Outside the Box - Wedding Registry Ideas
Your guests want to buy you what you really want, that is the whole purpose of a registry. You pick out what you want, making it easier for guests to shop for you. Great idea! However, you are no longer limited to the offerings of the big box stores. There are so many other options for wedding registries. From online shopping, to international marketplaces to gifts for your honeymoon. Big box store registries are losing steam, and for good reason. I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond last week to shop for my best friend’s bridal shower gift, and to be honest, there was nothing exciting about picking out a bed topper and 4 hand towels. In fact, there is nothing exciting about opening a bed topper and 4 hand towels! However, the $300 hairdryer was hilarious…that is so her, lol!
Here are a few of our favorite wedding registries for Beachy Brides. We may receive a small commission if you decide to use their registry, but this does not affect your pricing at all.
Amazon Wedding Registry
Amazon is the new marketplace and it has EVERYTHING, with the world’s largest selection, making it the perfect place to start your registry. Also, being online, it is so easy for your guests to find your items, purchase and have them shipped. They can ship to you directly, or to themselves to wrap and bring to the shower. There is so much flexibility. Plus, Amazon Registry is offering a percentage discount for you when you create your registry and free shipping over $25 (subject to change). Don’t like the gift?

Plus guests never even have to leave the house.
