Before the wedding you go to the store and pick out things that u wud like to have as gifts. When u sent the invitations, u send a card alg with it say the bride and groom are registered at this place. So guests can go to the store and ask them so see the bride and groom's registry by name. Then the store prints the list of things the bride and groom requested, the list also denotes if the item has been purchased. In spite of all this I still ended up with 3 rice cookers frm the same store. Here there is a concept of registering for gifts.
