Something I would never post on Boston.com!

Okay, so everyone saw my save the date. I put a sticker on the back that leads to my website. My mom saw it for the first time today and one of the first things she said was: "Oh, your registry, begging for gifts, are ya?!" She says she was just kidding, that its fine, but with all this talk on Boston.com, is it okay to do so?

hmm.. people go crazy over this subject. I am not sure. I am not registerd nor will I be (already live on my own etc.. etc..).. But it's on your website right? If it's not in the invitation then I assume it's proper and ok? Don't quote me on that =)

Forget the insanity on boston.com, no one is ever right on there. :-) According to what I've read, it's perfectly acceptable to post registries on a website. As a former wedding guest, I LOVE getting that kind of information early. It's helpful. I've never thought it was tacky or "wrong". I am putting my link to my website on the save the dates too. I think it's a great idea!

I absolutely have mine on our wedding website... There's no better place for it, I think. We don't all live in nor are getting married in the same towns where our families live and our moms/MOHs don't know everyone on the guest list anymore... I think if it weren't on our webiste, at least 50% of the guests wouldn't know where to find it without asking me personally! I really believe the majority of guests appreciate it. One or two might sniff a little, but really, they all love you :)

Putting your website on your save the dates which leads to your registry is very appropriate and helpful to your guests.
This weekend I got registry information with the invitation. That was gift grabbing in my opinion but what you did was thoughtful to guests and NOT gift grabbing. So, don't let someone's rude comments ruin your day.
