Wedding shower invitations: is it ok to say where bride is registered?
November 25, 2009
I know that it is considered tacky to include gift registry information in wedding invitations, but what about wedding shower invitations? As the idea of a shower is to "shower" the bride with gifts, it seems that registry information would be helpful to include.
It is acceptable to include registry information in a shower invitation.

You can include it on a seperate card, that’s fine.

of course…it’s generally expected that the places the bride & groom are registered will be included in wedding shower as well as wedding invitations.

Since the bride doesn’t throw the shower for herself, it is perfectly acceptable to include the registry information in the shower invitations. This is where the information is SUPPOSED to go.

Wedding SHOWER invites are the perfect place to put your registry information as long as you’re not giving yourself a shower. If your bridesmaids or someone is throwing you a shower, then they definitely can put your registry info in there.

Yes… the registry info is perfectly acceptable on a shower invite. That is the only invitation it belongs on.

This is actually where you are supposed to include any registry info because as you said you are comming to "Shower" the bride with gifts.

It’s okay, but I don’t understand why people don’t use their wedding websites and word of mouth.

it’s fine to do that for the shower invitation, since it isn’t coming from the bride herself.
