What is registry: Definition and 200 Discussions

My niece has a registry through me and got a gift sent to her. She opened it and there is nothing in there saying who it was from. The sender did request not to give me their information, but I would have thought that there would be some info in the box so she would know who it was from...

I'm ready to sign up for one, but I have a few questions first: 1. Do you have to have a site in order to accept wedding registries? 2. After I qualify, will I still get my site free for 90 days? Will they just extend my renewal date? 3. Have you ever done an Internet show...

Okay, I'm getting nervous - due to the fact that I'm going to have a lot on my plate for the next 18 months, I'm really looking to beef up my bridal registries and reading the threads here aren't giving me much hope.:( So I thought we could share some ideas of what to do to not only get more...

I have a former hostess who has a PC registry(mine) and the wedding is in September. She LOVES PC, but did not want to have a PC shower, because she did not want to limit shower guests as to what they could purchase. I just got my 2nd order from the registry (grill pan) and this is the first...

I am trying to place an order for somebody under the wedding registry I have and it is asking me to create an account for that person!?! I typed my website address in my address bar. I thought since I set up the registry that I would only need payment information and everything would be sent...

Has anyone else simply put on the wedding registry cards to go to pamperedchef.com and click on "wedding registry" to find the bride or groom? I'm just wondering if it might be more confusing to customers to do the longer .biz PWS addresses. I'm thinking the main site might make it easier to...

Hello, I received a registry that I have no idea who they are. I was wanting to send an initial email or letter to them. Does anyone have an email or letter that they send first introducing themselves to bridal registrants? Please share. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) Brenda

I just got my first registry lead, but turns out she was visiting a friend, but lives in Canada. She's excited about it, and I want her to obviously start her registry on my PWS, but wanted to see if anybody has any experience with this. I'll probably call HO soon, but thanks for any advice!

I had a bride to be set up a registry last fall and just yesterday I got an e-mail saying she started a new one. Should I just leave it as is or should I have her somehow combine the two? She put "No Contact" on her registry but she works with my mom and I have her number. Is there a way for her...

Okay... HELP! I am doing my first Bridal SHower the day after I get home from conference. I had emailed the host (again) to ask for the bride's wish list and tonight I got an email that she had signed up for a Wedding Registry! SO ... I know I can mesh these together... however I don't even...

I was looking at my IPT and couldn't figure out where the extra sales came from. Low and Behold... a $338.75 registry order! And it's a bride that didn't want contact, and the customer didn't either. No work for me, and a paycheck to boot!

I'm going to post two letters that my good friend Cherie shared with me. I hope they can help someone. Let me know if you can't open them. I use Word 2007 and some have problems with it. Bobby

I have had plenty of contacts via bridal fairs and such, but I can't get anyone really excited about the registry to the point where they actually get any sales that matter. I just got done calling leads from a bridal fair and I'm so discouraged. What is the secret?!!?!? We've been at...

Hi everyone, I was on vacation this past week in South Dakota (beautiful state by the way) and while I was gone I had a registry appear under my name. I don't recognize the names at all so they either met me at a bridal expo or got my catalog from somewhere. I only just started in February...

I have a show tomorrow evening. The Host asked me today to look up a Bridal Registry and bring the list. She said "the bride can't make it to my show, but there will be a lot of people here from our church who want to by for her from her PC registry." Then she said "I think the Bride wants to...

I have no idea what I am doing! She has already set up the registry, and we will be doing a wedding shower. Do we need to print her registry to have at the shower to people know what she wants? Also, does Pampered Chef send her invites or do I need to do that? I know they said something...

How long after a couple creates registry will it take to show up on your website? A friend created a registry this weekend but its not showing under my website; however it shows up when you do a search. Is there a delay to show up on consultant's website or could she possibly created it...

I have two brides that were referred to me regarding possible wedding registries, but I am not qualified yet. :( I only have 2 completed shows b/c 2 of my catalog shows have fallen through. I have a couple of shows scheduled for July and one for August so far. I don't want to tell them that...

I have just booked my first bridal shower and wedding registry. Can someone please explain to me the difference in benefits to the bride between the two? Are registry gifts shipped right away? If she has out of town friends that can't make the shower, does she come out ahead if they order...
