Browsing and purchasing from a registry

To browse and purchase from a wedding registry on Amazon, you must first find the registry. To do this, the registry must be public, and you can locate it by clicking 'Find a Registry' in the navigation bar at the top right corner of the page. You can then use the advanced search to find the registry using the name, city or state, and event date.

Once you have found the wedding registry, you can browse the item details of anything on the list. You can sort registry items by priority, price, or purchased status by choosing the desired option from the 'Sort By' drop-down menu and selecting 'Go'.

When you have found an item you wish to purchase, select it, and then choose 'Add to Cart' or 'See Options/More Information'. If you want to go back and select another item from the registry, use the back button on your browser. When you have finished shopping, select 'Proceed to Checkout' and follow the on-screen instructions to complete your order.

If you purchase from a wedding registry, Amazon may provide your full name and address to the list owner on delivery. To protect the privacy of the registry owner, only their name, city, and state will appear on the default address.

Creating and editing a registry

Creating and editing an Amazon Wedding Registry is a straightforward process. To begin, navigate to the Wedding Registry homepage and click the "Create your registry" button. You will then be prompted to sign in to your Amazon account or create a new one if you don't already have one. After that, simply follow the on-screen instructions to set up your registry.

Once your registry is created, you can start adding items to it. Amazon boasts "Earth's biggest selection", allowing you to register for any product available in its stores. This includes popular brands such as Nespresso, iRobot, Riedel, Safavieh, Le Creuset, Instant Pot, and Pyrex, among others. You can also add notes and highlight your most wanted gifts for your guests.

If you need to make changes to your registry after it's been created, you can edit items, manage contributions, set up partner editing permissions, and delete items. You can also track who bought what gift and when, making it easy to send thank-you notes. Additionally, you can share your registry with friends and family so they know exactly what gifts to get.

Amazon also offers various perks for your wedding registry, including a 20% completion discount on registry items shipped and sold by Amazon.com, fast and free shipping for guests, and easy returns within 180 days. You can also allow group gifting so that guests can contribute funds towards pricier items.

Group gifting and contributions

Group gifting is an option for guests who want to contribute funds towards pricier items on your Amazon Wedding Registry. Each item enabled for group gifting has a dollar amount for contributions received so far and is marked as "fully funded" when you've received enough contributions to purchase the item. You can view group gift contributions by selecting the items in your Wedding Registry or by opening your Thank You List. You'll see the names and addresses of people who have contributed or bought items from your registry, if your guests have opted into sharing their information.

Note that only the primary registry owner can redeem contributions. To redeem group gift contributions directly from the item in your registry, select "Apply to your balance", then select "Add to Cart" and proceed to checkout. Prices are subject to change and are only confirmed when the order is placed. If the price of an item is less than the amount contributed for the item, the remainder is applied to the primary registry owner's Amazon.com balance. If the price of an item, including taxes, shipping costs, and any applicable fees, is more than the amount contributed for the item, the registry owner must pay the difference.

There is a 10% charge applied to group gifts to cover any sales taxes. If the sales tax calculated and due on an item is less than the 10% charge, the difference is applied to the primary registry owner's Amazon.com Electronic Gift Card balance. If it's more, the registry owner must pay the difference.

Returning gifts

• Go to your Wedding Registry.
• Select the "Thank You List".
• Find the item you wish to return and select "Return or replace gift".
• Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the return process.

Alternatively, you can use the order number to arrange a return through the Returns Center. It's important to note that gifts purchased from your Wedding Registry are eligible for free returns within 180 days of receiving the shipment. This policy does not apply to items you purchase for yourself from your registry.

Amazon also offers a generous return policy, providing free return shipping and easy-to-use print-at-home return labels. This makes the process hassle-free, especially if you need to return multiple items.

In addition, Amazon will not notify the seller or gifter of the return, and you will receive credit in the form of a gift card. It is important to prioritize returning items sold by Amazon to ensure this benefit.
