My FMIL wants to throw us an engagement party. Neither my fiance and I want one since the people that are important to us have already done something special with us. She basically wants to show us off to her friends, which I guess I understand. Long story short, she keeps telling us to register for engagement gifts. I've never ever heard of this before and I thought you only registered for shower gifts. Can anyone give me some insight? Also, when should I register in general? We aren't getting married until March 2013.
