Registry for zoom wedding?

Marie, on May 18, 2021 at 10:08 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 5
June 13, 2021 bride here. Things are looking bleak for having in-person guests. We already postponed from Sept 2020 and are considering going ahead with the 10 people restrictions and a livestream for friends and relatives, but we aren't sure what to do about the gift registry. We removed it from our wedding website since we have already been living together a couple years so we don't really need any more things (we were just going to replace some tired hand-me-downs and get some pretty serving bowls/platters so we're ready to entertain whenever covid is over), and feel awful to even ask for anything if guests can't attend in person but a few guests have asked if we're registered anywhere.
Should we re-add the registry to our website or just provide it to anyone who asks? What are other virtual wedding couples doing?

    Gift registry is great for guests asking about getting you something for your wedding. As you did say about not needing anything while living together for a few years now, monetary gift is acceptable to put towards an account for when you need it in the future or honeymoon when ready.

    I would say add it back to your website.
    It’s great that some people understand that due to Covid, you’re not able to have a grand celebration that you would have hoped for.

    Are you planning to have a make up reception in the future? If so, maybe hold off on the registry until then?

    I would add it back to your website. As you’ve said, a few people have asked for it. You don’t want to have to keep giving it to individual people every time they ask. And I don’t think anyone will feel pressured to buy you a gift if they’re not attending. But some people will definitely want to get you something or send a card to congratulate you.
