Imagine this-- a few months before your wedding, all of your family and friends pay a visit to your home, see what you have and what you need, and choose the perfect gift based on their observations. It's far from practical but it would definitely be convenient, right? After dealing with her own registry frustrations, Lizzie Showman was inspired to create a program that would make that unrealistic scenario a reality. The result? A website that will forever change the world of wedding registries.
Blueprint Registry is the first online registry service that allows engaged couples to create a customized wedding wish-list based on the layout of their home. After setting up a free account, members are able to build a wish list based on the number of rooms in their house, their personal style, and the products that they already own. They can then make selections from a list of highly-rated products from various retailers and are presented with a visual representation of how those gifts will fit into their space.
Along with making registries less overwhelming for couples, Blueprint also simplifies the shopping process for guests. The beautiful website offers a group-gifting feature for family and friends that want to join together and purchase higher-priced items and makes each gift more personal by allowing couples to label exactly who wants each product. They've even taken the program a step further by providing a purchase summary to couples 2-weeks after their wedding which includes who bought each gift, contact information (perfect for thank-you cards!), and a return sheet organized by vendor.
In our opinion, Blueprint Registry has truly taken registries into the 21st century and their digital platform will forever change the way we shop for wedding gifts. Head over to their website, set up a free account, and then relax as Blueprint does all of the hard work for you!
