Chris Easter’s Experience
-
Owner
TheManRegistry.com
(Retail industry)
August 2007 — Present (2 years)
TheManRegistry.com launched in March 2008 as the first online wedding gift registry and wedding planning resource for grooms. They have recently launched the web's first groom-focused wedding vendor directory that already showcases over 5,000 local vendors.
We know that getting the average guy excited about wedding planning is a tough sell. That’s where we come in. Unlike any other wedding website in the market, TheManRegistry.com is the first wedding planning resource designed specifically for men... by men.
While most grooms have typically been left out of the wedding planning process, TheManRegistry.com is poised to change that. Our unique website puts men in the driver’s seat, providing grooms with the ability to register for guy-friendly gifts, research their wedding duties, and connect with local vendors. -
