Registry wording on your website? Please help!

This is what we wrote:

 

First and foremost, we would like to stress that our present is your presense. We are so grateful for those of you that have chosen to join us on our special day, travelling so far to witness us get married in our dream location.

We realize that some may still wish to give us a congratulatory gift however, and we are appreciative of that.

 

From there I included the registry information...

This thread was helpful to me as well! Here is what I said based on previous posts:

 

If you are traveling with us for our wedding, your presence is the absolute best gift we could ever ask for. Gifts are welcome but certainly not expected. We are grateful to be surrounded by such wonderful people, and we cannot wait to celebrate with you all.

Please know that gifts are not expected, needed, nor required.  Your presence at our ceremony and celebration is the best gift that we could ever ask for!

However, to make things easier, we have registered at the following stores since we have had a few inquiries.

Here is what we used:

 

Where are we registered?  We are not. Your gift to us is your presence, whether in person or in spirit.  We understand that not everyone will be able to make it to Exuma to celebrate at the wedding with us.  We have invited you because it is important to us that we have your love, support and happiness as we begin our journey together as husband and wife.
