The registry@Macy's website, WeddingChannel.com, is broken into six easy-to-navigate areas that span the practical and emotional needs of everyone associated with the special event. The centerpiece of the site is the Wedding Website, which functions as the ultimate planning and information resource for everyone from the engaged couple to acquaintances who want to share in the experience.

WeddingChannel.com's five other areas -- Fashion & Beauty, Shopping, Registry, Planning Tools, and Travel -- are fully integrated with the Wedding Website to provide a comprehensive wedding planning environment.

WeddingChannel.com's Fashion & Beauty feature is the premiere Internet wedding resource for wedding attire and beauty advice. Users can browse the most comprehensive, interactive bridal attire catalogs online, with a photo gallery of over 30,000 bridal fashion and accessory images from all the leading designers, including Alfred Sung, and Bill Levkoff.

The Planning Tools section offers tools, advice and expert viewpoints to help couples navigate the complex process of planning a wedding. The process is simplified when the couple uses such features as:

• The Budget Planner, an interactive budgeting tool which the couple can customize.
• The Local Business Directory, a database of local vendors which is searchable by city, state or zip code.
• The Wedding Website, where couples can share their engagement story and event details.
• The Planning Checklist, where couples can track their wedding planning and send email reminders.
• The Address Book, where couples can compile addresses, phone numbers, and other pertinent information about guests and wedding vendors.
• The Guest List Manager, a convenient way to create a guest list and track RSVPs and gifts.
• The Gift Registry, a convenient online and in-store registry with top brand stores.

The Shopping section provides a place where brides and grooms can purchase merchandise from bridal accessories to gifts for their attendants.  It's also a place where wedding guests can shop for gifts for the bride and groom without ever having to set foot in a mall.

The Gift Registry at WeddingChannel.com is  the ultimate in convenience for couples and their guests. Couples use the Registry Worksheet to create a comprehensive bridal registry, then bring the worksheet along when they set up their registry in-store. They can check their registry online any time, and see real-time updates showing all guest purchases. Guests can also find a couple's registry at WeddingChannel.com 24 hours a day -- and can purchase gifts online quickly and simply and even get them gift wrapped.
