Registry information is passed by word of mouth. You may put it in your shower invitations, if you want, although I still think that is tacky. It is considered bad taste to put anything in the wedding invitations regarding registry or gifts. Make sure your family and your wedding party know where you are registered, and when someone asks, they (and you) can tell them. Never, never put that information in an invitation. Trust me, the word will get out.

I think it is totally tacky to put them inside your wedding invitations. It really gives the impression that they are being invited and must bring a gift. You will find a few people will actually attent without ever giving you a gift, just as you will receive some pretty off the wall gifts.
Some people say it is also tacky to enclose the registry cards with your bridal shower invitations, but that should be up to the person or people hosting your shower.

Nothing goes in the wedding invitations except an RSVP card and directions to the church/hall. Never never mention any sort of gift in a wedding invitation! If you must, the little cards can be put in the bridal SHOWER invitations (although I think it is much classier to have it spread by word of mouth and not use those little cards at all). Your first instinct is correct, don't let anyone tell you different!

I actually read an answer to this in an advice column that advised not to. The columnist said its tacky. I tend to agree. I can see the host of a shower including a list of places you are registered in a shower invite, but not your actual wedding invitations. At a shower, you are expected to bring a gift.

You never put anything like that in the Invites. Give them to whoever is giving you showers and let them put the cards in the shower invites. It's considered to be rude to put them in the wedding invites. Good Luck!

No, don't put the registry cards in the invitations. You're right on this one. If the guests want to find out where you're registered, word of mouth travels fast. They will find out if they want to. Plus, cash is always nice!

Not in your wedding invitations, no. They should go with the shower invitations; give them to whomever is throwing that for you.

I just want to say thanks for asking this question because I didn't know for sure. We have a wedding website and there are links to our registry on our website.

No, and not in the bridal shower invites, either. If people don't know what to buy, they will ask for ideas.
