How Do I Set up a Wedding Registry?

[JackieB999]

Hi All... my website has been up for a few weeks and I want to set up a wedding registry. How do I do that? I can't seem to find any info on it. I went to set up a new show on my website and "wedding registry" is not an option. Is it really a catalog show? What am I missing? Thanks.

Have you submitted your first $1250 to "qualify"? If not, that's why you can't see the registry. If you have and it's just been a day or two it's just not updated yet - if longer then call HO and have them check on it.

Until you are qualified with $1250 in commissionable sales you will not have access to online orders (unless they're ON a show*) or the Weddng Registry.


*get around that by putting a catalog show on the PC website in your name and tell people that if they want to order they can just put your name in the host fields.


ETA: I would urge the bride/bridesmaid to do a PC wedding shower first and then put the remaining wish list on a registry. My brides make out way better doing it that way. I also urge them to make the PC shower the first if they are having more than one.

Hi Beth... I have met my $1250 and I've already received 2 online orders. Where should the registry be located? I may have to call the HO.

Good idea on the shower.... but what if they want just the traditional shower? I told her that her shower host could include in on the invatations. Not good?

It's fine but I always suggest PC shower. People buy the gift at the party and also for themselves (and they get the free item for $60). I also encourage outside orders from people not invited to the shower (present it as "we're putting together a Pampered Chef order do you want to see a book"). The bride gets the gifts (value as people would have spent anywhere except they didn't have to go shop, wrap, etc) and all the free product/1/2 price, etc. My brides always more than double or triple what they would have gotten at a traditional shower and they get high quality items for their kitchens. Then anything else they want goes on the registry and they can mention that for future showers/wedding gift ideas.

Hi Beth... my recruiter helped me find it. The bride has to do it from my homepage on my website... it's in the selections on the top right. I will talk to the bride over the weekend and find out about the shower too! Thanks again.
