Bridal shower invitations

I used honeyfund.com. You can select your destination and they can suggest excursions for you or you can create your own list - add photos, descriptions, prices, etc. People then check them off your registry list when they purchase them, just like they would in a store. You can choose to allow credit card purchased, but there is a service charge, so we opted out of that and did offline giving (cash) only. People would still check off the item they were gifting and could print out a 'certificate' of the gift they got us. There are a few other websites like this, but this was the most user-friendly one in my opinion for both myself building the registry and the guest accessing it.

It was a huge hit at my shower. People didn't have to go shopping for something and they knew that we would love the excursion they paid for since we chose it!

I think a registry creates less headaches for everyone, no matter how small. You won't end up with a lot of duplicate gifts or stuff you don't want and guests don't need to stress about what to get.

Register or be prepared to get things you may not want or use. You could even do a honeymoon registry. That's what we did and people loved being able to purchase our excursions for us! No stuff, just great memories!

My friend didn't register anywhere thinking people would give cash, but most people ended up bringing gifts and she had a lot of duplicates or things she didn't use. I would suggest registering, even if it's not a lot of things. We registered to upgrade some of our stuff: have one type of plates, cutlery, pots and pans instead of mismatched, etc.

Hi Elysha! I always think it's easier on your guests to do a registry - no matter how small it is! They just want to be pointed in the right direction for gift ideas

You could just add small things or kitchen replacements/upgrades!
