Registry Wording for Wedding Website

Victoria, on April 16, 2018 at 10:05 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 4
Hi gals & guys,

FH and I have lived together for 2 years and owned our own separate houses before then. We really don't need anything and if we do, we just go out and buy it, so I've let my MOH and mother know that we would prefer not to have a shower.

That said, we did put together a small registry at my sister's behest of things that would be nice to have in case guests want to give a gift for the wedding. I plan on publishing the link on our website but I don't know how to word it without it sounding like we're expecting something when we're not. I toyed with the "you're presence is enough for us" or some variation of that and it just sounded unoriginal and cheesy.

Does anyone have any advice on the wording to put on our registry page? We don't want guests to feel we expect anything from them, gift, money or otherwise, as they are all traveling and we are really excited just to have them all there. But we also want to offer some guidance in case they do want to give a gift.

Thanks all!

    I wouldn't put anything other than "we're registered at..." And then give the store name

    Another great thing you could do, if there is a special charity that you both love, ask that in lieu of a wedding present, people make a donation to the charity in honor of your marriage!

    Just say "Victoria and Albert are registered at____"

    The "your presence is the only present"stuff is just playing coy.
