When sending invitations, is it alright to include a little slip of paper saying where you are registered at...or how do you handle that?
It isn't proper etiquette to include gift registry information or enclosures with the wedding invitations, as it implies a gift is expected. Family members, attendants or close friends can spread the word to other guests in person, over the phone, or by email, if asked. Or, if you are asked where you are registered, you can certainly tell them then. You can, however include registry cards in shower invitations, since giving gifts is the reason for a shower. Many stores provide you with registry enclosure cards for showers.

At first, I was bugging out a lil bit over the thought of how to share my registry info too. I don't know why proper "etiquette" considers including registry info in the print invite to be so tabu...but my worst nightmare with this wedding is doing anything that would be considered tacky, esp by my fiancee's family.
Luckily, we decided to create an online registry with MyRegistry.com. Not only did we create a beautiful registry that contains items from all of our favorite stores, but we were also able to avoid the whole "registry inclusion dilemma" by creating free eCards to send out and share our registry info.
The eCards were the way to go. It made it very easy for everyone to go right to MyRegistry.com and see our wish list.
