Thanks for the thoughtful feedback trb. The site is targeting a fairly specific market... basically, people who are planning events that normally have gift-giving associated with them. Weddings, baby showers, engagement parties, and the like. It's common practice to make a gift list somewhere so that people know what you want. I could probably do a better job of immediately communicating that on the site.

I'm most definitely not a designer by trade, so the typography tips are much appreciated.

Ah, that was what my assumption. In that case, you are likely targeting everyone, so you should make it very clear what the benefit of your service is. Be very blunt, maybe something like "Manage your gift-getting for any occasion".
