Creating a Wedding Register

For bride and grooms, planning for wedding gifts should also be a consideration. An important tip for the big day is to create a wedding register. A wedding register is a list of gifts you or your future spouse would like to receive on your wedding day.

Creating a wedding register ensures that awkward gifts and doubled up presents can be avoided. It also ensures that guests won’t need to be worried about what to get the newly married couple.

Guests can select a present from the list of wedding gifts which suits their budget and their relationship to you. Gifts which have already been bought for you will be marked, so that guests won’t accidentally double up. It creates a more convenient and hassle-free system for everyone.

Because of its popularity and convenience, many department stores offer a wedding registry service.
