6 Things You Must Know Before Setting Up Your Wedding Gift Registry
4. The budget for your gifts
It is impossible to recommend a specific price bracket for the gifts you wish to enlist in your wedding registry. The budget of your gifts will depend on many factors including the type of your guest list, scale of your wedding and the stores you have set up your registry with. Keep in mind that you should include gifts of all price ranges so that you have something that matches the comfort level of each guest.
5. The time of setting up your wedding registry
Wedding registries are not meant only to cater for gifts that a couple wants to receive on their wedding day but also the gifts they would like to receive before their wedding for different events. These events include a hen’s party, bridal shower or an engagement party. Set up your registry as soon as you get officially engaged so that you give guests enough time to buy gifts for your wedding. This will also ensure that you can make use of a few gifts for your pre-wedding celebrations.
6. Policies of the store or website you are setting up your registry with
Before you set up your wedding registry with a store or a website, know more about their policies and discounts. For example, some stores allow couples to keep their wedding registries even after their wedding so that guests can pick gifts for birthdays and anniversaries later. Some stores have clauses on return policies so if you change your mind about an item that has already been purchased by a guest, you can return what you don’t need.
