+====== Setting up an Amazon Wedding Registry ======
+Amazon Wedding Registries provide a particular advantage over standard Amazon Wishlists.  Amazon Wedding Registries allow you to enable "Group Gift" for high dollar items which allows supporters to contribute partially to an expensive item (such as an additional 3D Printer).
+To setup an Amazon Wedding Registry follow these steps:
+  - Visit https://www.amazon.com/wedding
+  - Click the yellow **Create your registry** button in the center of the screen
+  - Make sure //Wedding// is chosen under **Select an occasion:**
+  - Make sure no personal information is listed under **Your name** or **Partner's name**
+  - Click **Continue**
+  - Set a **Date**, ideally, a few years in the future
+  - Delete the entry in **Guest count (optional)**
+  - Choose an **Address** that reveals minimal personal information (ie: create an Address that doesn't have your full name listed)
+  - Leave **Allow items to be shipped to my address from all sellers.** checked
+  - Uncheck **Allow guests to ship non-registry items to my address.**
+  - Click **Continue**
+  - Ensure //Shared// is selected under **Privacy**
+  - Uncheck **Send me registry emails**
+  - Click **Create**
+Now you can view items on Amazon and use the **Add to Wedding Registry** button to add the item to the Wedding Registry.
+Note that a Wedding Registry will automatically come populated with a $1,000 Gift Card "Group Buy" Gift.  Decide if you want to keep, change, or delete this item.
+Once items are in the Wedding Registry you can click **EDIT ITEM** on a high priced item and and toggle the **Group Gift** slider.  You can also change the **Need:** quantity, choose to toggle **Prioritize as Most Wanted**, and/or **Add Comments for Your Guests** to tell supporters how you will use the item.
+====== Other Platforms ======
 You can also set up a wishlist on another platform, but Amazon does make it especially easy to accept donations from others without exposing your home address.
