Registry

We've had several people ask us about this, so here it is. We had to be different, just like everything else we're doing. Well, our registry is also non-traditional.

Our registry can be found online at: http://www.myregistry.com/public/April-McCormick-Eli-Rivera




This website allowed us to register for items at any store. It includes links to buy the item online if you wish, but you can also buy it in person.

You can purchase any item at any store, online or offline. You do not have to purchase through that site if you don't want to. (Note: Some things we chose may only be available at a single store.)

If you buy "offline", you simply go to website and mark off any gift you picked out. That will block it off so that others do not buy it.

To buy online, click on "view or buy". It will open a top bar on your web browser, take you to the website that sells the item, and give you our shipping address.

Hotel Info

You should all be receiving your invitations soon! Maybe you're here because you already got yours! Great!

Well if you don't live in Vegas and are wondering where to stay, here are some general recommendations. We are not doing a "room block" because there's so much variety in Vegas, and different people want (and need) different things.

As of the date of this post, room prices ranged as low as $38 and as high as $329 for standard rooms. Don't forget about all the fancy suites in town. November can be a slow month for Vegas, so we hope that means you all get some great room deals!
