Hoping you ladies may have some wording for me.

I have a past host that set up a wedding reg for her August wedding. I sent her some cards to enclose in her shower invites and the other registry info a while back.

I was thinking I more than likely should have seen some orders coming in by now. But nothing yet.

I thought I should send her some sort of note or email to remind her to remind the "shower throwing person":) to put word out about her PC registry.

Any tactful words you might have used in a case like this?? Everything that comes to my mind just seems greedy or selfish like.

TIA !!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to remind guests about our wedding registry?

A gentle reminder can be sent through a personal message or a group email. You can mention how excited you are for the wedding and subtly include a note about your registry, perhaps highlighting a few items that you’re particularly looking forward to using.

Should I mention the registry on my wedding invitations?

It's becoming more common to include registry information on wedding invitations, but it's best to do so tactfully. You can include a small note or a separate card that directs guests to your registry without making it the focal point of the invitation.

How can I encourage guests to use our wedding registry without sounding pushy?

Focus on expressing your excitement about the wedding and the joy of celebrating with loved ones. You can share how the items on your registry will help you start your new life together, making it more about your journey than about the gifts themselves.

Is it appropriate to follow up with guests who haven’t yet purchased from the registry?

While it’s understandable to want to check in, it’s best to avoid directly asking guests about their gift choices. Instead, consider sending a friendly reminder about your registry closer to the wedding date, emphasizing your excitement for their presence rather than the gifts.

What should I do if someone asks about our wedding registry directly?

If someone inquires about your registry, feel free to share the details! You can mention a few items you’re excited about and express how their presence at the wedding is what truly matters to you. This keeps the focus on the celebration rather than the gifts.
