The problem

Wedding gifts should feel thoughtful — not stressful.

Traditional registries can feel too formal for some couples, while leaving guests to guess often leads to duplicate, impractical, or unwanted gifts. HintGifts gives you a private, gentle way to share ideas and preferences with the people you choose.

Guests keep asking what to buy

Duplicate gifts are hard to avoid

Formal registries can feel too rigid

The solution

A softer alternative to a wedding registry

Create a private wedding gift hints page with practical ideas, experience gifts, home preferences, and things you would rather avoid. Share it by link or QR code, and guests can reserve gifts anonymously.

Nora & Alex — September wedding

We've lived together for six years, so the flat is mostly full. These are the few things we'd genuinely use, plus one or two treats. Your being there is the real gift.

Good to know

  • Anything posted is easiest before the 10th — we're away after the wedding.
  • Several guests have asked to group together on the cooking class.

Please avoid

  • No dinner sets — we have two.
  • Nothing that needs hand-washing.
