Can we password protect our registry?

Unfortunately, we don't have an option to create a password for your registry at this time.

However, you can limit access by excluding your registry from search engines and Zola’s search bar under your privacy settings (see below). If you select “No” for both of these settings, your guests will only be able to find your registry through your direct URL. You can edit your URL here anytime.

Pro Tip: If you make a free wedding website with Zola, you can password protect your website. It also seamlessly features your Zola registry, so guests can conveniently shop it directly on your website. To learn more about our wedding websites, visit this page.
