Save-the-Date Cards?

I've done some research and have noticed that it's not appropriate to put our registry information on anything i.e. save-the-dates and/or invitations. But that we can inform our guests via our wedding website. Is it appropriate to put our wedding website address on the save-the-dates? has anyone else done this or just gone ahead and included the registry information?

Re: Save-the-Date Cards?

  • I have never seen any one put their registry info on anything wedding related. I could be wrong, but that is a little forward no? Is letting people know where to buy you things really at the forefront of your mind right now?I always found out where the bride and groom were registered from the wedding party or from them when I asked them.I plan on putting my wedding website on my save the dates because I want people to have access to directions and accommodations.
  • In my cousins invite she put a paper with addresses and put her website on there and said something about viewing more info on directions or something.

  • Putting your registry info on anything you're mailing to your guests is way wrong. Putting your registry information on your website is okay. Putting your website on your invitations/save the dates is okay.

  •  Is letting people know where to buy you things really at the forefront of your mind right now?This is exactly what I was thinking.
  • It's fine to put your registry info on your website, so long as it is discrete and not on the front page. You can also put up directions, hotel info, etc. Then you can put on the STD "for more info, please visit our website at..."
  • I always found out where the bride and groom were registered from the wedding party or from them when I asked them.THIS. Traditionally, people find out by asking the wedding party, family, or bride and groom. They did it long before the internet and wedding websites existed. So let your families and WP know where you are registered and leave it at that, or put it on your website subtly. NOT on the front page, and just something like "John and Anne are registered at Macy's and Bed Bath and Beyond."If people want to find out about your registry, they will. If they don't, what's the big deal? So they'll give you a check or another present or... nothing. No big deal.

  • I'm making little cards and putting them in the invitations with our website information which has our registry. All of my guest (or most) are out of town, so I want them to have the info on paper on how to get more info about our wedding.
  • I put out website on the STDs, and it will be referenced in the invitations (on the accommodations card, I think).  Our website does NOT have registry information on it.

    Dresses may be easier to take in than let out, but guest lists are not. -- kate51485
  • Our STD cards directed people to our website for more info but the registry stuff isn't on there (nor will it be).  It just has info on where the mass and reception are, flying to the wedding, our hotel block, stuff to do/places to eat in the area, and a spot to request reception songs.  When it gets closer I'm adding driving directions.
