My finacé and I have opted for a short engagement, leaving little time for things like showers and such. Since this will be her second and my first marriage, she doesn't need quite as much stuff as I do. So, the wedding registry that we've created on Amazon.com is focused on me and the kids. I've never listed in a reigistry before, and certainly not online. Like I said in a previous post, a donation to our PayPal wedding fund is just as useful as a gift from the registry.
