So I got the information from someone to set up there registery through the website. I do not have a personal website, so I was setting it up as if I was that person.

It said the consultant can not take bridal registries at this time!!!:cry:

I'm in my first 30 days, is that why? So if a guest wants to do a registry I can't do it until I'm qualified?!!! How is that right or fair?
 
Sorry but you can't set up a registry until your qualified.

the only reason they were doing was to help me out, since it's not really a big wedding.

I guess I should give it to my director to set up.
 
If it is a little way off, maybe you can do it after your qualified.

it's april 11th. I could do it after, but she was going to send the invites next week. Maybe I can get the addresses for her and send the registry info later in post cards or something for her. I should be Qualified by the end of the month.
 
If you can that could help you both.
 
Maybe she'll host a regular show for you instead?

She's too stressed out right now. She's trying to find a new job and in the middle of it all, planning a wedding just a few months out. She did place an order for my open house though, but it was for gifts for other people. I told her she needed to do the registry to get things for herself, not knowing I couldn't do it.
 
Why can't you make up some kind of card (business card format) for her to hand out...with yor name and phone # on it? You can collect the orders and submit it as a show.
 
She can at least make a Wish List... Have her look at the website (the general one will be fine) and write down all the items she wants. Better yet, give her a new S/S catalog and a highlighter and tell her if she will mark up what she wants, you'll be sure people know about it.The reason you can't set up one if you are not qualified is the mess it would be if you didn't qualify. The Wedding Registry is open for 90 days past the wedding date so that makes a different. She can still help you out by letting you know what she wants. There is several cute ideas on Wedding Showers on here. Maybe one of those will work for you!
