Sorry guys, we don't have cool registry scanners to play with at TheManRegistry.com. But, we do have the web's only wedding registry for the groom.

With the growing popularity of man showers and couples showers – it’s never been easier for the groom to bring in some serious loot off of a groom-friendly wedding registry.

Traditional wedding registries are great for items like monogrammed bath towels, dishes, and bedding, but there are certain items that groom should handle — or at least have a hand in — selecting. After all, the man is half of the wedding equation. Plus, your guy friends will want to give you something they know you’ll enjoy. It’s important to take inventory of what’s important to the bride and groom as a couple. Do you enjoy being outdoors, staying home and entertaining at your home bar, or grilling out on the patio every night?

Non-wedding link of the day – We’ve been wondering why men are often referred to as “idiotic” or “moronic” by many women. I think we’ve finally found the answer with this great video fittingly titled ‘Why Women Stay Single.’

Cheers!

From time to time, we like to post about a cool new product that we’re carrying at The Man Registry – the web’s only wedding registry for grooms.

Portopong lets you to take the game of beer pong anywhere. All you’ll need is a flat surface to play on. Better yet, it floats… so play in the pool or at the beach. If you’re heading off to a ball game or concert, take the portopong with you for tailgating fun. The possibilities for places to play are endless with this very innovative portable beer pong table! Available in blue or pink.

We’ve had a lot of fun with the Maxam 64oz. jumbo flask and we want to share that fun with one lucky couple who registers between Friday January 9, 2009 and Thursday April 2, 2009.  All you have to do is create a wedding registry in that timeframe and you’ll automatically be entered into a drawing to take place on April 5, 2009. Furthermore, for every gift that is purchased off of your registry, we’ll throw in another entry for you. More gifts = more chances to win the jumbo flask!
