Creating A Wedding Registry On Amazon: A Step-By-Step Guide

Creating a wedding registry on Amazon is a convenient way to keep track of the items you want, making it easier for your friends and family to find the perfect gift for you and your partner. To create an Amazon wedding registry, you can go to the Amazon Wedding Registry portal, fill in your details, and select Create My Registry. You can also create a registry through The Knot, which will automatically sync your Amazon registry to your account. Once your registry is created, you can add items by visiting the Amazon Wedding Registry page or through the Wedding Registry option on the Account and Lists drop-down menu. You can also add items directly from any product page on Amazon.

Creating an Amazon Wedding Registry profile

• Go to the Amazon Wedding Registry portal: On your desktop, log in to your Amazon account and hover over "Account & Lists" in the top right corner. Click on "Find a List or Registry" and you will be directed to the Registry and Gifting page. From there, click on the "Create a registry or gift list" button and select "I'm getting married" to begin.
• Enter your details: Input your name and your partner's name, and click "Continue."
• Select your wedding date: Click on the calendar icon to choose your wedding date. Don't worry if you don't have an exact date yet; you can always update it later in the Settings.
• Enter the size of your wedding: Include the number of guests you're inviting. This information will help Amazon's Gift Advisor feature make recommendations on the appropriate number of gifts. You can adjust the guest count later if needed.
• Shipping address: Select the address where you would like to receive your gifts. Here, you can also choose to allow guests to send you additional gifts that are not on your registry.
• Privacy settings: Decide on the privacy settings for your registry. You can make it public (searchable on Amazon), shareable (only shared via a link), or private (only visible to you). You also have the option to make it searchable on TheKnot.com. You can update these settings at any time in the Settings.
• Create your registry: After reviewing your selections, click "Create" to finalize your registry.

Once you've created your Amazon Wedding Registry profile, you can start adding items to your registry. Whenever you're on an Amazon product page, simply look for the "Add to Wedding Registry" button to include it in your list. You can also use the Gift Advisor feature to get recommendations based on your preferences and price levels.

Amazon's Wedding Registry offers several benefits, including group gifting, a 20% completion discount, fast and free shipping for Prime members, easy returns, and a gift tracker to help you keep track of who sent which gift.

Adding items to your registry

Adding items to your Amazon wedding registry is simple.

Any time you're on an Amazon product page on your browser or the app, you should see the option to add the item to your wedding registry. On the app, you can also add items from a product page; just find the product you'd like, scroll down, then tap "Add to Registry & Gifting" and select your registry.

You can also add items from your registry page directly. When logged in to your registry, click on "Add items" from the menu near the top of the page. Then, you should see a list of products, broken down by categories like "Popular," "Kitchen," and "Home."

Once you've added a product to your registry, you can make changes to the item whenever you like. Just find the item you want to amend and click "Edit item" to change the requested amount, mark it as "most wanted," add comments for your guests, or remove the product.

You can add any product on Amazon to your registry. If you're looking to narrow down the options, you can use the Gift Advisor feature and get recommendations based on your preferences and price levels. Amazon also has curated collections and a list of popular gifts to help you get inspiration.

Your registry tracks how many gifts were purchased by price range, and you're just a click away from adding more into each section.

Editing items in your registry

Editing items in your Amazon Wedding Registry is simple and can be done in one place.

To manage the items in your Wedding Registry:

• Go to your Wedding Registry.
• Locate the item you want to change and select 'Edit Item'.
• Edit the item settings as required. You can change the requested amount, mark the item as 'most wanted', add comments for guests, or remove the item from the list.
• Select 'Save Changes'.

You can also edit your profile information at any time by selecting 'Settings' from the menu at the top of your registry.

Sharing your wedding registry

Once you've created your Amazon wedding registry, you can choose your desired privacy setting. You can change this at any time in the settings on your registry page. To do so, select Settings in the menu at the top of the page, then scroll down to the privacy options to choose your preference before selecting 'Save Changes'.

You can also change your privacy setting by selecting 'Your registry' from the menu at the top of your wedding registry page. In the top left, under your and your partner's names and a countdown to your wedding date, it will say 'Your registry is', followed by the privacy setting you've chosen ('Private', 'Shareable', or 'Public').

Whenever you're ready to share your wedding registry, you'll see a ''Share' button next to an icon of an arrow in the top right of your screen. You can copy the link from there or even change the link if you'd like to customise it, for example, with your and your partner's names. There's also the option to share the link on social media.

If your registry is set to public, your guests can simply search for it on Amazon. Or, if you prefer, you can share a link with only those you choose, or keep your registry private so that it stays between you and your co-registrant until you're ready to share it.

Setting up partner editing permissions

On your desktop:

• Go to your Wedding Registry.
• Go to the Menu and select Settings.
• Enter your partner's email address and select Save Changes. Ensure that the email address entered is the same one linked to your partner's Amazon.com account.
• Amazon will then send an email to your partner with instructions on how to proceed.

On the Amazon app:

• Tap the icon with three horizontal lines in the bottom-right corner.
• Select "Registry & Gift List" at the top of the screen to view your existing registries and gift lists.
• Follow the same steps as above to set up partner editing permissions.

Please note that only the primary registry owner may redeem the Completion Discount, claim the Welcome Box, and redeem electronic gift cards, group gift contributions, and Diaper Fund contributions. If your partner has a Prime account and you do not, it is recommended to set your partner as the primary owner of the registry to maximize your registry benefits.
