This is the fun part, folks!
Brandon and I are so excited that we’re less than five months away from the big day! I can’t believe how quickly time has passed – yet how much still needs to be done before we say “I do!” One of the more enjoyable aspects of wedding planning is putting together the registry. In our case, we only have one because WeddingWire makes it incredibly easy to keep everything in one place. Rather than telling your guests that you’re registered at seven different places, you can just send them to your WeddingWire registry, which keeps everything organized for you.
Alright, if you’re a little confused, let me break it down for you:
First, you’ll set up an account with WeddingWire. They’ve been a massive lifesaver for me during this wedding planning season. From finding vendors to keeping my guest list in order, and now hosting my registry – they’ve got me 100% covered and feeling a lot less stressed!
Second, you’ll head to your favorite stores to register those dream items you’ve been eyeing. Target, West Elm, Amazon, etc. Go nuts!
Third, just go to your WeddingWire registry and import your retail registries. It’s super simple, and within seconds, you’ll see all those pieces from different stores popping up on the page!
Last, but not least, share your registry on your wedding website, on your invitations, or even to social media and start watching those great gifts roll in!
Since Brandon and I still have yet to find the perfect place to live (crossing our fingers that happens soon), our registry is mostly filled with kitchen appliances and electronics. B’s must-have item? A panini press! Mine was a record player that tied for first place with a clothes steamer! Priorities, right? 😂
Donna says
I love how you can keep it all in one place. How perfectly convenient! I can’t wait to explore your registry!

We didn’t have these services in India when I got married. Life would be so much simpler and I would have gifts I wanted 😀

Priorities for sure! I honestly think a panini press and a record player are two musts if I do say so myself! WeddingWire sounds amazing and now I just want to plan a wedding. It’s always so much putting together a wish list. Thanks for sharing girl!
And can’t wait for everything else you have for #WeddingWednesday! xo, Lydia

I loved registering SO much — it was so fun! I was pretty practical with what I registered for, my husband however wanted all the not-so-practical things that people don’t usually buy (like a 52 inch TV and surround sound!) LOL!

love the idea of being able to register at different stores but yet see and shop it all in one place! that was always an annoyance for me when I was wedding planning! I’ll have to tell my future sister in law about this! <3

OMG we are nearing on 4 months away, kind of freaking out over here! I love Wedding Wire, they’ve been such a great resource for us during our engagement. I’m a little bummed we are missing out on a registry now that we’re in London. It doesn’t make sense to have our family/friends spend so much on shipping, and honestly we want LESS things while we’re here. We decided to go with Honeyfund – basically a polite way of saying give us cash money LOL. So excited for you guys!

We just used Zola for our wedding registry but we do have our wedding website through WeddingWire because it’s been great at keeping things organized.

Having a wedding register sounds so fun to “shop” around! We’re doing a wishing well instead as we’re looking to buy our first home and already have our things since we live together.

Wedding Wire was such a cool resource for me when I was planning our wedding three years ago! We didn’t use the registry part, but a lot of the other things I definitely took advantage of. Thanks for sharing! Xo
