I was looking at the website for a wedding we've been invited to and the couple is registered at six different places. Is this normal?
Re: Six registries?!
did you look at the registries? are all 6 of them really full? sometimes people will ask for the same gift on a couple different registries, especially department stores that aren't available all across the country. my DH really wanted pilsner glasses and the only ones he liked were at Crate & Barrel, so we registered there, but only for those 4 glasses.
so - do i think 6 is too many? no. not by itself. if all 6 are complete registries where they're asking for 10 million towels in all different colors, etc, then maybe it's a bit much. it just depends.
I think it depends on how big the wedding is. If it's over 300 then I'd say that's fine.
For a normal size wedding of 100-150 then that's a lot. I think most do 2-3. I had 120 and only did 2.
Yeah, seems like a lot unless they are having a huge wedding. We're registered at 2 places, though we're going to add Home Depot or some place so FI can put some tools on and feel included. But I actually feel like 3 is pushing it. I considered deleting my Macy's registry, once I realized that BB&B carries even more pieces of my china, but I loved the Martha Stewart kitchen wares...I digress.
It seems like too much to me, but to each their own. I can understand finding something you love at one store and being compelled to add a registry if they're the only ones who have it, but I also figure we can buy those things for ourselves.
