Question re: Registering

Question re: Registering

Hi girls

Peter and I haven't registered yet, so I thought I'd do it on my week off after the bar exam. But my grandma seems to think it's too early. Do you girls think I should register in August or hold off? I'm assuming that my bridal shower will be sometime in Feb or March.
Thanks girls

Re: Question re: Registering

I may want to do it soon before school starts. trying to get as much done as i can before Sept

Re: Question re: Registering

Ok I think I will then I'm so excited to get register. Ha, I'm such a DORK

I have another question: Where did you girls register? I was thinking of Macy's and Fortunoff's but I've heard bad things about Macy's so I'm not sure now.

Re: Question re: Registering

I registered already...we were just told to watch the registries in case some things were discontinued.

Re: Question re: Registering

Does the store send you an email letting you know that it's been discontinued? Or do you have to check each item?

Re: Question re: Registering

Hmmmm good question about things being discontinued. Have fun registering. I did some of mine online. I have not gone to the store yet.

Re: Question re: Registering

we registered at fortunoffs and crate and barrel

Re: Question re: Registering

Re: Question re: Registering

We registered at Fortunoff and Bed Bath and Beyond shortly after we got engaged, which was 2 years before our wedding. People wanted to get us engagement presents, so we received a bunch of stuff off our registry already. There have been a few discontinued items along the way, but we just register for new things when that comes up. It's not too early at all. Have fun!

Marcela - GO AND HAVE FUN!

Re: Question re: Registering

We haven't regsitered yet either. thinking of starting this weekend. We are going to register at Fortunoffs and Bed, Bath & Beyond. I have recently had 3 bridal showers to attend and my experience with the ones at Macy's was horrible. They had nothing she registered for. It was ridiculous! I had to go to 3 different Macy's to find stuff.

Re: Question re: Registering

we have been partially registered since october! my mom asked us to do it so people could start getting us things we needed for the holidays. i must say, registering is quite fun and the earlier you do it, the more you have to update and amend it. the only thing to be wary of is registering for seasonal items. for example, most stores change their bedding collections every season. have fun and best of luck on the bar exam!!!!!

Re: Question re: Registering

We registered really early b/c of the eparty. We have to add a couple more things and we are done. We registered at Macys and Crate & Barrel. I haven't heard complaints from anyone. The only bad thing about C&B is some of their items are seasonal but I constantly check and call the store to make sure items are still available.
Marcela have a great time registering! It is fun if you make the best of it. Bring a bottle of water too.

Re: Question re: Registering

Hey Marcela! - I think its def. a good idea to start registering. FH and I are registering a little at a time so it's not as overwhelming. We are registered at Fortunoff and Crate and Barrell and are going to register at Tiffany's too once we come back from vacation. I would hold off registering for bedding and bath though at least until the winter because they are always coming out with new things. Go and register and have a blast!! It's so much fun!!

Re: Question re: Registering

Marcela, I would register. Michael and I registered about a two weeks ago. We had so much fun registering at Fortunoff's and a local store by my house. With regards to items being discountined, you can check your registery online ever once in awhile to see if anything has been discontinued. Have fun doing it!!!

Re: Question re: Registering

Go for it! Have a blast!!

I am so excited! We are registered @ TARGET for stuff that i know won't be discontinued-such as a lot of the small appliances. i was waaaaaaaay too excited to wait! I opened our registry @ FORTUNOFF's and added like one thing. the bedding is what i think you should hold off on because that stuff changes so quickly, but then again they tell you if something is discontinued! I think we will fully register sometime in sept. when the craziness of summer is over!


p.s. Marcela--my friends jsut got engaged and booked Floral Terrace for a couple of week after you!! I'm so excited-I've never been there!

Re: Question re: Registering

Thanks girls!!! I can't wait to go.

Sandy: Thanks so much!

Angela: Have fun in Grecce!!

Alison: Tell your friend she made a great choice! I've heard nothing but awesome things about them. So I'm sure she won't be dissapointed!

Re: Question re: Registering

I dont think its ever too early, you can alsways add and delete things from your computer..do it while you have time!! Good luck on your bar you little smartie pants!!

Re: Question re: Registering

I say go for it! We registerd along time ago (we sent out engagement announcements - don't ask) but we actually got some stuff. Now that we are living together we don't need too much so my FI convinced me to put on there a popcorn maker, a snowcone machine & a fondue pot, which I'm sure will get TONS of uses!!!!

Marcela, your test is next week already?!! In case I don't get the chance, good luck!!!!
