Proper STD Etiquette/gift registry

 My fi and I our ready to send out our save the dates we already registered and are not sure if we should include the inserts given to us from our registry. Or should we send them with our invitations aren’t sure what the proper etiquette is.Or should they not be included at all. What did some of you do?

    People's opinions differ on this.  I have seen on The Knot that it is a major no no to send those with the invitations.  They will tell you that people will ask where you're registered and that's how you go about it.  You can include them in the bridal shower invites.  I have never heard of them being sent with STDs. I've gotten wedding invites with the registry info included and I didn't mind.

    Don't do it!  Most people will find out where you are registered, and it's a little early to include it in you STD's.  And DON'T put it in your invites either.

    I think if you send them with the STDs, people will keep the STD but end up tossing the registry info.  We included a little card in our invites that said "for more information, see ..website.."  The website then had links to our registries.The wedding I just went to had a large front-and-back insert that had a lot of the website information on it - hotels in the area, travel info, where they were registered, directions, etc.  I didn't think it was too tacky, but I wouldn't include an insert that only mentions your registry.

    Don't send out registry information with any invitation.  Unless it's a Bridal Shower invite in which case the Bride is NOT sending out the invite.  It implies that a gift is more important than the company of your loved one.  As another option you can insert information on a wedding website that can tell guests where a couple is registered.
