FIVE SIMPLE STEPS

Whether you set up online or instore, we are here to make this easy. Consultations take about 2 hours or you can be up and running in a few minutes if you set up online.

STEP 1 - SETTING UP YOUR LIST

We put the ease in easy... 

 

WHERE DO I START?

• It’s a good idea to have your wedding list set up about three months before your wedding and about a month before your invitations go out.

• You can set up your list yourself online or come into a showroom for a free consultation. Either way, your dedicated Account Manager will be on hand to guide you through the whole process.

 

DOING IT ONLINE

• Check out over 10,000 products in the Department store section of the website.

• You can set up your list when it suits you and begin to add gifts immediately. In fact, if you’re running late with your gift list, Wedding List Co is the perfect solution.

 

MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR CONSULTATION

• Most couples choose to visit one of our showrooms for a consultation. Peruse through more gorgeous goodies than you can poke a credit card at over a glass of bubbly. Evening and Saturday consultations are no problem.

• Of course, not everyone can get to a showroom (in fact, many of our couples are based in other states or overseas!) - so take advantage of our Account Managers at the end of the phone to give you help and advice.

 

 

STEP 2 - LETTING YOUR GUESTS KNOW

Keep cousin Harry in the know...

 

INVITATION CARDS

• We recommend that you send our complimentary discreet inserts with your wedding invitations. These elegant cards feature our website address and telephone number and guarantee that your guests know where your wedding list is and make life so much easier for them. They will appreciate not having to ring around to find out where your list is or make pot-luck guesses at what you want.

• Over the years we’ve found that couples who do not use their Invitation Inserts do not receive as many gifts from their list as they’d hoped for. Moreover, they often wind up with the same problems faced by couples who didn’t have a wedding list in the first place: “Oh no! Not another platter!” is the common refrain.

 

BUYING A GIFT

• Most guests prefer to buy a tangible gift - something they know you will still be using in years to come, which they can do easily with the pictures on our secure site.

• We happily take orders over the phone for guests who may not have internet access.  Guests can also request a colour copy of the list or we can talk them through it over the phone.

• Guests outside Australia will find our service useful too - there is a currency converter next to the price in Australian dollars, and we accept most international credit cards.

 

KEEPING IT PERSONAL

• Guests can read a message from you when they visit your list - your chance to thank them in advance for their purchase, draw their attention to specific items or display your hidden literary talents!

• Each guest receives a complimentary card where they add a personal message (or display their literary talents!) which is attached to their gift for you.

 

 

STEP 3 - MANAGING YOUR LIST

You might have to compromise on your seating plan but with your gift list, you’re in control…

 

CAN’T MAKE UP YOUR MIND?

• Don’t worry if you can’t decide on your dream china right away, you can make changes online, anytime up until the gift is purchased.

• You’ll also be able to see what has been bought for you and by whom in your ‘Thank You Card List’.

 

WHEN IT ’S ALL OVER. . .

• The Wedding List Company offers you the convenience of making changes to your final list before we custom order the gifts. This means that unlike the department stores you can swap gifts around to complete sets or exchange a double up gift that is bought elsewhere without having to drive all your gifts back to the store.

• Once you’re back from your honeymoon (or before you leave if you’re too excited to wait), e-mail your Account Manager with any changes you’d like to make and how you’d like to spend the gift vouchers you’ve received.

 

READY, STEADY, TIME TO GET THOSE GOODIES!

• With all your changes made, it’s time to order your gifts.

• At this point, if you choose to buy any of the remaining items on your list, you will receive a 10% discount*. Great for completing a dinner set or that 1 pillowcase you weren’t purchased.

• Because you have the flexibility to change your list any time until it is closed, we will only order presents when you confirm your list and ask us to order it.

• If you choose anything which is special order or handmade (such as Legle de Limoge from France) it may take a little longer. You will be able to see details of any gifts that are special order via ‘Your List’ and your Account Manager will keep you up to date with the expected delivery date. If it’s any consolation, the waiting periods are the same for all wedding list services and retailers that place orders specifically for clients.

• Then it’s time to sit back, relax, and wait for all your lovely new things to arrive!

 

STEP 4 - RECEIVING YOUR GIFTS

And you thought Christmas only came once a year…

 

YOUR DELIVERY IS HERE…

• Your Account Manager will be in touch after about six weeks to schedule a delivery time on a Saturday. Large gifts such as white goods, BBQs or furniture will be delivered direct from the brand, Monday to Friday.

• We give you the option of having your gifts wrapped or delivered in our famous WLC bags. Lots of couples told us that because they chose the gifts themselves, unwrapping the gifts was not a surprise so they felt environmentally unfriendly wasting all the paper. In answer to this, we developed a fabulous big bag which you get to keep and use for packing, storage, moving, travelling...the uses are limitless!

• If you are based abroad, for a small administration charge, we are happy to arrange shipping for you. Alternatively you can arrange this directly your own shipping company.

 

TIME TO GET WRITING…

• And lastly… all those thank you cards!  A list is available online through 'Your List' where you can access what was purchased for you and by whom.  We do everything but write the cards for you...

 

 

STEP 5 - ENJOY THE BENEFITS LONG AFTER THE BIG DAY

 

HAPPILY EVER AFTER (AND NOT JUST WITH YOUR PARTNER!)Couples receive a 10% discount (excludes certain items) for life. Ideal if you would like to buy from your friend’s list in the future.

 

TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND SHOP SOME MORE…

We know that you’ll love us and want to tell your friends all about us! So, each time you recommend Wedding List Co to a friend who registers with us, you can choose from a range of gorgeous goodies worth $100.
