GBSatisfied customer SimpleRegistry worked well for us. We found it easy to use and manage as well as fun for us and our loved ones. If the need were to arise for someone I would recommend this site. My one concern would be there are too many mailed items. Perhaps I could have changed that option and chose to not receive anything in the mail but in my opinion that is what the default option should be. Instead we received a lot of unnecessary physical mail as I was also emailed with notifications as appropriate. This is the only thing that I can think of to critique. Thanks.

GBWorked well for younger people Simple Registry was an easy way for us to avoid getting a ton of gifts we don't need (although we still got a few) and helping us pay for our honeymoon. All of our younger guests and people who regularly use technology had no problem with it, but older folks who don't have much experience in technology were just really baffled by the idea and had trouble using the site. I don't doubt this has more to do with their skills than the site, but does maybe show that not everyone is quite ready to go online with wedding registries. I'd recommend this to a friend without a doubt, but with the caveat that they'll need to walk older/non technically skilled people though it step by step.

GBEasy to use! Very quick and easy to set up registry items in a matter of minutes. You can even use images from a library they have available, which was handy for us because all of our items were basically placeholders for an upcoming trip (like breakfast in bed, romantic dinners excursion activities, etc.) If you've got specific items from retailers you can add those very easily.

GBWhat you see is what you get Very user friendly and frees you from all the registry memberships and unnecessary sales pitches. We were looking to have a modest registry and linking the items we picked from various stores was easy. The ability to personalize why you wanted an item as a wedding gift helped guests connect with the couple and breaking down the items into small gifts had most of our items bought by the honeymoon! (only two left unbought out of about 13) Highly recommended!

GBIdeal for pricey items We did a department store registry with some needed items for those who would like to purchase a gift that way. But we also wanted some way for guests, if they'd like, to contribute to a very expensive heirloom quality grain mill for the kitchen. SimpleRegistry was the ideal solution and everything went smoothly. We purchased our mill thanks to everyone's generosity! I wouldn't use this registry for many smaller items since you need to keep track of spending the money according to its designation. However, for one or two pricey items, I would recommend it!
