EEK! I've got 3 facebook shows going on and I had someone say yesterday that they wanted to do a bridal registration with ME for their May wedding! I've read some previous posts about how consultants are handling registries by using their websites and putting the wish list in the Calendar/News section of their website (clever) but I have a few questions:

1. Does anyone have a sample letter/email that they send to their bride? I didn't see much of anything that is 'current' in the Files section.

2. I read about a consultant that creates "I am Registered with TPC" business cards. I found one such document in the Files section. Does anyone else have a sample they would like to share?

3. How do you handle the host specials? Do you just hold the "registry" open for one month? I guess that is my biggest hiccup right now.


I've only had one bridal registry 3 years ago and it wasn't really successful, so I'd like to know pointers in how you make yours work..

This wedding is May 11, 2013. She's in Texas. I'm in Illinois. I don't know her personally, so those are my other small hurdles to work with.

I'm going to continue to browse through the threads to see what I can find. I hope to gather enough information to be able to send an information packet within the next week.

Thanks in advance!!

too many questions? lol
 
I did a bridal registry this year, the bride's mom wanted to be very involved in it.
I gave her a catalog with highlights in it showing what the bride wanted and her mom showed it to family and friends for them to order of off. 1. I didn't do a letter, but she was a close friend. 2. I made up a sheet in excel for bridal registry cards sorta like Macy's and Bed Bath and Beyond gives you, except I printed them on blue paper, so they would stand out from the other places she's registered at. On the paper, I put my phone, email, and name on it. Most of the people just called me. I however don't have a website yet, but I believe it would be very beneficial for this. If you give me your email, I can email it to you. 3. On holding the registry open... She basically had two different parties. I opened it at the beginning of the month of her bridal shower, but her shower was at the end of the month. If your girl's shower was at the beginning of the month I'd hold it for the previous month's special. And did the same thing for her wedding. You could also have a facebook wedding show for her, I would however do it with enough space in between the shower and the wedding if it was the only thing that you were going to do for her so people have money to spend on products.
 
I've got a FB show open right now and spoke with a Bride-to-be a few minutes ago that will be booking off of it! Her's will actually be a Pampered Bride shower...a first for me, but I'm excited about it.Any suggestions about what to demo?
 
Would you be able to email me info on the bridal registry/show. [email protected]. Thank you.
