There's a 'regDomain' parameter you can add to your hyperlinks to the 
registration system so that people are presented with different 
registration forms.  I don't think I've tried it myself off the top of my 
head, but I'm pretty sure it works from code.

What happens is that the Admin is emailed an email when the user completes 
the registration that provides a link to access the registration 
information and approve or deny the registration.  I have not personally 
used it in my own projects yet.. so I can't tell you more about it for 
another couple of weeks or so when I will be digging into it more.

Shash made a "registration" html page you might want to check out, but I 
suspect you've areas that may be undocumented. :)
