When you are planning your wedding, most people will ask that you have a wedding or bridal registry somewhere so that they know what to get you. Wedding registries not only help out your guests but help you get exactly what you want and save time at the return lines after the wedding. Online wedding registries are very convenient and bride friendly.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Computer with internet access
  1. Step 1

    In most cases, to set up an online wedding registry you must go through a large retailer. Some of the largest retailers with online registries include: Walmart, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, Macy's, and even REI. Smaller boutique stores can also have online registries, but not all of them do. Contact a local boutique to see about their wedding registry options.

  2. Step 2

    If you don't want to house your registry at only a few stores, create your online registry through MyRegistry.com. This site allows you to add items from any store in the world to your registry and send it to your friends and family. It is a great way to keep prices low because you can find the best offers from as many different stores as you want.

  3. Step 3

    To begin creating a registry, you'll need to sign up by creating a username and password. Be sure to record these somewhere near your computer so you will be able to access your registry. Then you can search the site to add items to your registry and get updates about what items have been purchased for you.

  4. Step 4

    The great thing about online registries is that you can update and edit your registry at any time of the day without having to worry about store hours or crowds. Many stores also carry items online that are not in stores, so browsing online makes sure you don't miss a thing.

Tips & Warnings
  • Include the website that you have registered with in your wedding invitation to give your guests a heads up on shopping.
