This is not something I tried to get... it just showed up in a email few minutes ago titled account activity. Where do I begin? Her Wed date is not till May 2009 should I call her now? I know the name she is a friend of a friend.
 
Congratulations! I'm dying for my first registry.

Ok I was hoping for more direction! :rolleyes: Please
 
Jenni, I got mine a few months ago and I have no contact information for the happy couple. They went and registered themselves on my website (referred from a friend of mine). I have the same ???

Hope someone has some advice for us.
 
I can't give either of you the advice you're looking for since I've never done one, but Danielle they had to put an address in, right? Send them a nice (gasp!) handwritten note - a congratulations on your upcoming wedding, looking forward to working with you, please email me or call me with your phone number, etc. etc. etc.

If for some reason they registered without an address, or you don't get access to those, then ask your friend for their contact info.

I'm afraid if they don't hear from you they won't follow through because no one is taking care of them.

Good idea. I think I will have to do that because I received an email from PC that they registered but no contact info.

I love that I'm picking up a card today! Good tip... any others?
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do first when I receive my first bridal registry?

The first step is to review the bridal registry details provided by the couple. Make sure to familiarize yourself with their selected items and preferences. This will help you understand what they are excited about and how you can assist them in making their selections.

How do I communicate with the couple about their registry?

What if the couple has items on their registry that are out of stock?

If you notice that some items are out of stock, inform the couple promptly. You can suggest alternative products that are similar or offer to keep them updated on restock dates. This shows your commitment to helping them get what they want.

How can I promote the bridal registry to potential guests?

What should I do after the registry closes?

Once the registry closes, follow up with the couple to thank them for choosing you to assist with their registry. You can also offer to help with any last-minute needs or questions they may have as they prepare for their wedding day.
