Hi folks,

I have a ROOKIE question.

I have a bride registered with me, for TPC. Her family has done a bridal show for her as well, which the aunt was the "Host". I think I've goofed something up big-time.

Should the bride's "wish list" at her bridal show be DIFFERENT from her registry list?

How does this work?

I had the shower, which the aunt hosted, didn't get BIG sales, but did "OK". But they ordered the items that she is registered for...at the show.

Are the bride and groom being cheated out of their "earnings" because the host is getting the host benefits from sales at the show?

OK, see, I'm so confused, I'm not making sense.

I'm encouraging the bride to go back and put more stuff on her registry after September 1, when the new products become available, but I'm thinking I've made a big goof.

Can anyone enlighten me??

Thanks so much!

Deanna
 
Did her aunt offer to give her the host benefits or at least half? For my bridal shower in May, the host gave the bride all of the shower benefits, so that way she wasn't cheated out of benefits from her registry. If she isn't giving her the benefits, I would tell the bride to add things to her registry to make up for the sales she didn't get at the shower.
 
Is there ANY way at all to combine these? I know I can "fulfill" the orders off the registry but then my bride does not get all of her host benefits as a grand total as she would off the wedding registry? Do they have to pay a higher shipping as my actual shower if I funfil my wedding registry items? I am a newbie to this also, so I want to make things right but I think I messed up because the invites have been sent for a wedding shower with a link for all out of town guest so that they can order off this too since they live in NY and can not make a NC show.... OK all my pro friends here... HELP ME OUT!!!! Pretty Please!!
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between bridal show sales and a bridal registry?

Bridal show sales typically involve vendors showcasing their products at an event where engaged couples can purchase items directly. A bridal registry, on the other hand, is a service offered by retailers where couples can create a list of desired gifts that friends and family can purchase for them.

How do I set up a bridal registry with Pampered Chef?

To set up a bridal registry with Pampered Chef, you can visit their website and create an account. From there, you can select the items you want to include in your registry and share the link with friends and family so they can purchase gifts for you.

Can I purchase items at a bridal show and still add them to my registry?

Yes, you can purchase items at a bridal show and still add them to your registry. However, it’s a good idea to keep track of what you buy to avoid duplicates. You can also inform your guests about what you’ve already purchased to guide their gift selections.

Are there benefits to using both bridal show sales and a registry?

Yes, using both can maximize your options. Bridal show sales allow you to see and buy products in person, often at special event prices. A registry helps ensure you receive gifts that you specifically want and need, making it easier for guests to choose gifts that fit your style.

What should I consider when deciding between bridal show sales and a registry?

Consider your personal preferences and needs. If you enjoy shopping in person and want to take advantage of exclusive deals, bridal shows may be appealing. If you prefer a curated list of items that guests can easily choose from, a registry might be the better option for you.
