Bridal Registry Time Saving Tip!

You might want to start online first. Look what's On Sale at The Knot Wedding Shop before you start going to stores. They also have bridesmaids gifts, and wedding reception decorations for your table, and supplies for your wedding reception in one place, and be done with your shopping. Their gift registry section has lots of good ideas for your wedding. You can also Find low cost and unusual wedding favors - bridesmaid gifts - bridal shower favors at My Wedding Favors.com. Before you go running off to Macy's department store and use up your valuable time waiting for a store clerk to set you up, it's much easier for you to start your wedding registry online.   Then when you arrive at the store, you can immediately start to populate your wedding gift registry. Choose your items for wedding gift registry online and build your gift list. Then if you decide to head to the store to see China patterns in person, at least your bridal registry will be created, and you won't have to hunt for wedding registry clerks and wait a half hour while they create your bridal registry and type in all your info that you could have done yourself online from home.

You might find one department store in a chain has a better bridal registry than others, better knowledge and skill of the employees in the wedding department. We've heard many brides complain of one store in a chain, while the other stores had great wedding gift registries. With our wedding planning advice, you can overcome difficulties, making your wedding registry experience enjoyable.

I hope this tip helps and one more bit of information for you:

Step up your Bridal Shower

Think outside of the box for your "Bridal Shower". Instead of having the same-ole-same old, try these few little tips to just spice your Bridal Shower up:


Try having a Scavenger Hunt with clues that cover your area and that lead your guest to the secret location of the bridal shower. Make it even more exciting by the first person from your bridal party that arrives at the venue they get a special gift. Maybe a massage or something that person would just love to receive.

Have your Bridal Shower step out the box by having a theme maybe you can set back the hands of time like maybe when your mom was young and have all your guest dress from the 70's or 80's, or have an old Glamorous Hollywood theme where all the guest dress up as stars and starlets from old Hollywood.

Have fun with your bridal shower think outside the box and make some lasting memories for you and your entire guest.

I think they will love it just as much as you will enjoy seeing everyone’s creativity.

Let me know some of your ideas that you have come up with...
