Shower Invite...with or without registry info?

So do you print registry information on the invitation or not?
Do you include the little cards they give you when you register?
Or do you hope people find out by word of mouth?

Or any other ideas.

Re: Shower Invite...with or without registry info?

I've seen it both ways. For my shower they put the little cards in. A shower I went to a few months ago, they included the registry info right at the bottom of the invite in a bit smaller print. I think either way is fine!!

Re: Shower Invite...with or without registry info?

You can either include the registry cards along with your invitation or you can write where you are registerd on your invite.

I think that it's okay to put the registry info on the shower card, because that's the point of the bridal shower-to shower the bride with gifts, so gifts are expected.
I wouldn't put the registy cards inside a wedding invite though.

Thanks.
I definitely know that no registry info goes on the wedding invitation but I just wasn't sure about a shower invitation.

Re: Shower Invite...with or without registry info?

For the most part, I have seen invitations with registry cards included. Most recently, I have seen them on the directions card. Of course you should do them however you like.

Re: Shower Invite...with or without registry info?

Strictly speaking you are not supposed to include registry in any kind of invitation..but I think for a shower its a bit of an antiquated rule. Especially since the whole point is to 'shower the bride' with gifts. Ive been invited to many showers and I just received my first shower without registry info and its quite a pain to track down the registry.

On another point, just for the look of the invite, I like when it matches the invite or is included with some other element rather than those little thin registry slips the store give out..but Im a little crazy about stuff like that.

Stef...you have sealed it for me. I am going to go with it on the invite in a font that matches.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

If there is more than one then you should put both of them on one seperate card
