When I married over five years ago, I had heard of a wedding gift registry, but I didn’t know what it was for. When my maid of honor suggested that I do make one, I had to admit that I clueless. She told me that I go to a store of my pick, and ask if they have a gift registry. If they do, they will give me all the information that I need. Even though I felt awkward about it, I did it anyway.

I’m not sure why. but the thought of a wedding gift registry leaves me cold. Though many of the people that I know have used one, and people that want to buy you a gift welcome them- I felt it was something that I didn’t need. My hubby and I had been a couple for quite awhile before we wed, and it wasn’t like we needed very much for our home. It also felt to me like I was telling people what to buy me. I know this is the whole idea behind a wedding gift registry, but it left me feeling very uncomfortable. In the end, I don’t think I told many people that it was even there.
