500 Comments Second Anniversary 25 Love Its Name Dropper
in Wedding Etiquette Forum
Morning ladies.  I saw this discussed briefly but never addressed specifically.  Is it in poor taste to put the wedding website address on the STDs, and in an insert within the invitation, if the wedding website lists registry information?  It seems like everyone does it, but I'm nervous that this is basically an indirect way to give registry information in the invite/STD.  I'm considering just not having the registry information on the website.  Thoughts?

    What you've decribed is totally okay.  As long as the website doesn't have JUST your registry info (i.e. also includes schedule, hotel, etc.) you're good.

    I don't think there's anything wrong with that.  We just sent out our STDs, and listed the website in small letters at the bottom.  We don't even have registry information on the website, yet, but we are planning to add it later.  I think of the website as more of a chance for people from FI's side to learn more about me and people from my side to learn more about FI.

    That's what we're doing too!  I agree with Kate, as long as your website includes other information, it's very appropriate to direct guests towards it!

    I was wondering if this is ok too.  We have a lot of information about the hotel, shuttle, directions to the venue, and what there is to do in area with one small page with links to our registries.  I honestly just want to put the website on their so guests can get information about the hotels and shuttles more than anything.  Would this be ok on a directions/accomdations card with the invite?

    We only put the website info on the STDs, not in the invitations, but  I look at the websites as a place for "additional info guests might be seeking," so I don't see anything wrong with it.

    I personally think it's ok, because it saves a LOT of printing, ex: directions to church from different freeways, directions to reception from church. A quick way to RSVP if you don't trust snail mail etc. I designed a wedding invitation for a friend and it had 4 cards in there!! I feel she could have saved a lot of the printing, envelope cost not to mention it would have made my job easier and I could have used more readable sized fonts, if she just put the website link at the bottom of the main invite.

    That sounds like a good idea! "We added to our STDs; and it will be on the accommodations inset of our invitation packet...."
