What are you thoughts on registering for a second wedding?
My Southern Mama thinks it's a big no no but I have been asked by several friends where we are registered. We are only inviting about 50 people. What are your thoughts?

Re: What are you thoughts on registering for a second wedding?
(1) Is this both peoples second wedding?
(2) I think people will bring a gift anyway. A good friend of mine got married to someone who had previously been married( me and the bridge have since become very close) I immediately bought them some Champagne Flutes from the Waterford Outlet ( only $20.00!!)
(3) Are you getting married again? No judgement or flames( because I have always liked you) just curious.
~~~MARRIED BIO~~~
Personally, as a guest, I would bring a gift to a second wedding. So I would want the bride and groom to register for stuff so I would have an idea.
edited. Let me wake up and type properly .
Generally I don't think it's tacky. I would give a bit of a side-eye if your first marriage with within the last 3 years and you were registering for multiple $100+ items though. (I have no idea when your first wedding was)
I have confusing mixed feelings about this. If it?s a second wedding for both I think it?s a bit tacky. If it?s either person?s first, I don't have issues. No matter what I would bring a gift and be annoyed if they didn't have a registry..... so darned if you do darned if you don?t?
I feel this way too. Also if you are getting married CONGRATS!
My opinion is that people are still going to bring gifts so I'd rather register than get a bunch of stuff you don't want/need. I would limit the registry to fairly inexpensive items though and leave the big ticket things like china, crystal, etc off.
And as others said. . . if you are getting married again CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am very happy for you!
i agree with all of this
and ditto on the congrats!

I think you should register, because people are going to want to bring gifts, but I would follow a few guidelines:
1. Keep the registry modest, like towels, dishes, sheets, etc. I would not register for $300+ place settings.
2. I'm sure you wouldn't do this, but no sending registry information with invites. I wouldn't tell anyone you're registered unless they ask.
3. Again, I am not referring to you, but don't expect a shower with gifts. If your friends want to throw you a shower, I would graciously accept, because they love you and want to celebrate with you. But if you don't get one, I wouldn't be disappointed.
I need a lot of household items since I only have the bare essentials right now, so I would register if I were in your shoes, but it would only be for those household things that I need.
and CONGRATS!
If someone has gotten divorced, they may have very few household items and are really starting as much from scratch as a first time couple.
I agree with some others. I think as long as you don't register for anything extravagant I think it's okay.
