How to build a registry guests love
- 1.
Aim for two or three gifts per guest
Not everyone gives from the registry, but it helps to have more options than you need. For 100 guests, 60 to 100 items is a comfortable range, and you can add more as things get bought.
- 2.
Spread out the prices
Most guests spend between $50 and $150, so put most of your list there. Add a handful of gifts under $50 for friends on a budget, and a few bigger items that family can go in on together.
- 3.
Ask for what you will actually use
Walk through a normal week together and notice what is worn out or missing. That list beats any trend.
- 4.
Add a few wishes that are not things
Gift cards to a favourite local restaurant, help with a garden, or a donation to a cause you care about. Write them in as wishes so guests have ideas beyond a checkout button.
- 5.
Share it once the invites go out
Put your registry on your wedding website and let it do the talking. Most guests look there first, and it saves you answering the same question a hundred times.

Registry questions
Around the time you send save-the-dates, and at least two months before the wedding. Shower guests usually shop from it too, so if you are having one, start before those invitations go out.
A good rule is two to three gifts per guest. For a wedding of 100 people, 60 to 100 items gives everyone choices at different prices.
Yes. Most couples do. Use it to replace things that are worn out, upgrade the basics, and ask for the things you would not buy yourselves.
No. Tap the heart on anything you like and it is saved in this browser. Print it, email it, or move it to a free WeddingHelp wedding website when you are ready so guests can see it and mark what they bought.
On a WeddingHelp wedding website, guests tap "I got this" after buying, and the gift shows as taken care of for everyone else.
