Registering sucks

MrsRebecca · August 2009

I think we have about 10 items on it so far because I got frustrated and overwhelmed and gave up. Thank goodness we started early! My first shower isn't until November so I have plenty of time.

i had about 50 items on mine and my hostess said that was too few and that i better go back and add more! so ive just been adding random stuff that i dont really care if i get or not just to fill it up! i agree it sucks, its very overwhelming. i dont know where you registered, but the quick-start registry on BRU's website was very helpful for me.

I am seriously considering doing the rest online.

I did mine online. It was very nice and relaxed and I did it in a couple of hours

I liked it because I could look up reviews of everything as I made decisions. I would recommend it!

I feel overwhelmed about this task! I feel like how will I know what I need or what is good?! So I am making my older sisters who together have 7 kids come with me and tell me what is great and what is a waste but we are asking for a lot of gift cards and most of my family is all for gift cards!

I did most of my wedding registry online it was great, but the one problem I ran into was a lot of online shopping leads to adding things that can only be purchased online. most of my friends and family are not online shoppers so half my registry was basically unusable

I ran into this problem with my wedding registry, but I learned from it and have been careful about trying to add things to our baby registry that can be purchased either online or in the store!!

To the OP, sorry it was so overwhelming to you! I love working on our registry online and then you can do it at your own pace! That might be a good option for you!
