Creating an Amazon Wedding Registry
To get started, you will need to enter your name and your partner's name. Then, go to the Wedding Registry homepage and click "Create a Wedding Registry". Sign in to your Amazon account or create one, and follow the on-screen instructions.
You can decide whether you want your registry to be public (searchable on Amazon), shareable (only shared via a link), or private (only visible to yourself). Amazon also offers a group-gifting option where guests can contribute to pricier items. You can also shop anywhere on the internet and add those products to your registry using the Amazon Assistant browser extension.
Amazon offers a 20% completion discount for registrants who have received $500 or more in qualifying purchases from their registry. You can also create a Gift Card Fund by visiting the "Your Registries and Gift Lists" page, choosing your Wedding Registry, and selecting "Gift Card Funds".

Privacy settings
When creating an Amazon wedding registry, you can choose from three privacy settings: "Private," "Shareable," or "Public". You can update your registry's privacy settings at any time.
If you select "Public", anyone can easily search for and find your registry on Amazon. You can make your registry public by clicking "Find a Registry" in the navigation bar at the top right corner of the page. From there, you can use advanced search to find a registry using the name, city or state, and event date.
If you select "Shareable", you can choose when and how to share your registry with friends and family. You can copy the link or customize it, for example, with your and your partner's names. You can also share the link on social media or directly via email or messaging apps.
If you select "Private", only those with the link will be able to access your registry.
Additionally, to protect your privacy, people viewing your registry will only see your name, city, and state. If you purchase from a wedding registry, Amazon may provide your full name and address to the list owner on delivery.

Group gifting
To enable Group Gifting, go to your Wedding Registry and select Settings. Check the 'Enable Group Gifting' box and enter the desired dollar value for items (the default is $300). You can turn Group Gifting on or off for any item and change the default amount accordingly.
You can view Group Gift contributions by selecting the items in your Wedding Registry or by opening your Thank You List. You will see the names and addresses of those who have contributed if your guests have opted to share their information. Each item enabled for Group Gifting will show a dollar amount for contributions received so far, and it will be marked as fully funded when enough contributions have been received to purchase the item.
If the price of an item is less than the amount contributed, the remainder will be applied to the primary registry owner's Amazon.com balance. If the price is more than the contributed amount, the owner must pay the difference. A 10% charge is applied to cover sales taxes, and if the calculated sales tax is less than this, the difference is applied to the owner's gift card balance.
Note that items with Group Gifting contributions will not ship until purchased by the registry owner.
