How To Choose Your Bridal Registry Stores

With all the bustle and decision making surrounding your wedding preparation, sometimes even a fairly simple decision can start to sound very daunting. One such decision might be what bridal registry stores to use for choosing what to stock and decorate your home with. By keeping a few simple ideas in mind, your decision can be made much easier than it might seem.

What's Best For You

To make the process of creating your registry easier, choose bridal registry stores that you are already a regular patron of. It's probably not the best idea to register at a store that you are relatively unfamiliar with, even if they are well known to many others. By picking stores that you already shop at, you will know that you can find things you will like, and will already be familiar with some of the brands, styles and policies at the store.

Once you've considered what stores will carry your type of merchandise, take a look at how their registry department is run. Is there a separate department? If so, you can be fairly sure you won't run into too many problems. If there is no separate department, you may end up working with less experienced employees and computer systems.

What's Best For Your Guests

Choosing a store or stores that you already love is important, but you want to be sure that those stores will be convenient to at least most of your guests. If you have friends and family spread far and wide, you wouldn't want to register only at a specialty boutique in your city.

Also make sure you will be able to register for gifts in a wide variety of price ranges. Your poor student friend will be happy to buy you the napkin rings you love, while your parents might want to buy you an entire set of China.

Look into how long your store registry will remain on the books. It is quite common for friends who are unable to attend the wedding to want to purchase a gift for you after the fact. Also, some of the items that have not been purchased for wedding gifts can be given on other occasions throughout the year.

With some bridal registry stores there is the option open for the bride and groom to purchase the remaining unpurchased items at a discount. This is very helpful for the couple that doesn't get some of their favorite or most necessary items as gifts, and can help you to have the complete home that you dreamed of before the wedding, without breaking the bank. Money received as a wedding gift might be well used here.

Whatever choices you make, keep in mind your own convenience, as well as that of your guests when choosing your bridal registry stores.
