I registered at BBB the week after we were engaged. im glad i did ive already got my pots and pans, my keurig, toaster oven, and a few other things. Ive received presents for my birthday and xmas. Like ususally FMIL buys me clothes which I never wear so I told FH to tell her to buy off the registry and both her and FSIL did.

Ok so GUEST give MONEY on Engagement Parties??
Sorry but i am new to this... I dont believe ppl from my countr have E-parties... or even engagement... So i am tryin to understand that,,,,
I think that engagement parties are fairly new here too I never heard of them until about 10 years ago. I'm probably wrong though. We're not having one, all the $ is going to the wedding.
Oh Ok... Because I never heard of them UNTIL i got engaged! lol...
But ppl are suppose to give money to the engaged couple?

Re: Registry Question
Thanks ladies. I guess I'll go register for a few little things that we could use now, and save the bigger stuff to it gets closer to the wedding. I guess there are always the people who are going to buy a gift instead of gving money, so I'd much rather get something I wanted and registered for than something that we wouldn't really like or use.
Thanks again!

Ok I think u should then just for few things.... I heard in Engagement Party's some ppl will not give gifts...
Yeah I heard this too. I could never imagine going to an engagement party and not giving a gift (even if it's something small) but I guess thats jmo!
I've only been to one engagement party and so it was really new to me and I didn't know if gifts were expected so i looked it up online! Of several sources, they all said they were NOT expected at engagement parties, and showers are when you gift.
So I brought something small and sentimental but I felt really bad because many people brought gifts!
Can't believe internet let me down!
ETA: And it was at the engaged couple's house, like a BBQ so i DEFINITELY thought it was an informal, no gift affair!
