Just what we were looking for! Simply Registry is perfect for couples who want to ask for large gifts or experiences instead of smaller household items. For example, we asked for a canoe and split it into several shares so different people could contribute to one larger gift. We were also able to earmark cash for experiences, such as a fancy dinner on our honeymoon. Everything was secure and our gift money was easy to transfer into our account.

Perfect for our wedding registry We liked how SimpleRegistry dealt only with money and we could go out and buy the items ourselves, especially because we weren't sure where we were living and now we're living in a small space that may not be able to fit everything at once. Just be aware of the small fees they charge for each contribution.

wedding registry great option for couples getting married :)

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.

Great service but could have taken out a lower service fee We used Simple Registry for our wedding, and it was a GREAT way for people to give us cash gifts - which we needed as we both had plenty of house items but were about to purchase a home. I loved the way they took down addresses and created a thank-you list for us. However, I thought the 3% service charge was a little high. They also sent letters to us whenever someone sent us a gift, which was unnecessary. Would have rather had a lower service charge than that extra detail.
