1-800-Registry Launches to Revolutionize Wedding Planning, Honeymoon and Home Registry

LAS VEGAS, March 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- 1-800-Registry, a full-service wedding advisory organization, announces its launch today. The site guarantees to redefine the bridal industry standard for online collaborations that help newlyweds start their lives off on the right foot. The world's first comprehensive online service for brides and grooms will build long-term relationships with couples by featuring unique tools available only on the website such as employing the Personalized One-On-One Concierge service to plan their wedding, their honeymoon and even their dream home purchase -- all while stretching their budgets with the Reward Dollars program that can easily add up to thousands of dollars.

"We are one-of-a-kind and purposefully so," says Donne Kerestic, CEO of 1-800-Registry. "With decades of wedding industry experience, we created 1-800-Registry as a vehicle to support brides in a way that no one else has before. The logistics of planning a wedding, honeymoon and life afterward have become far more complex and our goal is to provide all of the services couples need to make the process easy, fun and affordable."

Unlike most online registries, 1-800-Registry allows your friends and family to contribute to your future in a more substantial way than just a crock pot or toaster. The Honeymoon Registry and Home Registry are designed to grant family and friends access to contribute to your honeymoon and home down payment by forgoing physical gifts and supplying a monetary amount to the purchases that matter the most.

1-800-Registry makes it simple for couples to plan their weddings and save for their honeymoons and home down payments with an easy-to-navigate website. For wedding registry services, the site allows couples to access a list of vendors nationwide. A local vendor model is also available in select markets including Southern California, Houston and Dallas, Texas. This local vendor model will be expanding to additional cities as well, throughout the year. This service allows brides and grooms to connect with trusted and reliable companies, whether regionalized (for the cities listed above) or nation-wide (for all other areas in the U.S.). Other features available on the site include:

• Identify the top florists, photographers, venues, caterers, and other event vendors within a specified price range, schedule and location;
• Coordinate and share wedding and registry details with friends and family. Brides can post photos, blogs, and updates as well as collect RSVPs on 1-800-Registry's social networking platform;
• Opt into utilizing the Personalized One-On-One Concierge service, where brides can obtain the help they need in planning every aspect of their wedding and beyond the big day;
• Plan every aspect of the perfect honeymoon – from destinations to activities to lodging;
• Discover, finance, and purchase the couple's dream home.

"Through our user-friendly website and personalized, one-to-one planning services that cost little to nothing, couples can have fun planning their futures together and share as much or as little as they want with friends and family," Kerestic says.

Through 1-800-Registry's unique incentive program, Reward Dollars, brides can earn up to 10% of their money spent through the participating wedding vendors.  With the average couple spending over $25,000 on their wedding, they can earn up to $2,500 towards their honeymoon or new home.  This motivates couples to utilize 1-800-Registry's Bride-Certified Wedding Specialists for all matrimonial needs, ensuring the wedding of their dreams will come true.
