I am having my engagement party on Feb 25th and some people have told me I should register and some say I shouldn't because you register mostly for shower and engagement you mostly get monetary gifts.... so should I register or no?? thanks

We registered also! But not for everything, just basic things like dishes, china, silverware, stemware, vases, and stuff! We received a lot from our registry and money!

We did just b/c I know that some people feel strange about just giving money. But we registered at three stores.....Macy's, fortunoff, and Williams-Sonoma. Now I feel that is too much and mb we should only register at two.....

i had an engagement party, and I did not register ... we got a lot of envelopes though, and we used the money to pay part of the hall....

I would like to register somewhere for a couple of things- only reason is because people are rsvping to my mom and asking- I dont want to end up with doubles or things we don;t need. FH disagrees though
