Registry Etiquette Never mention gifts or a registry in your invitations. Create a wedding website that has your registry information and then you can either email or verbally let guests know. If you don't want any gifts, it is still inappropriate to mention it. If you are set on no gifts, create a registry that donates to charity. Give you parents all your registry information and they can let guests know if they ask. Your Maid-of-Honor will generally tell shower guests where you are registered. Guests know to ask your family or friends where you are registered. Don't forget your Thank-you notes.
