When to do wedding registry?

It is fine if you want to start doing your registry now. Just keep in mind that you will need to keep an eye on it over the next year because items often get discontinued, go out of stock, or change drastically in price so you'll need to add and delete things accordingly. Also, most people won't actually look at or buy anything off your registry until they receive a shower invitation so don't be disappointed if no one buys anything for the next 8-10 months.

As Earias said, you can begin anytime, but it's totally fine if you wait until next year to create one!

I made mine early and added to it as I thought of things. Most sites have ideas for you of popular registry items so that took a while to look through and give me ideas. Before my shower invites went out I checked for any discontinued items and made adjustments, and I still am checking each week to make sure I can update if needed.

We started our registries in April for our December wedding. I check at least once a week to add/delete items or to see if anything has been discontinued.
