One study of 35,000 couples recently found that Amazon is now the most popular wedding registry site in the US.
- Amazon is the country's most popular wedding registry site, thanks to its huge selection of items, convenient and efficient delivery system, and top-notch customer service.
- Bed Bath & Beyond, Target, Crate & Barrel, and Zola are also popular places to start wedding registries.
- We compared the pros and cons of each of these sites below. Important factors to consider include return and exchange policies, availability of physical locations and in-store consultants, and group gifting policies.
When most of us think of wedding registries, we probably still associate them with the big, traditional department stores. However, according to one source, the soon-to-be-wed have definitely moved past the Macy's and JCPenneys of yore in favor of other sources.
Joy, a free wedding planning website and app that brings the many parts of wedding planning into one simple interface, recently found that Amazon is now the most popular wedding registry site in the country.
To reach this conclusion, Joy randomly selected a sample size of 35,000 weddings from its user base and analyzed the registry usage by both couples and guests. The results were surprising and show some interesting geographic patterns - Amazon dominates the coasts, Target the Midwest, Bed Bath & Beyond the South, Zola the Northeast, and Crate & Barrel in its home state of Illinois.
With so many wedding registry options to consider, Joy's team of wedding experts helped us compile some pros and cons of each of these most popular registries, so you can decide which one works best for you.
