Have you set a date, yet?

If so, you will probably want to register for your bridal shower. Also, some people prefer to give gifts instead of money as wedding presents. You don't need to have a huge registry, but your friends / family will appreciate it when your shower comes -- and so will you!

If you don't have a date yet, I wouldn't worry about it right now.

We registered, and we didn't have an e-party either.

Ditto on that...I also didnt have an engagement party so I didnt rush to register, but did it last month so people could get us stuff for Christmas and then for the shower which will probably be in Feb or March.

we registered about 1.5 years ahead of time because through our engagement folks got us gifts (for Christmas too)

I agree. That's what we did and I would definitely recommend it!

I agree, you should register for your bridal shower. I am not getting married until Sept. 2007 and I have already registered.

We just registered this past weekend because both his and my family kept asking us where we were registered since they wanted to get us an engagement present and Christmas presents. We are not having an e-party either.

Nothing bad could ever come from registering! First off, somebody WILL buy you SOMETHING off your registry. So if even one person has an easier time buying you a gift, it's worth it since you'll be getting something YOU want as opposed to something they THINK you'll want. Second, most places offer you a discount to buy whatever wasn't already bought for you off your registry. So if there is stuff you actually need, this is a sure way to either get it from a guest or buy it at a discounted price yourself.

We're not having an E party either, but we registered anyway. I figured I will be having a shower, and what if some of my family members or friends want to get me something off my registry for Christmas, a girl can hope, right?
