Gifts, gifts, gifts! You can expect that your family and friends will spoil you on your wedding day and for your bridal shower so why not make it easier for them by setting up a registry. This is a wonderful opportunity to receive some things that you and your groom to be wouldn’t necessarily be able to buy on your own, or take this an opportunity to possibly receive some really cool stuff!
Traditionally, places to register were at department stores like The Bay or Sears where everything you could possibly need is under one roof.
Nowadays, where some brides and grooms often live together and create a home before they walk down the aisle, they are finding that they don’t need the traditional gifts as they already have them.
What better way to use this then to think outside of the box and register at other domains that can help you out. Local travel agents can set up an account on your behalf where your guests could contribute to your honeymoon or around the world trip and mortgage companies such as Bridal Mortgage Registry can set up an account where guests can help contribute to your first or new home together!
Firefly recommends still having a registry at a home store because everyone is entitled to 1000 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets! And while you and your new hubby and enjoying lying in your luxurious bed, you can write all the thank you cards for every wonderful gift you received!
