HONEYMOON

oneymoon registries have been around for over
a decade now, yet some couples shy away, feeling
that it’s a tacky way to ask for money. No matter
how you slice it, a registry is a polite way of asking for
gifts; a honeymoon registry simply asks for them in a
form that leads to amazing memories. Below are some
pros of having a honeymoon registry.
FUND
THEY’RE NOT JUST FOR HONEYMOONS
The idea behind a honeymoon registry is paying for couples to enjoy unique experiences while
traveling. So if you’re having a destination wedding, it’s totally acceptable for your honeymoon
registry to also include pre- and post-wedding activities.
THERE ARE OPTIONS FOR EVERYONE

Don’t worry—your aunt doesn’t have to fly to the Jamaican
resort to buy you a spa certificate for hot rock massages. She
can easily do it online through the honeymoon registry
website, which eliminates the need for guests to find a specific
store and helps them avoid shipping costs. As an added bonus,
guests who couldn’t make the wedding can now feel like they’re
part of the party by pitching in.
If you’re having trouble thinking of activities to add to your honeymoon
registry, simply consult our agency. After all, planning activities
and excursions at destinations around the globe is our specialty;

considered. Since we work with couples all the time,

registries are the best to use.
Is your cousin Eddie a traditionalist who insists on buying you a stainless steel fondue set?
No worries. Many honeymoon registries allow you to include physical gifts for those who simply
want something tangible, which is a great opportunity to add a sweet set of Samsonite hardsides
or other travel items you might need.
