Gift Registry Questions. Help!!

Sara, on April 23, 2021 at 9:13 AM Posted in Registry 0 5

My fiance' and I have our registry through Zola, with items directly added from their site and also our Amazon and BB&B registries added. We have had 2 items purchased and one shipped to our home from BB&B. The other was purchased through Zola and stated who purchased and gave the option of shipping right now or at a later time.


What is the best way to do this? I'm not familiar with etiquette and don't want to seem too eager to get the gifts to us so early before the wedding, but also concerned that the item would become back-ordered or sold out? We obviously will send the thank you card ASAP, but didn't know how to handle the actual item at the moment.

    It's whatever you prefer. I don't think the guest actually knows if you hold it or not.

    I would just choose to have it sent right away and then send a thank you card as soon as you receive it! Our registry is through Zola as well, and I've noticed some items will go 'out of stock' and you have no way of knowing when they'll be back. Have it sent now, that way you don't run the risk of it being out of stock if you choose to wait!

    I would have it sent right away and send a thank you. I think it'd be odd to send a thank you before you actually have the physical gift and I don't think there's a huge benefit to waiting!
