Website, Registry Page, and Invite?

We just mailed out our wedding invitations this past week (big yeah!) and like most modern couples, we have a wedding website with a ton of relevant information for the guests (hotels, things to do, times, food choices/allergy info, etc.). We chose to include the wedding website on the direction card that was then inserted in the wedding invitation. We are aware that most of the older guests will not use the website, but for our friends, it will be an invaluable tool! So my question then becomes: If anyone did this, did you delete the registry page from your website? We did, but I just wondered if anyone else felt that it would be a faux pas to have that on there, as it would kind of be like including the registry information in the invite. Not a big deal, I'm just wondering about other people's opinions. Our website is through the Knot, btw, and the Registry page is on their template, so that's what got me started thinking about this. :)

Re: Website, Registry Page, and Invite?

  • We had the registry tab on our wedding website.  In my opinion, it's okay to have it there, just not in the actual invitations.

  • I included a link to the website and did not delete the registry page. I've already had 20 people ask me where we're registered which leads me to believe that not many people check the website.
  • I kept it on my website. Like Dani said, not in the invite though.

  • I'm pretty sure having your registry on your website is ok. 
  • Since my fiance and I are an old-fashioned couple, we will be sending registry information via carrier pigeon.

  • Ours is on there. We did online RSVP's and I posted asking if it was ok to have it on there and the response was yes, even though they'll be going to the website to RSVP it's still ok to have the registry links there too.
  • Forgot... My fiance's parents have received invites to two wedding since we sent ours out. Both invites included where they were registered on the main paper. I live in Oregon, so maybe it's a regional thing what's ok and what's not?
  • We didn't put the registry info on the website. I know it's ok, but I just wasn't comfortable putting it out there like that.
  • We included our wedding website on an insert in our invitations. We kept the registry page on the website but I don't think many people noticed it because a few people who online rsvped asked us where we were registered. Including those registry cards in the actual invite is common/expected in my area, so people probably thought that not including it was a hint to give us cash. Not that I'm complaining.. ;)
