Registry on wedding website?

I'm just curious of what you all think. I know it's becoming very popular for couples to put where they are registered and likns to the stores on their websites. So what's your opinion?

I've almost never seen wedding websites without the registries. In my circle at least, people predominately make the wedding websites so that guests don't need to call to find out where the registries are and what hotel has room blocks. I didn't want my wedding website to look gift grabby so I put up albums of our engagement pictures and pictures of the wedding party, etc., but honestly the only useful info for the guests is the registry, hotel blocks and directions.

However, I wouldn't put the link to your website on your invitations- only on the save the dates.

I think as long as it's not the only thing on the website, and it's discreet, it's fine.  The website is a compilation of useful information, and I think having a link to registries is helpful for many people.  My husband's family told me they were grateful it was there because we didn't reigster at Macy's, and when they went to Macy's and couldn't find us there they 'didn't know what to do'.

Personally, I dislike it.  I know it is accepted and common, but I wasn't comfortable doing that.  

We still got tons of registry gifts, so obviously people figured it out, and very few asked me.

Generally, people are going to ask where you registered.

As a guest, I appreciate knowing where the couple registered and honestly don't care where or how I found out, but would prefer to be given the information instead of having to call someone to ask.
