Great way to get the things you need Simple registry made it easy for our guests to get us useful and beautiful gifts. We had a lot of guests traveling a great distance to make it to our wedding and they really appreciated not having to lug around a present.

Good simple site It was easy to set up, easy to retrieve the payments. The browser link was also simple to work with I dont know how hard was it for our guests to set up the payments so can't comment on that. I guess one addition that you can incorporate is to actually buy the stuff linked with money allocated, though I guess that would require additional prod dev on your side. Its just a thought.

unnecessary We started our registry with this site and found out it was not helpful in the slightest. If someone wanted to purchase a gift for us off of the registry, we would only get the cash for that item and we would have to go buy the gift. Any gift of money given to use, the website gets a cut. Doesn't make sense to have a middle man for no reason. Also, we had a guest sign up for a cash gift, but someone got confused that they had to actually personally give us the case....just a confusing process all around. Do not recommend.

Great service Great service, easy to use. My only complaint would be that we did not receive notifications from everyone who purchased a gift. We had no idea how many people had actually utilized the service until we logged in after the wedding.

Super handy registry experience SimpleRegistry gives you all the facts straight up...except a few really important ones: 1. Probably sign up with the same email address as your PayPal account 2. Everything works in US$. If you are in the rest of the non-US$ using world (the other 96.6% of the world), you'll be wasting some money on the exchange rate. Overall, however, positive experience and made it easy for some of our overseas guests and those who couldn't make the wedding to give us a gift. I wouldn't be using it again, unfortunately. Will try to find an Australian or more flexible platform.
