Host: Am I obligated to select a gift from the Bridal couple s Wedding registry?

Nancy Mitchell: A registry can be very, very helpful to you when you do need to select to a gift because you are certain of getting something that couple wants in needs. You also know how many products they already have, what colors they need, the size of different linens if that s the case. So, really it can t help you. However, if you are extremely close to the couple and you know something that would be special to them that would make them think of you when they saw if it's not on the registry it's perfectly alright to give that gift.

Be sincere, give what feels right and don t limit yourself just to get on the registry.
