Ankle~ma, Calli. Sucks that it happened, awesome for having net of support in 10 seconds or so.

Pix, I wish I could help, but I've never heard of a single wedding in Israel which involved registry, let alone went to one. These wedding things are really different between countries. So I dare not guess the right etiquette.

I think we've figured it out. I'm going with the initial instinct of leaving registry info on the website and letting people ask.

ETA:

Would a few of you do a quick proof of the site to see if anything jumps out as confusing? If you see a typo, I'd appreciate a heads up on that too: [link redacted].

Thanks!

(Link went POOF! Thanks, everyone.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Traditionally, the polite thing for guests to do is to ask the bride's mother or maid of honor about the registry. I think putting on the website but not the invitations is just fine.

The website looks great to me!

Does anyone have the link handy to that really gorgeous laptop skins site? I want to show my MiL so she can customize her new netbook.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Pix, I would maybe say ALL INFORMATION CONCERNING THE WEDDING -- that way people will go there to see.

And all I could see was this: "Dress up and join us for a cocktail party to celebrate our marriage! We will enjoy a selection of tasty hors d'oeuvres and desserts by gourmet chef (and Ramsey’s at the Club owner) Jesse Genovese,"

I don't understand the parenthesed statement. Is it an inside joke? Cause I just look at it and no comprende.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I had plans to do stuff outside for a bit today, but the wind is fierce out there. Not nessicarily really cold, but hit by flying tree branch fierce

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

We're having ~40 mph gusts. My canoe got blown off the sawhorses it normally rests on. I'm hiding inside (after I took down the umbrella and secured everything I could think of).

We seem to be having brown outs -- which means I need to turn the stereo back on and reset the modem and router. I thought about laundry, but I am not sure I need to have more things on.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"Dress up and join us for a cocktail party to celebrate our marriage! We will enjoy a selection of tasty hors d'oeuvres and desserts by gourmet chef (and Ramsey’s at the Club owner) Jesse Genovese,"

To me it reads like "...desserts by gourmet chef Jesse Genovese, the owner of Ramsey’s at the Club, a well regarded local eatery."

Huh, okay. I just was clarifying that the chef was also the owner of the venue. I guess I just thought it was an interesting tidbit. Would it help to phrase it: "tasty hors d'oeuvres and desserts by gourmet chef Jesse Genovese, the owner of Ramsey's at the Club"? (The reception is at Ramsey's at the Club, as it says above)

Thanks for looking it over.

I also just redid the whole hotel section to help out-of-towners. My head hurts.
