Shower Invitations
Why can you add your gift registry to shower invitations, but not to wedding invitations?

So first, let me see if I have this right:

1. It is acceptable etiquette to register for Baby Shower gifts and to include where you are registered on the invitation.

2. It is acceptable to register for bridal shower gifts and include the registry on the invitation.

3. It is acceptable to register for wedding gifts, but it is not acceptable to include this information on the invitation.

4. Is it acceptable to register for birthday gifts?

Does anyone have any idea why you can include registry info on some of these things and not on others, because I'm baffled?

You are not throwing your own shower and the purpose of a shower is to shower the bride with gifts. Therefore stating where she is registered is helpful. The bride and groom throw their own wedding and the point of a wedding is not to give gifts.

It is highly inappropriate to register for baby shower gifts for a 2nd or 3rd child. It is inappropriate to mention gifts in any way when you are inviting someone to an event. It makes a gift feel obligatory when it is not.

As for birthday parties, usually the birthday child makes a list. I don't know that we'd call it a registry as the gatherings are usually quite small. But for smaller gatherings, an invited person would usually call the mother and ask what the child's interests are this year.
