I live in Brooklyn and so do most of my guests. There aren't too many places to register so I decided to register on Amazon for most of my stuff. Should I register at another store just in case there are people who don't use the internet or should I just keep it as it is and maybe those non internet people will just give me money?

Re: Registry Problem, need your help
I would def find a real store to register in. I know many of the elderly don't have computers and would be greatly insulted if the only available registry was online.
My cousin lives in BK too, she registered at Linens & Things.

register at a place that they can physically go to. older guests will appreciate it.
try places like target, home depot, bbb, lnt, macys. these seem to be popular with liw brides.
target has nice things at decent prices for those guests who have a tight budget.

We don't have any elderly guests but I guess I could try linens and things. What do they sell there?

Well most people register for at least 3 places. This way you give your guests options to where they can get your gift, and what is most convenient for them. So try like BBB, maybe macy's they have a great rewards program and for every gift bought off of your registry you earn points and at the end after your wedding they send you a gift card for the amount of points you accumulated. Other choices, fortunoff, crate and barrel, pier 1, williams & sonoma

I would def suggest a 'real' store. A lot of people like to go and pick the item out in person. HTH

I only registered at one place. It was fine, some people gave money, some gave gifts.
