How to Create a Bridal Shower Registry

Bridal shower gift registries are traditionally created by the bride-to-be so that her bridal shower guests know what gifts she would like to receive. The greatest benefit of creating a bridal shower registry is that guests know exactly what to buy, and there will be no duplicate gifts. These registries can be created online through a wide variety of retailers, such as Target, Macy's and many more. Using the Internet, you can quickly and easily put together your own bridal shower registry.

Instructions

1. Create a list of possible retailers you would like to register with. Almost all department stores have the option to create an online registry. MyRegistry.com allows you to add items from any store onto one registry that your guests can view.

2. Decide which of the stores you're going to register at. Once you have made your decision, create an online registry account on their website and begin browsing their selection of inventory for gifts you would like to receive.

3. Add items to the registry by clicking on them and selecting "add to my registry." Since you will likely have a separate registry for your wedding, you may choose to add only gifts specific to you to your bridal shower registry. Popular bridal shower gifts include lingerie, baking appliances, bed linens, and home decor. Try to choose a variety of gift ideas for your guests to choose from and include gifts from all price ranges.

4. Confirm your registry items. Write down the link to your specific gift registry and be sure to include it on the invitations to your bridal shower.
