registery and guests

How many items should be on the registry per guest?

Um, I'm pretty sure there's no guest to gift ratio.  The number of items guests buy you will depend on the cost of the items and what they're comfortable spending.  Just register for what you need and a little of what you want and be done with it.

Salespeople will tell you 4 gifts per invited guest or some dumb rule like that, but guess what?  They are salespeople.  It's their job to get people to buy crap they don't need. 

Register for what you need not useless crap just to fill some moronic ratio.

Haha, I don't know. Register for what you need- what is left over, you can buy yourselves with the completion discount and if guests run out of things to buy, you can either add more or they will just buy you clothing.

 This - make certain to have a wide range of prices for folks to choose from.  I would say variety in price of registry items trumps any sort of ratio...if there is some sort of ratio.
