If you are like many engaged couples who already have all the pots and pans they can use, have you thought of creating a
honeymoon registry to receive the gift of experiences instead of things? Modern-minded couples are flocking to alternative wedding registries as a practical and fun solution when they dont have a need for traditional wedding gifts.
What is a Honeymoon Registry?
A
honeymoon registry is a
gift list, exactly as you would see at a department store, but instead of a list of pots, pans, linens and towels, its a list of:
Nights in the honeymoon suite
Breakfast in bed
Excursions
Wine at sunset
A new camera to capture it all!
How Does It Work?
Make it a fun experience for guests to shop from your honeymoon registry. Similar to a traditional gift list, theyll want the option to contribute to a specific part of your romantic escapade, so tell your guests a bit about where youd like to go and break up the trip into parts as suggested above.
Destination unknown? Not to worry, you dont have to share all the specific details. In fact its okay to say that you havent made up your mind yet, but instead say that youre hoping to go somewhere Tropical, like a resort, or Rustic, like the mountains, and then create a list of general gift items and activities that would suit any locationAnywhere you go, youll still need transportation, lodging, meals and of course a little pampering! In the end youll have the flexibility to spend where, when and how you want.
