etc. basically anything anyone would want to know.

YES! People will want to give you things that you want/need for your shower. You can always update your registery once the shower is over for other things for people to buy for the wedding.

I haven't even thought about it, I'm not registering for any gifts for the wedding (we put no gifts on our website). for the shower, I'm hoping someone buys me some sexy/pretty underthings.

@ sharon- see..that's what i thought..that the bridal shower was meant for sexy lingerie..right? i mean that's what i've seen at past ones i've went to..and lord knows i need something sexy..fh has even told me, "we need to go get you some sexy underwear stuff.." (he hates thongs and likes those boy shorts type)

I think it depends where you're from. i think you're right, for some it goes without saying that the gift is sexy stuff. in my friend circle that only happens if the shower thrower designates that as the theme. there are so many shower types these days, that i guess it's almost like nothing totally goes without saying b/c there are kitchen showers, and round the clock showers, and lingerie showers, etc. if you don't care, let your show-throwers decide. sounds like it will be fun no matter what!

My BM added an insert with our registry info, my bra/clothing size, things I like, fave color, Hawaii honeymoon needs. I got a big assortment of things - some household stuff, beachwear, lingerie...

My mom is throwing my shower for me and absoutely doesn't want people buying off the registry. Her friends threw her a lingerie shower when she got married and she's been dying to do the same for me.

Here's the invite-

Those are sooo cute!!!!! i love those invites! may i steal your idea?? i

Absolutely I've designed all my invites so if you need/want any help just PM me.

Very helpful advice?? Thankyou
