When to register?

When to register?

Is there an appropriate time to register? My fiance thinks it is too soon (wedding in April). My sister (MOH) has asked me to. Is it too early? Is there such a thing as too early?

we registered in august for our july07 wedding at fortunoff and BBB. at fortunoff, we were advised against registering for our linens until feb to minimize the possibility of them being discontinued. im still nervous about other stuff (appliances) being disc. ive heard horror stories, but we were excited. also, our birthdays and christmas are between now and then, so were hoping to get some stuff off the registry for them too!

We registered nearly 18 months before the wedding. (Right after we got engaged.) I say register now because it's makes holiday shopping so much easier. We got a bunch of stuff for both Christmases before the wedding, and birthdays.

We did wait on picking our linens though til about 4 months before the wedding.

YAY for an April bride!!!!

she probably told you to register because they are planning your shower. I think it is not too soon to register...

I say take the cue from MOH Register now, you have nothing to lose.

Re: When to register?

as long as you are 'officially engaged' it's not too soon to register.

it seems that it depends on your schedule for wedding related events. if you're having an engagement party, bridal shower, jack and jill and how soon you're having these will best determine when it would make sense for you to register.

I don't think its too soon.. i think its about a good time to register for an april wedding. Figure your shower might be in february sometime... so the fall would be a perfect time to do so. I haven't yet registered for my June 2007 wedding.. but i will be registering before the end of the year... my plan is to be registered before the holidays.

i think its safe for you to do it soon.....but also i know when we went they said 2x a yr stores bring out new styles for bath sets and beddings. So the next 1 they told us is the fall....so since thats so close id prob wait and see what comes out. But def do it within the next 2 months or so!

I would register soon. They may change things later on but you can always update your registry but I would get things on there now. This way people can buy holiday gifts or gifts for other occasions too!

My FH loved it too...I think he went a bit overboard though! He scanned a $15 toothpick dispenser!
