Create a wedding registry
as his look

The wedding list is a tradition that has evolved over time to meet the needs of newlyweds. In the past, it was common to offer wedding gifts to help new couples start their life together. Today, the wedding list helps guide guests and respond to the real desires and needs of the bride and groom.

With the advent of the digital age, the wedding registry has become fully customizable, offering the bride and groom an infinite number of possibilities: jackpot, practical and decorative objects, works of art, services or unique experiences. The options are now multiple.

Among the key players in the sector, our partner A thousand and one lists has been supporting couples in creating their wedding list since over 25 yearsThis tailor-made support constantly adapts to the expectations of the newlyweds.

With this expertise, the team is now sharing its valuable advice to guide future brides and grooms in creating their wedding list.

Why create a wedding list?

More and more future brides and grooms are choosing a wedding registry, and this is no coincidence. The wedding registry offers many advantages for both the bride and groom and their guests.

For loved ones: simple and secure participation

With a wedding list, your loved ones can contribute to your union with complete peace of mind. More personal than an envelope slipped into a ballot box on the big day, they have a secure digital kitty which allows them to participate in your happiness and to project themselves into a gift, even from a distance (practical for those who will not be able to be there on the big day!). Whether for a specific gift or a simple participation, they can contribute without risk of duplication and with the certainty of make you happy.

For future brides and grooms: a wedding list like a kitty!

Your wedding registry is much more than a choice of gifts: it is a tailor-made kitty to spend as you wish, with a major advantage if you open it at Mille et une listes. Unlike a classic kitty subject to commissions, here, each participation can be used freely at their partners (Galeries Lafayette, La Redoute, The BHV Marais) with 5% cashback. Enough to make your dreams come true, whether it's fitting out your home, treating yourself to a honeymoon or financing a project that's close to your heart (first purchase, renovations, etc.).

What criteria should you use to choose your wedding list?

Choose your favorite a well-secured money collection service, it is essential. When it comes to managing the contributions of your loved ones, it is essential to choose a wedding registry that guarantees maximum security of payments as well as protection of the funds received by the bride and groom. By opening a wedding registry at A thousand and one lists, you benefit from the expertise of a key player in payment, Xpollens, a subsidiary of Groupe BPCE, guaranteeing secure transactions for your guests. In addition, the funds collected are protected and your expenses (whether by bank transfer or with Mille et une listes partners) comply with the strictest security standards, for total peace of mind.

Your wedding is unique, your wedding registry should be too. When choosing your wedding registry, make sure it offers you real freedom of use. Some services only offer wishlists without collecting money (guests must go buy the gifts and bring them on the day). Others offer collecting money but you can only spend your list in the store (Le Printemps or Le Bon Marché). 

Conversely, Mille et une listes works like a kitty, giving you the possibility to spend where and how you want, while offering you an advantage when you spend with their partners (Galeries Lafayette, BHV Marais, La Redoute).

Advice from a thousand and one lists

When should you submit your wedding list?

For your loved ones who would like to organize in advance, we advise you to create your wedding list around 4 to 6 months before D-Day. This gives your loved ones time to discover your desires and participate in them calmly. By integrating it into your wedding invitations or website, your loved ones will be able to contribute in a flash!

And good news: your list remains editable until the wedding, so you can send it without pressure and adjust it as you wish.

How to create a wedding list that reflects your image?

On Mille et une liste, the most exciting part of creating the list is probably the customization. The bride and groom start by customizing a cover photo that reflects their couple, for a beautiful introduction that will welcome guests when they consult the list. Once the list is created, you can integrate the gift(s) of your dreams, whether it is furniture, decor, experiences or even your ideal honeymoon. 

What gifts should you add to your wedding registry?

A wedding list is no longer limited to traditional linens and matching tableware! Today, it adapts to everyone's desires with a variety of gifts ranging from high-tech to household appliances, including decorative objects or even fashion. 

A big trend this year remains experiential gifts, for memories engraved for life. So, why not treat yourself an unusual weekend or even a honeymoon ? Anything is possible! With Mille et une listes, the bride and groom can create personalized gifts (or even book their most beautiful honeymoon with their Travel partner) and add everything that makes them happy to their wishlist, for a list that really suits them.

Tips for making your wedding list a success

The best advice we can give you is to take the time to create your list together, several months in advance. This must be above all a moment of sharing and pleasure, where you choose gifts together that reflect your image.

Also think about vary the gifts by adding both home items and multimedia or even a trip to satisfy all your desires. And above all, adjust prices so that each of your loved ones can contribute according to their budget, from small pleasures to big projects!
