FOUR ADVANTAGES TO USING ONLINE BRIDAL REGISTRIES

Bridal registries are often times an unpopular choice, traditionally by older wedding guests. However, this might be largely due to the fact that in-store registration is problematic. Modern technology and online shopping, however, has reduced much of the trouble commonly associated with bridal registries. Consider four advantages to using online bridal registries.

1. Convenient Tracking.
One common complaint from both wedding guests and registered couples is that it's a lot of trouble buying the right gift. Duplicate purchases are sometimes a problem as store records and lists are not always updated accurately. Online bridal registries take care of this problem and gift wish lists are updated almost immediately, as soon as a purchase is made. Tracking is done online and all a person has to do is login to check the updated list.





2. Convenient Shipping.
In the old days, wedding guests had to buy the gifts from the store, transport them back to the house and then again to the wedding reception, where the gifts would then become the trouble of the bride and groom to get home somehow. (Not a problem when dealing with silverware, but a major problem if the item is a couch!) Online shopping allows delivery from the cyber-store directly to the future groom and bride's residence. Sure it's more complicated than that, but you never know about it.

3. Convenient Information.
Unlike waiting in a store for registration help, an online store gives you just the facts in a personal, eye pleasing product review. You can login to a company website and get pictures of the merchandise, details and the exact price. This is all very difficult to do in-store, between waiving down employees and getting a clear price quote from the gift list.





4. Firm Price
Prices are high to start with in retail stores. Furthermore, problems in communication between management, employees and the customer, can result in different price quotes than were originally agreed upon. Shopping online eliminates this problem and the one price you see in large text is the one price you pay.

Online shopping protects the newly wed couple from bad gifts and prevents the wedding guest from paying too much. Last but not least, online shopping is also a great way to avoid the traffic!
