Learn how to manage your wedding registry on Joy, from adding external links to customizing your welcome note and organizing your stores.

Updated over 5 months ago

Who doesn't love gifts? Sometimes it's a relief to know exactly what to give, without the pressure of finding that one-of-a-kind, clever, and beautiful present. That's where registries shine.

Of course, not everyone may want a registry on their website or app. You have the flexibility to add or remove this section as your preferences (or your sudden desire for that gravy boat you spotted last weekend) change.

Add external registry links

  • From the Registry page, click the "Manage" tab.

  • Under the External Registries section, click "Connect a Registry" and then your registry provider.

  • Add your registry link and click "Get Started," then "Next."

  • Now you have two options: Transfer or Sync.

    • Transfer: Manage all gifts right here in Joy.

    • Sync: Keep track of gifts on the store's site and display them here on Joy.

  • To transfer your registry to Joy select "Move Registry to Joy."

    • If you transfer your registry, you'll need to make it private on the retailer's site to avoid duplicate gifts. Learn how here.

  • To sync your registry to Joy select "No thanks, I’d like to continue adding gifts through (retailer’s name)."

  • And just like that, your registry items are displayed on Joy.

Feel free to add as many links as you'd like – it's super easy!

If we can't sync or transfer with your store, we’ll display the store's logo on your page. Guests can simply click the logo to visit the retailer’s site directly.

Add your personal Welcome Note

Give your page a personal touch with a registry message. This is the last thing your guests will read before browsing your registry list.

  • Head to the Manage Registry page and click on “Settings.”

  • Choose "Edit Welcome Note."

  • Let your creativity shine – update the text in the box.

  • Finally, hit “Save Note,” and you’re all set!

Reorder your stores

  • From the Manage Registry page, click the trusty pencil icon under the External Registry section.

  • Drag and drop your registries into your preferred order.

Delete an extra registry

  • From the Manage Registry tab click the trusty pencil icon under the External Registry section.

  • Select "View" next to the registry you wish to remove.

  • Click "Delete Registry and Gifts" and the registry will be removed from your website.

And that’s it! Managing your registry on Joy is a breeze. Add, sync, or transfer registries, jazz up your welcome note, and organize your stores with just a few clicks. Now, sit back and let the gifts roll in. Happy planning!
