Ok, it's 8:30pm on March 15th and we just received an email from Jean Jonas about the wedding registries. As of March 15th...which is TODAY, they won't be accepting any new registries until the functions can be redesigned for the new website and applications. The is much more information in this email concerning dates and active registries and gifts to the brides and all that....but NOTHING about when this function will be active and up and running in the future. Is anyone else ticked about this? Their reasoning for it not being a "big deal" is because only 1% of consultants use the registries. I know a lot of us that have registries that we might rely on bringing in sales. Why wasn't this developed BEFORE they announced the new website and apps? Why is the email going out ON the day that is the deadline for accepting new registries.
I'm really irritated because I just spent a lot of money having a table/booth at a wedding expo promoting out wedding registry and now...none of the brides that signed up for it will be able to use it unless they already set it up and their wedding is before June 15th. I think they should reimburse me for my expenses!! Yes, I'll try and turn them into at least a wedding shower, but that's not what we were promoting and what interested these brides. Sorry for the rant...but it's better to get it out here than maybe send this to the home office..??!!??
