I just searched for information on one of my brides that I know has registered at multiple locations. On WeddingChannel.com two of her registries appeared. On the home page it states that they post the registry information for 15 stores.

On TheKnot.com her information did not appear at all, even though she is registered at Macy's. Their web site says that they post information for 8 different stores, but Macy's was not among those listed. Perhaps your experience was an anomaly.

Well, I don't get it. I just tried it again with for a different couple. When I put weddingchannel.com in the menu bar and hit "enter," it redirects me to http://macys.weddingchannel.com/catalog/fds/macysDivisionalHome.action. The top of the page says "Macy's Wedding & Gift Registry/Weddingchannel.com," the bottom says "macysweddingchannel.com," and when I put in the bride's name, it only gives me a Macy's registry.

I also tried theknot.com, and that gave me registries for two other stores -- but not Macy's.

Anyone know anything about this?

I don't get it either. I just typed weddingchannel.com into the menu bar and I was directed to the following:
http://www.weddingchannel.com/home.html. I could see being directed to the Macy's site if you placed Wedding Channel in the search area of Google or Yahoo, but not if you typed it in yourself.

Now, that IS weird -- why did it direct each of us to a different URL (although apparently the same site)?

On top of which, when I tried the first couple again, this time it gave me one registry other than Macy's (I think Bed Bath & Beyond)-- but not a third one it used to (I think Crate & Barrel).
