USGreat but a little confusing for people We thought the experience went very well. The only negative thing that we could say is that it was confusing for a lot of people on how it works. They're not used to online cash registries, especially the older generation, and we feel that had an effect on how many people gave gifts. If there was a short video (15-30 second animation) explaining how it worked that would have helped a ton I feel

USGreat 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.

USWhat 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!

AUSuper 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.

USWorked 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.
